Summary

DARK ROMANCE 18+ RATED Salem Graves was more than life, she was the violent inception of my soul's reawakening, a grotesque resurrection from the quiet rot where I lay entombed. She ripped me out of the abyss, my broken self dragged screaming through the splintered glass of nothingness. Our bond was a crucible of torment, two fractured souls, melted beneath unholy heat, molten, screaming, inseparable. What she ignited in me was not love, it was desecration. She is the very light that blinds me, the darkness that devours my edges and remakes me not as I was, but as I should have been. Her. For her. Of her. The singular truth in a world of lies. We are not the survivors of a fallen world, we are its children, raised on the gore and terror monsters fed us, forged into something they could never kill, their masterpiece, their mistake. Contains mature themes and content not suitable for younger readers. Reader discretion is advised.

Bargara4670: This was a refreshingly different love story. Both Hadleigh and Grant were strong and likeable characters. It was satisfying to see their relationship develop. I wonder if this story will be the first in a series. I would be interested to find out if Marina is bonded.

Called by the Alpha

Rook: I love the storyline, how it slowly builds, especially the dream premonitions in the earlier chapters. Everything starts coming together as it progresses. Not a fan of Seraphine though - something about her feels off. On to part 2!!If you like slow burn werewolf reads, this one's for you.

jeannie2244: Such a different story from your usual love story. I love stories that aren't just a cookie cutter romance with the same story line and predictable. This is unlike any I have ever read and so nice to read something new and refreshing.
