Eddie Peters is your typical boy next door, with just enough chaos pumping through his veins. Born and raised in Gunner, Tennessee, everyone loves him. But it's all skin-deep. He knows how to navigate small-town courtesies and polite talk just fine-it's real connection that's hard. A tragic string of failed romantic attachments taught him he might be good for a fun time, but not a long time. Cody Hill works at the Rolland Horse Ranch. He's always been no good with people, but horses he knows well. He's a man meant for a simple, quiet life. And if that doesn't include love, that's fine by him.

Companion sequel to "Fight or Flight". Can be read as a standalone, but characters from the previous book are present.

Book 4 of The Fated Chronicles The last place Peter Calderon-Heil should be is Antarctica. He's all things omegas are said to be-weak, fragile, and quick to submit. Travelling to the coldest continent on the planet isn't going to change that, but he's tired of waiting for a mate that does not exist, and staying at home, where everyone else is mated, is not an option. So, Antarctica. It's so vast, it's terrifying, but it's not the thing he fears the most, which means that he can survive it. What Peter doesn't know is that his greatest fear lives right beneath the ice, and has been for centuries. They've claimed the underbelly of the planet's most frigid region and carved their domain out with blood and fang. At the helm of it all? A vampire so fierce he might as well have stepped out of Peter's nightmares. Unfortunately for Peter, he's also the one who calls to his heart.

The blood he distributes through his company, Blood Bank, is refined, tasteless, and he wonders if he'll ever feel full again. Sven, his meddling, but well-meaning secretary, is worried about him, and after a desperate push, Sigmund makes an appointment at a company called Love Bites, that matches vampires who want to drink with humans who want to be bitten. There, he meets Casper Weiss, known as Cass, a human who shamelessly flaunts his enjoyment of being bitten and offers himself up as Sigmund's perfect match. They both have a lot to lose if their relationship were to get out; Sigmund's reputation and friendships are on the line, and Cass could lose his business if people thought he somehow corrupted the great Sigmund Pine. But they can't seem to stay away from each other, even when they know the risks. Join Sigmund and Cass on this journey of love, sex, and self-acceptance. Rated 18+ MATURE. There will be sex.
