Release Date:  August 1, 2019 Publisher:  Amazon Digital Services Format:  ebook Pages:  290 pages Genre:   Romance/Fantasy Buy:  Kindle   Synopsis: Two men: One human. One not. She has one choice. She hopes it’s the right one. Two men. Both dominant, both dangerous, both unsuitable. Both want her.

After she left him she mov...
