“What the hell happened to you?” he growled angrily, standing up in all his half naked glory. Big, tall, intimidating and strangely beautiful.

Reyna is heir to a hidden Queendom where men are myths and magic runs deep. She's trained to be powerful, poised, and loyal to her people—until an alien king crash-lands straight into her sacred realm and turns everything upside down. Casvan is huge, dangerous, and definitely off-limits. But when he calls her his mate, sparks fly in all the wrong—and oh-so-right—places. Their connection is wild, magnetic, and totally forbidden. As old truths unravel and Reyna’s loyalty is put to the test, she’s torn between duty and a bond that refuses to break. What happens when the one person you're told to hate is the only one who truly sees you?

She couldn’t have asked for a better life, so the day she leaves for college is heartbreaking… Until she meets a strange man on a plane who declares her to be a vampire—and a powerful one at that!

As his hand drifted up my neck, he felt like a beast. "You saved my life Juliette," he said. "And now I am bound to you. It is a bond that cannot be broken until my debt is repaid. Until I fulfill your deepest desires, I cannot, and I will not, let you go.”

When Juliette pulls a warrior back from the edge of death, she never expects the price to be a bond that binds her to him. Fierce, unyielding, and impossible to ignore, he swears he won’t release her until her heart’s desire is fulfilled. But what exactly does she crave? A bond forged in fire becomes a dangerous game of power, passion, and unspoken need. Every glance is a dare, every touch a promise—and with each moment, the line between captor and protector blurs. Juliette must decide whether the bond is her cage or her key… and just how far she’s willing to let him go to give her everything she secretly longs for.
