A fierce werewolf consumed by his past. A human used as bait. A connection neither expects. 

A MONSTER TO EVERYONE BUT HER …

Hans lives only for vengeance. No more Pack. No friends. Only the dark void inside him tormenting him about his past. Yet when he meets a dark-haired beauty, desire tears through him and changes everything. But werewolves never take mates, and to claim her would doom him and ensure the rising evil wins.

AN ORDINARY HUMAN TO EVERYONE BUT HIM …

One moment Briony’s eating in the tavern, and the next a necromancer has her tied up in a cave as bait for a werewolf. Stuck in the middle of a centuries old battle, she needs to escape. Now. Except when the werewolf arrives and she gets her chance, she doesn’t run. No—she helps him and decides to join him to face a formidable enemy who will do anything to kill her. And with each day that passes, every gentle touch, every silky purr, the werewolf claws his way further into her heart.

BOUND TOGETHER AGAINST AN ANCIENT EVIL …

They have one month to work together to take down a sorceress. One month to decide to remain together forever. Everyone in Briony’s life has left her, and she doesn’t believe in love anymore.  Secrets in Hans’s past prevent him from making Briony his. They may save the world, but will they save each other?

Excerpt

Hans held his breath as Briony shifted closer. Sweet vanilla swirled around him. He lowered his mouth to her neck, trailing up the column with his lips. Her skin was so smooth, with her scent the strongest right there—where her pulse skittered below her jaw. He licked it.

She wrapped her arms around his neck.

He nibbled at the spot she liked best, close to the hollow at her throat. “This is you and me. I don’t want you because of some rune.”

She didn’t answer.

“I want you to spend the night with me.” He put his lips on the soft shell of her ear. “I need you.” He purred a long velvety trill, and she rubbed against him.

“You aren’t fighting fair when you make that sound.”

“You want me. Only I can give you what you need. Satisfy you.” His mouth trailed along her shoulder, and when his teeth snagged in the fabric of her shirt, he growled—a short, frustrated grumble. Hans stepped back and put his hand out. They needed to go somewhere private. Just the two of them. All night.

Briony didn’t move. She stared at his hand, gulped in a large breath, and released it slowly. A maelstrom pounded in his chest and made it twist in pain. She wasn’t going to join him.

Her small hand slid over his palm and laced into his fingers.

A tingle shot up his arm, warming him and quieting the frenzy in his chest. He closed his fingers around hers like he held a baby bird. Precious and delicate.

He hauled her close and picked her up. Instead of going through the palace, he took the path through the forest to his bedroom. Briony ran her hands up his neck, along his face, her fingers desperate and hungry. Even with the cool air, he was on fire.

He kicked his door open and tumbled with her on the bed.

“You think the desire you feel for me is because of a rune?” He pinned her wrists above her head. “Everything you feel is because it’s me. Only me. Not some ancient symbol. I’ll tease you until you admit the truth.” He loosened his grip. “Unless you don’t think you can take it?”

Her pupils dilated. “I can take it. Prove it to me.”

He grinned. “Good. I’m not going to let you find release until you scream I’m right.”

Her eyes widened, and she froze under him.

He shifted back and released her wrists. “What?”

“You smiled.”

“I’m about to see you naked.” He tore her clothes off with one slice until only her undergarments remained.

She shuddered. “But you never smile.”

He ripped her undergarments off. “Are you ready for me to show you how much you want me? To see exactly what’s between us?”

Her pupils dilated. “Yes.”
