Rhea Dawson doesn't believe in monsters-not the kind that lurk in the woods, anyway. As a paralegal who's long since stopped reaching for more, she's built a life dealing with corporate villains who should be the stuff of bedtime stories. But when a case pulls her into a small mountain town filled with honest, salt-of-the-earth people, she finds herself entangled in a mystery that defies explanation. Shadows move where they shouldn't. Eyes watch her from the dark. And the only person she can trust is Beau Forrester-a rugged, enigmatic local who seems to be keeping as many secrets as the town itself.
As tensions mount between the tight-knit community and Rhea's law firm, she and Beau find themselves drawn together in ways neither of them can ignore. But the deeper Rhea digs, the more unsettling the truth becomes-not just about the case, but about her past. She's not just an outsider looking in. She belongs to this world... whether she wants to or not.
Because the monsters she never believed in? They've been waiting for her all along.

Thrusting her into their violent world, Maeve struggles to hold on to her humanity, making choices she never believed she would have to make. Disturbed but drawn to each of them. Will's bestial nature calls to her one moment and rejects her the next. While a powerful attachment to Ander's gentle soul comforts her, but every time they connect, she feels his darkness just below the surface. Will's entire life has been a war against monsters, alongside his best-friend Ander. Honor bound by duty, he is brutal, relentless, and uncompromising in his mission to protect the masses. He didn't understand how much his world would change after saving Maeve, or how she would shatter his convictions. Ander may have magical talents but in his mind, nothing will redeem him from the abomination he is. Bound by more than shed blood, Will, his adopted brother, and only friend. Together they seek and destroy aberrations that poison the world. Until Maeve touched his hand, there was nothing else but the mission. With her, Ander could see a different side of himself, a different life. This is a character driven story written from the 3 main characters POV's. It's a mature adult dark romance & contains dubious triggering situations that some might find offensive. If you want an instant, fearless heroine, Maeve won't be it. Her story is discovering who she is & what power love can bring versus kicking monsters asses. Power & money aren't the only things that make the world turn & those that wield the greatest power control destiny. If you're looking for heroes, Will & Ander are NOT it. If you're drawn to tortured villainous souls, you'll enjoy their saga.Complete
