Bijou, born a shapeshifter of the Brotherhood of the Dog clan, has pursued a scholarly career. Her only interests in life are the translations of the ancient scrolls of her clan.

Magnus Pompey assumed alpha position after the death of his father, not only is he alpha of the Legion clan he is also the mayor of Cherry Blossom.

Torrid Tarot - Bijou’s Bonds is a magical story with pertinent problems to overcome. Number one would be the fact that Bijou shames the alpha, two would be his righteous anger, and three, the automatic enmity of the two rival clans.

Anh Leod takes us on a journey of understanding in Torrid Tarot - Bijou’s Bonds. When these two meet, mating magic happens and though these two have nothing obvious in common other than a physical attraction, they know to break the bond both would die. Magic plays a heavy role in this paranormal snack, Bijou’s search for it in the scrolls, and Pompey’s acceptance of it as normal. This can be read as a stand alone, but I will be reading Lucky Number Seven soon, which is the first book in this series. Thank you Ms. Leod for a delightful bite into the shifter world with Torrid Tarot - Bijou’s Bonds.
