Previously published (2014) Forever More Publishing. Brolach is old. Ancient. A hybrid, half vampire and half werewolf, he's a true immortal who can never die. He's lived for three thousand years, but has slept buried for two of them. It isn't until a female comes to the hill where he sleeps that he comes awake, ready to protect her, his vampire side knowing she's his mate.
Physically threatened by her ex-boyfriend while out on a hike in the grasslands has unexpected results for Waverly. A man, muddy and covered in dirt, explodes out of the ground to rescue her. After the initial shock of learning that he is both vampire and wolf, she finds herself more than willing to bring him into her life, especially when he turns his attention on her.
With the help of Waverly, Brolach begins to adjust to the world he's awakened to. But the new life he sets about making with his mate is soon threatened by a danger from the past—the same one that had killed his family and buried him alive two centuries before.
