The bigger truth is that I want to lose myself in him, but I’m afraid to lose myself in the process.

At Mercy Hills, he finds the help he'd hoped for, but also a man who both attracts and unnerves him. He doesn't want another alpha mate, or even any mate, though he knows an omega has to have one. But Abel is unlike any other alpha he's ever met, and the hope that had been crushed out of him begins to grow again in the warmth of Abel's kindness and strength.

I've never been in love. Never wanted to be, either. Love was always for other people. This vampire doesn't seem to get that, though. No surprise, he's only thinking with his little brain, after all. Again and again, he keeps trying to get into my pants. Again and again, I shoot him down. It's almost like a dance, like a game we play. Until he risks his life to save me and things become too damn real. Until I find myself craving his bite, the feeling of his teeth on my skin. I don't know what to do about these foreign feelings, but I can't ignore them. I don't want to ignore them.

After his husband's death, Shane is convinced he's had his one chance at love and that part of his life is over.

And now he has to face his biggest critic - the man he still loves.

Damian thinks it's just one night. Salem thinks Damian's just another customer. They're both wrong. Damien grew up so poor even dirt was richer. So when the government approached him with a devil's deal, he leaped at a chance to provide for his parents and the rest of his family. All he had to give up was everything - his history, his pack, even his name. In return, his family would get his military pension, paid out as if he'd served his 20. It had seemed like a good deal at the time. Now, nameless, packless, and essentially friendless, he's not so sure.
