Description

The scent of coffee was strong, but the scent of her fear was stronger.

Hiding in a sleepy coastal town, Honey thought she had left her old life behind. Once, she was a top model wrapped in luxury, tangled in a passionate but dangerous affair. Now, she keeps her head down, serving lattes to tourists and pretending the past can't find her.

Until Morgan walks into her café.

Morgan doesn't just see the beautiful barista—he senses her fear, sharp as a blade. And when he catches the lurking shadow of her past, his alpha instincts roar to life. Honey is in danger, and every primal instinct tells him to protect her.

But Honey's ex isn't just a man with a grudge. He's connected to something far deadlier than jealousy. And if Morgan steps in, he risks exposing not only himself but the shifter world he's sworn to protect.

With ruthless enemies closing in and a secret war brewing between vampires and wolf shifters, Honey and Morgan are thrust into a deadly game of survival. She may have been running for her life—but now, she's fighting for something even more dangerous: a love written in fate and forged in fire.

Heart-pounding action. Spine-tingling suspense. A scorching romance that defies the odds. If you crave protective alpha shifters, dangerous pasts, and fated-mate intensity, you won't be able to put Protective down.
