Angels' Dance by Nalini Singh — book slip

Jessamy, a respected teacher and historian among the angels, has lived a life confined to the Refuge due to her inability to fly. Her world changes with the arrival of Galen, a blunt and rugged weapons-master from a martial court.

Despite his lack of sweet words, Galen is determined to win Jessamy's heart and give her the freedom of the skies she has longed for. Their growing passion is as exhilarating as it is dangerous, set against a backdrop of war and unrest.
