Wolf's Den: Dream Chaser
Behind the bar at Wolf's Den, Silasine Cain pours whiskey for monsters and gods alike. She's thirty-four, beautiful, and carefully ordinary - at least, that's what she wants the world to see. But buried beneath her skin is the blood of Epiales, the forgotten god of nightmares - a lineage her family has spent generations denying. When she dreams, the world listens. When she feels, shadows move. And when she loves, something ancient awakens. Her quiet life in the underworld of Somerset, Kentucky shatters the night Elias Ward walks through the door - a storm-drenched hunter cursed by the same god who sired her bloodline. He's spent years dreaming of her face, her voice, her scent of smoke and rain... without knowing she was real. Now he's found her, and the curse that binds them both begins to stir. Their attraction is immediate, magnetic - and wrong. Every touch feeds the god sleeping in her veins. Every kiss blurs the line between dream and waking, pleasure and ruin. The closer they draw to each other, the more the world around them begins to twist - as Epiales himself stirs in the dark, ready to reclaim what he lost. As desire becomes obsession and dreams bleed into reality, Silasine and Elias must decide whether their love is salvation... or the end of everything. In Wolf's Den: Dream Chaser, nothing stays buried - not gods, not curses, and not the kind of longing that can bring the dead to life.
