THE DARK ESSENCE
OF RUSSIAN MYTHAs the head priestess of the ancient Solstice cult,
Marya must sacrifice a virgin every year. She copes with this gruesome duty by

the maidens' souls to maintain his youth and power. It is his power alone that
keeps Marya’s kingdom safe from all enemies—or so she was raised to
believe.When Ivan arrives on a quest to stop the virgin sacrifices,
Marya throws all her magic against him. To maintain her life—and that of her
father—she must destroy Ivan before he completes his quest. But can she find it
in her heart to do so?Baba Yaga, Leshy, Vodyanoi, and the ancient animal
deities come alive in this beautifully crafted romantic story that will take you
into the authentic world of Russian fairy tales—with a dark, sensual
twist.
