Lucia survived the Wilds. Now she has to survive the beast who bled for her—and the truth of what she is. Separated from the Blackwood Pack, and from Kaelen, the Alpha who swore to protect her but kept her in a gilded cage, Lucia is stranded on the edge of the human world. Her only protector is Ragnar. The pack’s Enforcer is brutal, possessive, and dangerously intoxicating—and he has no intention of coddling a fragile human. He wants to teach her how to bite back. But as care turns into something darker, something territorial, Lucia is pulled into a war she doesn’t understand. The Wilds are waking. The creatures are calling her my lady. Her power is changing. And so is she. Because the truth of Lucia’s bloodline won’t just change her… it will tear the shifter world apart. Caught between the Alpha who holds her heart and the beast who demands her soul, Lucia must decide who she is willing to become. Because to survive what’s coming, the healer must die— and something far more dangerous must rise in her place. ------------------------------------- Series: Book II of III (continues into final installment/ cliffhanger) Genre: Dark Paranormal Shifter Romance / Dark Fantasy Tropes: Dark psychological love triangle • Fated mates (twist) • “Who did this to you?” Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ (light–medium, high-heat moments, intense intimacy) Darkness: Medium — this is a dark PNR Content Warnings: Attempted SA • Graphic violence • Blood/gore • Injury detail (animal/shifter attacks) • Pregnancy struggles/infant loss POV: Alternating third person (Lucia, Kaelen, Ragnar) Vibe: Dark, gothic, wintery For readers who love monster heroes and heroines who embrace their darkness [Read More]
