The Forbidden Chase

She's caught between two beasts. And neither plans to let her go.

In Camlocks - a town haunted by bloodshed and hunted by cursed shapeshifters called Bloodthropes - love isn't salvation. It's the deadliest game of all.

Rachel Morris never asked to be chosen. But Bloodthropes have rules, and every rule ends in blood. Fate marks her for sacrifice, trapping her between two dangerously beautiful boys who aren't boys at all.

Daniel is rage wrapped in silk. Trevor is secrets with a smile. Both are bound to an ancient ritual that demands her life. They were made to ruin her, not love her.

But monsters don't follow rules. And when they fall, they fall hard.

Now Rachel's heart is a battlefield. Desire is a weapon. And love? Love is the curse that could destroy them all. Because when beasts fall in love, they don't protect you - they claim you.

Trevor stepped closer, his breath mingling with hers. "I'm scared of falling in love," he said quietly. "Scared it'll heal wounds I've learned to live with. Scared it'll become my weakness... and steal my soul."

❖ ❖ ❖

"I know I don't own your heart," Daniel said, voice low and burning. "But if you let me in, I'll love you harder than he ever could. I'll erase every scar he left-until there's nothing of him left in you."

"Two monsters want my heart. Too bad it might kill all three of us." Rachel laughed, but it cracked at the edges.
