Part of Midnight Breed, book 13
First published 2015
Carys Chase follows her heart without asking permission. This rare Breed female possesses daywalker abilities that make her exceptionally powerful among her kind. She falls hard for Rune, a cage fighter who dominates every match he enters. Rune survives in a world where blood and violence determine everything. He has made enemies inside the fighting arena and beyond it. His past holds secrets as dark as the brutal matches he wins with fists and fangs. Rune has spent years keeping everyone at a distance, trusting no one completely. Carys becomes the first person to break through his defenses. Then figures from his buried past surface to threaten everything he has built. Rune faces an impossible choice. He can betray the trust Carys has placed in him, or he can drag her into a fight that will likely destroy them both. Neither option offers hope for survival.
