Monster - H.M. Jones

In the depths of the night, she stalked the shadows for centuries. Now, her own kind seeks to extinguish her existence.

With a legacy stained in blood and a soul burdened by the weight of relentless justice, Mara Whitlock's two hundred years have been a symphony of vengeance orchestrated against those who dared cross the line into darkness. Abusers, traffickers, and monsters cloaked in human skin trembled at the mere whisper of her name.

Yet, as silver binds her in a prison nestled within the ancient Appalachian Mountains, a storm gathers on the horizon. The werewolf tribunal thirsts for revelations, craving answers that could shake the very foundations of their world. Betrayal hangs heavy in the air as her own kin thirst for retribution.

But within this cauldron of chaos, an unexpected spark ignites between Mara and Elias Kessler, the enforcer whose duty knows no bounds. He embodies everything she despises-rigid, unyielding, a force to be reckoned with. Despite their opposing paths, a forbidden yearning threads its way through their souls. As Elias delves into her past, he unravels secrets that threaten to unleash an ancient evil that could spell doom for their entire pack.

For Mara was not merely forged into a killer. She is a weapon wrapped in shadows.

Long-buried truths claw their way to the surface, unveiling a tapestry of corruption festering at the heart of their pack. Bound by blood magic and ensnared by prophecies etched in Whitlock lineage, Mara finds herself at a crossroads where justice and vengeance converge in a dance as old as time itself.

Some prisons are crafted from steel and sinew. Others are built from battles fought and scars endured.

The true test lies in whether one possesses the strength to break free from both.

Enter a realm where heroines walk the razor's edge of morality, where love simmers beneath a shroud of darkness, and where the haunting allure of Appalachia weaves its enchantment into your very soul.
