When vulnerable humans find themselves thrust into that realm, they'll never be the same. . . The 17th installment in the long running fan-favorite Dark Protectors series from New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Zanetti In the aftermath of war, a fragile peace hovers between the Kurjan nation and the Dark Protector coalition.

She is particularly amused--and breathtakingly challenged--by her battles with Vero. But their clashing also belies a sizzling connection, a dark attraction between supernatural and fully human that threatens their chosen destinies and makes them a target for far too many bloodthirsty enemies . . .
