The Elven Spymaster's Thief (Elves of Eldarlan Book 1)

In a world inhabited by elves, woodwose, gargoyles, brownies, and other magical species, humans frequently encounter these beings. Avril is an exception—she has successfully avoided all elves until her master orders her to steal a dagger from the one elf she most wants to evade: the elven spymaster of Eldarlan. Bound by her indenture, she must comply. She plans a quick theft, but her mission unravels when she discovers the spymaster knows far more than expected. Illeron's life revolves around gathering, analyzing, and sharing information. His brother suggests he needs a distraction from this consuming work. When a human woman breaks into his study to steal his dagger, Illeron sees an opportunity and offers her a bargain she cannot refuse—one that sets in motion a fate neither anticipated. This fantasy romance novella features banter, flirting, and romantic moments between a human woman and an elf lord with opposing personalities and cultural differences.
