After saving Layla from another date gone bad, he has a simple proposition: one month of no-strings dating.

You are mine now. Mine to play with. Mine to break. He is secrets, danger and passion. He is forbidden sin. And now he holds the key to destroy all I hold dear.

It has the ability to break kingdoms… and tear down the wall that separates the human world from the dangerous, wyld magic of the fae. He knows that I will do anything to protect my family. Even follow him beyond the wall, into his lands.

En él presenta una visión original de la religión cristiana, que Chesterton ve como una respuesta a las necesidades naturales de los seres humanos, la «respuesta a un acertijo», y no como una verdad arbitraria recibida de alguna parte extraña a la experiencia humana.

My bonds are broken. Gone. I'm left alone to pick up my shattered pieces. A bondless, pregnant omega. It feels like I can't breathe without them. We were all each other had in the world. Or so I thought. One of my alphas had a brother that he kept secret for ten years. A twin brother. Link shows up out of the blue with his pack, wanting to help me. But I can't look at him without longing for someone I'll never see again. They think they can fix me, glue all my broken pieces back together. Joke's on them. My jagged shards will never fit back together again.

And she has a monthly book club that everyone is dying to get invited to. Literally.
