Beth Patterson didn't want any of this to happen, hell she wished it didn't happen to anyone, but sadly it does. It wasn't her fault that she was abused by the person that was supposed to love her, and that was her father. But when Beth finally has enough of his abuse she runs away and finds herself in a mysterious town before passing out. When she wakes up her whole life changes, literally. She's not living with her crazy abusive father anymore, oh no, she's living with her crazy Alpha Mate.

Harry's always lived vicariously though the illustrious fairy tales his mother crafted for him, even when it goes against everything he's supposed to believe in. But after a night of flames and futility, Harry questions every lesson he's ever been taught- especially the value of his own life. Caught in the disastrous catastrophe of a father devoted to a punishing Church and the threat of a dismal existence, Harry's own book seems to be withering at the seams. However, when Harry considers his fairy tale at an end, fate, God, some great force, decides that the cover of his story has barely been opened, and that the pages are waiting to be filled by the mysterious scrawl of a supposedly fictitious creature that dwells under forbidden waves. And it just so happens that Harry's ready to read.
