Trapped for ten years in a frozen cell, Ashlyn has spent her life as a prisoner, her fiery powers suppressed by the one man who controls her every move-Sethis. She doesn't know why he took her, or why he keeps her alive, but she knows one thing: she can't escape him. Sethis, a being of ice and shadow, holds her freedom and her power in his hands, manipulating her with ruthless control.
When Ashlyn's powers begin to awaken in unexpected ways, she's faced with an unsettling truth-she's stronger than she ever imagined, and the only thing standing between her and freedom is the man who keeps her locked away. But as the tension between them deepens, so does the attraction she can't ignore, pulling her closer to the very man she swore to hate.
With her past haunting her and her future uncertain, Ashlyn must decide: can she break free of Sethis's control, or is she destined to burn for the very man who holds her captive? In a world where fire and ice collide, Ashlyn must find the strength to reclaim her power before it's too late.

Between the blood thirsty enemy packs wanting to take what's his, a council that seems permanently against them and the arrival of his very unexpected mate, Ryan will have his work cut out to protect everyone he loves. He thought he understood his world and the people around him but things are not what they appear. Can he and his new mate figure out their entwined, dark history? Can they be the first to break the cycle? Or will they succumb to the curse that has haunted both their kinds? *********** They were under attack. Suddenly everything happened all at once. The two wolves partially shifted and attacked the closest enforcers to them. Throwing them into walls with ear shattering cracks. Although the enforcers were all paranormals, not one of them could best the brute strength of a shifter in one to one combat. Ryan could hear the growling of his pack far too close to the house for it to be a good sign. "They're coming!" Ryan saw the old seer point avidly towards the window as a huge timber coloured wolf crashed through the panes. **************** Highest ranking: #16 in eroticromance 09/05/2018 #01 in shadowwalker 02/08/2021 **Warning this book is for mature audiences and contains sexual scenes and swearing.

Monsters don't only appear at night. Sometimes they follow you around like a shadow even when the sun is shining bright. Evangeline didn't know when she left her house she would never be able to return again. The monster took a liking to her and used Evangeline as a personal puppet or even a pet. She will never be able to escape the strong grasp of the monster. This story has a Spotify playlist which you can find the link to that and my other social media on my profile.
