When two archers who fought in the opposing sides of the war meet, it might not be the best idea for that meeting to take place in your home...
It's like stepping on eggshells times two for Kaja.
Humanborn, book 1 of Shadows of Eireland, is available in all online stores (including directly from me—own the file instead of a license for it!), Kobo Plus subscription, and via library apps:

Ready for an open world urban fantasy set in Dublin, Ireland?

In the war, the mythborn killed her friends, but now humanborn Kaja needs to work with them to uncover a conspiracy or Dublin's streets will run red with blood once more. Less than a decade ago, the Magiclysm, a tear between Earth and another place, brought magic to Ireland—and worse, it brought back the mythborn. The war that followed left Dublin scarred, and cursed Kaja Modrzewska with chaotic magic that will eventually claim her life. Struggling with wartime nightmares, Kaja seeks normalcy amongst the volatile peace working as an information broker when a series of explosions across Dublin threatens to reignite the war. Both sides are eager to blame the other, so Kaja reluctantly agrees to investigate. But finding the terrorists responsible means working alongside the mythborn’s elite killers, and uncomfortable wartime secrets coming to light. Kaja, who had saved a mythborn’s life during the war, finds out she has a life debt of her own, and as she juggles her allegiances and obligations, she’ll have to decide where her loyalties lie, with her old human allies or the mythborn.
Image featuring three covers for Shadows of Eireland by Joanna Maciejewska series (Humanborn, Myth-Touched, and Snake Bitten) with the quote: I watched them with curiosity, two sides of the same coin: one humanborn and one mythborn. Cherished by their own kin and feared by their enemies, they both excelled in archery, but never got to meet on the battlefield, never got to claim superiority over the other. And now, by fortune's whim, they got to meet on neutral ground. I could only regret that the neutral ground happened to be my home.
