Book Description
The epic conclusion to the Shadow Beast Shifters. I finally have the life I always dreamed of. So why does it taste like ash on my tongue? Growing up in Torma, the strongest of the shifter packs, I wanted nothing more than to find my true mate and live my best life. Of course, that dream existed before my father betrayed the pack and turned me into their punching bag. I'd all but given up, until a quirk of true mate genetics gifted me a true mate like no other. My childhood dreams were finally a reality. Funny how quickly dreams turn into nightmares. I'm being lied to, missing weeks and months of time. Someone messed with me and no matter how often I'm told to forget it and move on as Torin's mate, there's no way I can. Whoever did this to me should have known I'd pick at it until it bled. It's my nature after all. As I search out random growls, flutters in my chest, and a suspicion that there's so much more going on than I could even imagine, I sense that I'm racing against an unknown clock. I need to get to the bottom of this mystery. And when I figure out who stole my memories, they're going to wish they never messed with Mera Callahan. Game on. -If you like sexy, dark paranormal romances, with humor, steam, action, a tough heroine and an antihero, this is for you.

The “tale as old as time,” in versions from across the centuries and around the world—published to coincide with Disney’s live-action 3D musical film starring Emma Watson, Ian McKellen, Ewan McGregor, Audra McDonald, Kevin Kline, Stanley Tucci, Dan Stevens, and Emma Thompson Nearly every culture tells the story of Beauty and the Beast in one fashion or another. From Cupid and Psyche to India’s Snake Bride to South Africa’s “Story of Five Heads,” the partnering of beasts and beauties, of humans and animals in all their variety—cats, dogs, frogs, goats, lizards, bears, tortoises, monkeys, cranes, warthogs—has beguiled us for thousands of years, mapping the cultural contradictions that riddle every romantic relationship.

I come from a long line of human servants working in the household of the great vampire, Lady Lilith. I've seen things that make it impossible for me to remain ignorant of passion, though I've never experienced it for myself. Until one day, my mistress sends me on a most extraordinary quest.
