The Beastkeeper's Temptation

In a world where both the sands and the heart are unyielding, Miss Calliope Wright must learn that courage is born of hardship-and that love is often found where you least expect it.

Lady Calliope Wright has always been the obedient daughter of an earl, living under her father's strict expectations. But as her arranged marriage to the uninspiring Sir Reginald draws near, Callie's longing for freedom becomes impossible to ignore. In an uncharacteristic act of bravery, she escapes to the Sahara, determined to find her brother Robert, the only one who's ever truly supported her. Her hope? That Robert might help her escape this fate, or even convince their father to call off the marriage.

Lord Samuel Wright, however, is quick to act when he learnt that his daughter's attempt at escape when awry. Discovering that Callie had secretly joined Mrs. Addilyn Holt's notorious matchmaking service before her disappearance, he enlists Rogane To'ran-a reclusive Beastkeeper known for his skill in tracking and his bond with hounds abandoned by London's wealthy. Though Rogane has little interest in rescuing spoiled heiresses, loyalty to Mrs. Holt sends him on a pursuit across treacherous sands.

In the depths of the desert, Callie finds herself captured by ruthless traders who plan to auction her. Rogane arrives just in time to free her, and together, they face the desert's brutal heart. For Callie, it's a journey of self-discovery and courage; for Rogane, a test of resolve as he fights a growing attraction to the woman he's bound to return home.
