This is an AI-narrated audiobook. When Charlie rocks up at a party investigating the mysteriously powerful and stupidly handsome vampire, Val Stern, she doesn’t expect to walk head-first into destiny. And it’s a fate armed with teeth. The plucky witch and her fairy sidekick know Val’s trouble. But Charlie’s on a mission to find out if he’s a murderer too. A sweet old lady wants Charlie to find out who helped her son’s killer. The city’s strongest vamp, Val, is number one on the list. Rumor has it he’s helping a dangerous kind of criminal that sucks people’s magic from their bodies like blood from a corpse. But to investigate, she’ll have to get very close. When she reveals her unique anchoring magic to Val, he hires her. It pulls her into his private empire and right into the messy love triangle between his wife and her sister, the vaunted vampire chosen one. Lisa might be a shining ray of purity and power, but Charlie soon discovers her secret. And it changes everything. Lisa isn’t the chosen one. She and her family have played an elaborate grift for decades, and when it pays off, it’ll level the city and shake magic to its core. Charlie still detests Val, but soon she’ll have to fight by his side. It’ll drag her closer and give the vamp the wrong idea. For Val will think he’s finally got the one thing he’s always wanted – a true witch to fight by his side until the end. … A Lick of Flame follows a sassy witch fighting to reveal her true identity in a crooked vampire world.
