Laurell K. Hamilton
A Caress of Twilight
(the 2nd book in Merry Gentry series)
This one's for J., who brought me endless cups of chai and, for the first time, watched the process from beginning to end. He loves me still, and for all of you married to us artistic types, you know just how much that says about both of us.
