Custom Wood Burning

Lyra Vale never asked for the crescent-shaped mark burning behind her ear—or the strange abilities pulsing beneath her skin. For months, she’s hidden it, hoping it will fade. But when the mark begins to sharpen her senses in ways no human should experience, Lyra knows she’s out of time. Her only hope lies in a dangerous border town called Ashridge Hollow. She’s just here to cover the mark. But when she walks through the door, she finds a tattoo artist with molten golden eyes and the commanding presence of something more than man. Ronan is Alpha of the HollowBane Pack, and the moment he sees her, he knows the truth: Lyra is his fated mate. There’s only one problem. She doesn’t even know she’s part wolf. As supernatural tensions rise with rogue vampires breaking ancient laws, and Lyra’s awakening beginning, Ronan is forced to make an impossible choice: protect the pack that relies on him—or claim the woman the moon has chosen for him. This book is a four part series telling the tale of not just Ronan and Lyra, but of the people they trust. Each book blends into each other as they find a way to survive the war to come and keep the people they love safe at all cost.
