What would you do if you found yourself in medieval Japan? Make a deal with a samurai warlord! What could go wrong…?
In exchange for help, Ciara has to pose as the fiancée to the samurai lord, Katsuo. As she struggles to navigate new cultural norms and traditions, Katsuo is intrigued by the foreigner's curious behavior. Neither is actually looking for a real relationship, but can't deny the allurement.
As supernatural enemies close in, it becomes clear that Katsuo isn't the only one with a dangerous secret.
Sword and Mirror is the first book in the Yokai Treasures series, a timetravel romantasy set in sengoku-jidai (around the same time as the Shogun is set), richly inspired by Japanese folklore. Fans of Inuyasha will love it. Each book in the series follows a different couple, interconnected by the overall story about certain items of power.
