Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

She doesn't know what her bodyguard is turning into.He doesn't realize the woman he protects is fighting a hunger for his blood.What if the greatest danger they face in the wild is each other?Vampires meet Scottish folkore. Dive into a fantasy romance duology steeped in Celtic myth-a dark, lush tale of a perilous journey, a bodyguard with secrets, and a young woman haunted by her thirst for blood.Ailsa has never fitted in.Rejected by her peers, and raised by a tattooist who inks forbidden magic, she's spent her life as an outsider. Now, a terrifying hunger is awakening inside her. One that craves violence ... and blood.When Ailsa's mentor is abducted, she'll stop at nothing to rescue her. Unfortunately, she can't survive the wilds alone. She needs a protector.Darach has spent years trusting no one.A wandering mercenary hunted by assassins, he bears a corrupted tattoo that was meant to make him invincible. Instead, it's turning him into something feral at night-something no one should trust, least of all a lass looking to hire a bodyguard.Only Ailsa's mentor has the knowledge to save him.But protecting the willful young woman while trying to hide what he's becoming is a complication he doesn't need.And taking orders from an arrogant, secretive blade-for-hire, as she battles against her own bloodthirsty impulses, is the last thing Ailsa wants.As they travel deeper into the haunted wilderness, it becomes clear that danger doesn't just stalk in the shadows or lie ahead on the path-it's right there with them.Book One of the Song of Savage Hearts duology is perfect for Romantasy readers who crave ancient Scottish folklore and druidic magic, wounded heroes, forced proximity, slow-burn spice, bodyguard romance, and love that's just a little bit feral.Please note: This is Book One in a duology and will end on a cliffhanger.
