Hunter of the Tangle

Telok has survived the Tangle as a hunter and warrior, his scars proof of beasts slain and dangers endured, while the deepest wounds came from friends and family he could not save.

For years he has refused to let anyone into his hearts—until Lacey, whose intelligence, humor, and beauty seize him from the first sight of her fiery hair and green eyes.

Everything in him demands that he claim the human woman as his mate, yet she is small, soft, and unsuited to a jungle that treats her as prey.

When Lacey joins him on a long trek into the wild, he tries to stay distant even as protecting her means holding her close.

With the Tangle set on taking her from him, Telok must keep her alive without risking a loss his hearts cannot bear.
