Publisher's summary

All Josie Framer wants is a man with fire magic—and to find the truth-knife that’s rightfully hers.

However, neither of these quests is going well.

After her latest date-turned-disaster, she's almost ready to give up—when she happens across the blade on the way home. Unfortunately, reclaiming her property makes her target of the Arcane Market, a nefarious underground trafficking ring for magical artifacts and magical beings.

To make things worse, she keeps running into Oliver Salamandras, a dangerously attractive fire elemental who’s on the run from his own hunters. Getting involved with him means more trouble. Plus he has enough baggage for an aircraft carrier.

If only he wasn’t just what she's looking for—right at the worst possible moment.

Faced with deadly foes and an irresistible stranger, a woman might just do something crazy.

Drastic.

Life-changing.

Buy now and enjoy a humorous paranormal romance with a side of twisty plot. Features a sensible firebird shifter with a feisty side, a rascally fire elemental with a tragic side, and a completely adorable wolf pup. Clean PG-13—there's heat, danger, and fighting, but nothing graphic.

The Arcane Market Adventures is a two-book companion duology to The Steel City Genie urban fantasy series. Best listened to alongside that series and great as a springboard.

Great audiobook!

I love the world building and the detailing of the characters in the story. The narration was pretty good. Nice and clear pronunciation. I love the fantasy elements in the story and who doesn’t love shifters. It’s a pretty good fantasy .

Great Fantasy

This was my first experience with Janeen Ippolito's work, and I enjoyed it. The story was magical. The characters were delightful. The plot was fascinating and contained flashes of humor. I am looking forward to the next book in the series. T. S. Burkhardt's narration was fine and entertaining. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

Great story, excellent audio performance.

I already loved this author’s world, and having one of the “side characters” from the Steel City Genie series get her own book was wonderful. The narrator captures the protagonist’s voice exactly as I had head her in my own reading. The only downside I found was that the other voices didn’t always feel as different as I would have liked. Still, this was not enough to distract my enjoyment!
