Banging the Beasts Book 1: Banging the Beasts

by C. Swallow

Colette is a gifted Healer sent somewhere most people would run from—the lair of five cursed Beasts. Once human, these powerful warriors now serve the Fey, bound to brutal rituals that keep their strength alive but threaten their sanity. Her task sounds simple: help them stay balanced, stay human… and stay under control. Easy, right? Not exactly. Each Beast carries his own storm. One is a childhood friend she thought she lost forever. Another burns with a temper sharp enough to start wars. One craves affection almost as much as trouble, while another watches from the shadows like a silent guardian. And then there is the most dangerous of them all—the one who wants nothing to do with her… or so he claims. Surrounded by claws, secrets, and tension, Colette quickly learns that healing five Beasts may be the most thrilling challenge of her life.
