Publisher Description
Using her well-worn Tarot deck, magical-artifacts hunter Sara Wilde can find anything—for a price. And the price had better be right, since she needs to finance her own personal mission to rescue several young psychics recently sold on the paranormal black market.
Enter Sara’s most mysterious client, the wickedly sexy Magician, with a job that could yield the ultimate payday. All she’ll have to do is get behind Vatican walls… and steal the Devil himself.
But play with the Devil and you’re bound to get burned.
Pressure mounts for Sara to join the Magician’s ancient and mysterious Arcana Council, as militant forces unleashed by even darker powers seek to destroy all magic—including the young psychics Sara is desperate to keep safe. The Council may be their only hope. . . but it could also expose Sara’s own dark past.
From the twisting catacombs of Rome to the neon streets of Vegas, Sara confronts ancient enemies, powerful demigods, a roiling magical underworld about to explode… and immortal passions that might require the ultimate sacrifice. But oh, what a way to go.
No matter how the cards play out, things are about to get Wilde.

Wilde about Sara
The touch of the arcane and the personal interplay of Sara with the Magician as Sara goes on her personal quest to save the children keeps you turning the pages. Suspend your disbelief and enter a world where the mundane and the arcane meet. Sara is able to see more into symbols as her powers begin to expand, I can only wonder what mischief and mayhem will come her way and she works to save the young connecteds?
Entertainment, Excitement, Magic
Jenn Stark continues to work her magic. This second book was not disappointing. This writer is proving to be one of my favorites. I love how we learn Sara’s passion for saving young psychics who are being kidnapped and sold on the black market has been demonstrated in this second book. The reader is also pulled into the increased intensity of Sara's relationship with the Magician. Sara is introduced further into the world of the Aracana Counsil which plays an intrical part in the series. This second book has performed it’s role of full entertainment and desire to begin the third book now.
Good read!
This is a new author for me. I enjoyed the book very much, had it read in about a day despite life's normal responsibilities and interruptions. Interesting world, villains and "friends," and I have already purchased book 2 in the series.
