Requesting this book from the library months ago worked to my advantage.

Synopsis:

   Divided by their order. United by their vengeance.

Iraya has spent her life in a cell, but every day brings her closer to freedom—and vengeance.

   Jazmyne is the Queen’s daughter, but unlike her sister before her, she has no intention of dying to strengthen her mother’s power.

   Sworn enemies, these two witches enter a precarious alliance to take down a mutual threat. But power is intoxicating, revenge is a bloody pursuit, and nothing is certain—except the lengths they will go to win this game.

Book Beginning:

Jazmyne

Though the night is flush with stars, the sky still seems like a lid of earth closing atop a grave. 

Friday 56:

"If you're unwilling to talk, that's fine. You can listen." His hand darts out, quick as a hawk with its prey in sight, and grabs me. "I have something to teach you too." He's close enough to be a lover — or Death.

Q: Do you do most of your blog work on a computer, iPad, or phone? 

A: I use, what seems to be these days, an old-fashioned desktop PC. 

I am forever impressed with people who do all their editing, whether it be a blog or videos with a phone/tablet and not a computer/laptop.
