Leah had a good life: a cushy job, cute boyfriend, and enough money to go on vacation. But when disaster strikes in the backcountry of Yosemite, she's left with no options. The appearance of a stranger seems like salvation—until she looks into his inhuman golden eyes.
A literal beast holds her life in his clawed hands. He's known for his brutality, killing all who oppose him without remorse. When people speak of him, they never use his name—they use the name of the city he slaughtered. And he claims to be her soulmate, demanding she remain by his side for a year and a day before he'll release her.
She always loved reading dark romances, but she never thought she'd star in one.
The crown prince protects her. Defends her. Tells her his secrets. In front of the Court, he's the Beast, but behind closed doors he gives her the chance to choose him, or not.
But a fae Court is a dangerous place for humans and beasts alike, and the silver-eyed Queen won't hesitate to put her son down like a rabid animal if she finds the opportunity. When his sword can no longer protect his soulmate, he'll have to choose whether to become the nightmare the world expects, or stand as the King she wants him to be.
When he holds out his hand, she'll have to make a choice. Her family—or the monster who stole her from them.
And the monster just might win...
Captured by the Fae Beast is a complete, stand-alone novel loosely inspired by the story of Hades and Persephone. This passionate tale of loyalty and challenge will sweep you off your feet with a swoon-worthy romance perfect for fans of reluctant soulmates and monsters with hearts of gold.
