He promised her love, but he gave her terror.
An outsider in her own family, Harley Rayne knows what it's like to be lonely. So when Frank Essex rides into town and has eyes only for her, she decides that walking red flag is the one for her.
The night he reveals his true nature is the night she learns monsters are real. Not just the kind that manipulate, abuse, and control, but the kind with fur and claws—and she can't decide which is worse.
Frank has plans to make her like him, to drag her into the world she was never supposed to know. Maybe he really loves her, in his own twisted way, but love shouldn't make you feel trapped. Harley's escape is only the beginning. Building a life on your own terms is hard enough; doing so while being stalked by your obsessive ex is damn near impossible. Now she has to decide: Reclaim her life—or let the monster claim her.
