ebony is a loner, she's always been a loner, that was until she met max. BOOK ONE

When high-powered accountant Zena crashes into a mysterious stranger in her sleepy hometown coffee shop, she doesn't expect the spill to ignite a wildfire. Denver (infamous nepo baby, and something far more dangerous than human) has been watching her curves with predatory hunger. One steamy invitation to his newly renovated mountain mansion later, Zena's vacation plans dissolve in a blur of raw, filthy sex, possessive bites, and a secret she's only beginning to taste. From kitchen islands to roadside trucks, Denver marks her inside and out, claiming every inch of her body with a need that defies nature. But as the small town whispers and the lights flicker, Zena realizes her "accommodations" come with fangs, glowing eyes, and a month-long lease she never signed (yet can't bring herself to break).

Cassie Hamilton was supposed to be a pawn-brilliant, beautiful, and born to power. With a father revered as medical royalty and a mother seated on the board of a secret global organization, she was the perfect mark in a much larger game. Heath Ramirez knew what he needed: an alliance strong enough to reclaim his birthright-the throne of a Spanish kingdom lost to a French-backed dictatorship. Raised in exile, trained in shadows, Heath didn't come to Wellingtonshire University to teach. He came to conquer. But Cassie didn't play by anyone's rules. And somewhere between obsession, betrayal, and the moment she looked down at a pregnancy test marked with two faint lines... The game changed. Now, a child grows beneath her ribs. Not just an heir. A symbol. A weapon. A future king-or queen. And maybe-just maybe-something dangerously close to love. This story contains mature themes and is intended for readers 18+. All characters are fictional.

One man looks at her not with hunger, but with interest. And when asked what he wants in exchange for peace between families, his answer freezes the room.
