Honeyed Waters

She is chaos in human skin-razor-edged, ice-veined, and unafraid to draw blood with nothing but her tongue. Shadows cling to her like a second skin, each one stitched with secrets she refuses to name. She carries her own ruin in her pocket, a temptation she fingers when the nights get too long, yet something in her still craves the taste of heat before the plunge. Fate has a way of answering such cravings-this time in the form of a man who looks like sin carved into flesh.

He is polished, well put together, flawless, and far too controlled-until one looks close enough to see the cracks. Beneath his perfection coils a hunger so consuming it borders on feral. His protection is not a choice, but a possession-obsessive, intoxicating, and ruthless. He doesn't just want her-he intends to claim her, worship her, and cage her, all in the same breath.

When their worlds collide, desire becomes a weapon, each touch blurring the line between devotion and destruction. In his arms, she may find the only refuge strong enough to survive what hunts her-or the fire that finally consumes her whole. Together, they are a warning and a promise: honey-sweet, poison-laced, and deadly enough to bring gods to their knees.
