Can a ruthless warrior convince a broken woman to take a chance on love in his dying world?

Deadly warlord Northaen has fought for millennia to preserve what's left of his angelic dominion of Kalasder. On the hunt to locate one of the prophesized women who will help save his realm and take her back with him-or steal her if he had to-he comes face-to-face with a fiery female with the wounded eyes, one who threatens his iron-clad control and turns his world upside down.

Cruelly betrayed, all Kataya Jamison wants is to lick her wounds someplace quiet, not clash with a maddening immortal who believes she possesses the mystical blood magic his world desperately requires. With her life falling apart, it's the last complication she needs. But when rebels snatch her, and the intractable man comes to her rescue, the armor protecting her heart starts to slip.

Together on his bleak realm, and despite her wariness, neither can resist the desire blazing between them. A passion that is intense as it is forbidden. And North will stop at nothing to claim her as his. When his enemies target Kataya, a powerful darkness rises, and their burgeoning bond is viciously tested. But the sacrifice required to defeat it may very well break them both.

*A 120k+ slow-burn romance with a broken heroine and a bloodthirsty, possessive hero.
