She was warned the dark was rude.
No one told her the dark could be royalty.
When Thalia answers the voice in her shadow,
she awakens Ronan...
the most feared fae king ever exiled.
Now she's bound to him.
Not as his prisoner.
Not as his bride.
As his tether.
And the courts will burn to sever them.

To werewolves, humans are maggots... Aurora is a human woman trapped in a werewolf pack-betrayed by her lover and forced into marriage with one twice her age. Then her fate spirals into nightmare.
