I ventured into the woods because I was sick of going unnoticed. I never thought the trees would be calling out my name. I never considered wolves. The wild at Moonshroud Vale isn't just alive-it knows I'm here. They say I am the Moonheart, the one who can break their centuries-long curse. Five werewolves, bound to the wood by magic and blood, believe I am their salvation. But the deeper I descend, the more I feel something inside of me changing-something old, something untamed. They're falling in love with me. I'm falling with them. But the bond that unites us will kill all that I thought I was. Can I save them without losing myself? And if I choose to release them. who will save me?

In a mist-shrouded town where each tide stirs up secrets, love could shatter the world-or heal it. Merbel Tidebane lingers on the edge of Virelle, drawn to the ocean she fears and the moon that haunts her. Stained with a ferocity that she cannot understand, she hides her werewolf life and craves for contact. And then the storm-and with it, a shipwrecked stranger. Anacobal Stormborne, silver-eyed and otherworldly, brings secrets as deep as the sea. He claims he dreamed of her: a wolf girl who will resurrect ancient magic. But prophecy has its enemies-and so does love. With the tide of fate rising higher, Merbel and Anacobal will have to fight betrayals, forbidden love, and the legacy of Merbel's bloodline. With the world at stake, can two jinxed hearts be able to become the keystone of harmony-otherwise will they foretell the promise of a war of magic? "Even if the sea rose up and the stars descended, I would love you-more than the sea, more than the world."

I was born during the Blood Moon, raised to protect the sacred borders of Lupinara Forest, and bound under ancient law to a mate I do not love. I am Coci Flameleaf, a werewolf more bound to duty than passion. My existence-a world kept from the humans unwittingly sharing it with us-is a world of silence, of secrets, and unbreakable tradition. Until the evening I found him-Elipha Moonhart-beaten and surrounded by rebel wolves, a scarred artist with eyes as dark as dusk and as old as secrets as the trees that are centuries old. Something inside me was stirred when I freed him-something forbidden, something fated. He is not like us. or at least I had thought. And now, the ancient prophecy that cursed my pack for so many generations stirs-through him. Elipha's change under the Blood Moon releases an elder truth than our laws. He is Moonborn-half man, half ancient guardian, and heir to a legacy that could bring peace among the fighting supernatural breeds... or destroy everything we hold dear. Where law and passion intersect not, and fate demands blood, I am left to choose: read fate written on pages long, or forge a new path through the flames of our desire. But power is not a singular event. And in the darkness of Drowmere waits something far more evil in wait. Will passion dictate over blood-bound past? Or will fate tear us asunder before we've even commenced the war?

"I told you to stay away," Evanora whispered, her voice wavering but defiant. Eros's cold smile widened. "You made your choice. You came to me, offered yourself that night. Now, you think you can run?" "It was supposed to be one night," she breathed, meeting his gaze. Eros traced her jawline, his voice low. "One night wasn't enough, tesoro. It never could be." She tried to pull away, but he caught her chin. "Look at me," he commanded. "You think I can let you walk away?" "I'm not yours," she whispered, trembling. His smile faded, turning dark. "You are. From the moment you gave yourself to me, Elena, you became mine. Body, mind, and soul." He pinned her against the wall, his lips brushing her ear. "And if I have to burn the world to keep you, I will." _________ Sometimes, a single mistake can either ruin your life or change it forever. Evanora Scott, the youngest and most powerful woman in New York City, had everything-a successful career respect, and control, and a singer as well an actress. But after finding her soon to be husband in bed with her best friend, she made a reckless decision. Heartbroken and drunk, she decided to give away the one thing she'd always guarded-her virginity. She chose the man in front of her, a stranger who radiated danger and mystery. Hypnotized by his charisma and the alcohol in her system, she surrendered herself to him, never expecting to see him again after that night. But she couldn't have been more wrong. She had fallen into the clutches of Eros Kane, the most feared billionaire of New Orleans. A man with more than just political power-he was the embodiment of terror and sin. In the mortal world, he was a billionaire with influence, but in the underworld, he was something far more dangerous. Lucifer. The King of Darkness. The creator of sin and ruler of aHell itself. After that one night, Eros couldn't forget her. She'd imprinted herself on his dark soul, and now, there was only one solution. She had to be his-forever. She has to become his wife....
