When he hung up his combat boots for the last time, Eric planned to enjoy a taste of the quiet life. Destiny had other ideas.

After being called out to help an old friend with a mysterious disturbance, Eric finds himself at the front line of a very different kind of battlefield; one where the weapons are unearthly, the stakes are high, and the enemies aren't human.

Alongside Cassie, his friend, fellow monster hunter, and begrudging surrogate sister, Eric makes it his mission to rid Missouri County of its supernatural scourge, but what started off as a simple job ends up costing Eric more than he knew he had to lose.

Bound by greenwitchwrites

#1 Werewolf (08.09.2022) Ever since her eighteenth birthday, Skylar Morgan has been tormented by the same recurring nightmare. Now, eight years later, she's finally found peace in a quiet town and opened the shop she always dreamed of-accepting the nightmares as a strange, unsettling part of her life. Until the newcomers arrive. Among them is a striking, rugged stranger whose presence changes everything. With Dmitri Makarov's arrival, Skylar's once-calm world unravels, revealing a reality she never imagined. Because Dmitri isn't just any man-he's a Lycan, the Alpha of a powerful nearby pack, and the sworn protector of the town she calls home. He isn't searching for a mate. But fate has other plans. When Hunters begin circling Skylar, Dmitri is forced to step in-only to discover that Skylar's secrets run deeper than either of them realized. And the nightmares she carries may be the key to a legend that binds them together... and a threat hiding in the shadows. With their fates intertwined, Skylar and Dmitri must uncover the truth before the puppeteer behind the chaos destroys them both. Bound is not your typical shifter romance and contains more mature characters with a focus on the relationship and character development. This book contains some curse words and explicit sexual scenes as Skylar explores her sexuality. This book is for a mature audience.

Prophecy Girl (Lacuna Valley #1) by FaithMcKay

Samantha's highest aspiration is to survive her family until she reaches the age of freedom, eighteen. Destiny? Love? Concepts that are as foreign to her as a sound night's sleep. With a younger sister who believes she has to power to make things happen by "praying" for them, a mother who goes from fine to monster without warning, a father that ignores it all, and another new school to adjust to, Sam doesn't have time to consider what she wants from her life. But if she thought she had problems before, she's definitely not ready for Nick, or all the questions he raises about her life. Are her dreams really predicting the future? Are her sister's powers real? What's her mother up to? She can't really have a destiny, can she? Can love be real, if some prophecy tells you it is? What's a seasonal? How many questions can you ask a werewolf before it bites you? Sam has gotten this far by tolerating everything, never standing up for herself, but when eyes turn toward her little sister, it's time to put up or shut up. Destiny. Does it really matter if your mother kills you first?

Celestial Bodies: Of Runts and Lycans by Myx_Writes

A rogue and a runt. A born and raised alpha. A boy with a secret. And a man bent on changing fate, no matter who gets harmed. ~ "Have you contacted the council about the rogues?" "Yes and they say that rogues don't band together in mass amounts." "Did you tell them about the lack of scents?" I roll my eyes at his question. "Of course I did." "And?" "And they think there's a witch out there causing havoc for the rogues," I scoff. "They said that only a witch could hide a wolf's scent but I can't seem to think of what witch would be out there doing silly experiments that won't benefit them. They'd be better off working with a pack if they had any interest there at all." "I get where they're coming from but this is mass reports across the country," he says pointing to the map. "I've been on the phone with packs all over the country having the same issues. We seem to have a higher concentration as of late," he furrows his brows. "Other packs have been having decreases of these rogues?" He nods. "This past week alone we've had six sightings and it's only Thursday." I feel tension rise behind my eyes as the realization hit me. "It's Celeste, isn't it. . ." ~ #8 in Werewolf #14 in dark fantasy #39 in Supernatural #26 in fantasy-romance #1 in rewrite #12 in new adult 💛 read ahead for free on webnovel 💛 (rewrite of ILR)
