She's running from a past that left bruises. But the man she's running toward might leave scars.
Tess is a woman on the edge, seeking refuge in the forgotten desert town of Cinderfall. It's a place where dreams go to die, but for her, it's the only sanctuary from a monster she escaped. But this town has its own demons. The Stoneguard Motorcycle Club owns the night, and their leader, the enigmatic Malachi, is a man carved from stone and sorrow—a man whose hypnotic amber eyes see every secret she has.
He is her protector, but he is no hero. He's the leader of a club with a jaw-dropping, ancient curse. When the sun sets, they become something else—something monstrous. Malachi's claim on her is absolute, a primal and possessive pull she can't resist, but their forbidden desire is a beacon for the ancient evil they hunt. He offers her a world of steamy, breathtaking passion and unconditional protection, but only if she's brave enough to accept his chains.
To be with him is to become the key to a curse that has plagued his kind for centuries. To be claimed by him is to become a target. This isn't just a story of wanton desire; it's a thrilling and epic battle for survival. He demands her surrender, her trust, her very soul, promising a savage, sensual world that could either be her salvation or a beautiful, deadly trap.
Will she risk unleashing a nightmare to escape the one she's already lived? In a world of dust and demons, the only thing more dangerous than the monster she's running from is the one she craves**.**
