Tithed to the Fae

“We must mate. It is the only way I can protect you. We must mate now, before I am next challenged.”

In all her forty years, Tamsin has never needed anyone to defend her. Until, that is, she's tricked into following a stray dog through a magic portal into a realm straight out of fairytales. Armed only with her wits and a deeply unimpressed Pomeranian, she’s got no chance of escaping this strange, dangerous place… at least, not alone.

In Cuan’s world, shifters are scorned by the noble fae, treated as barely more than animals. With his phouka shapeshifter heritage, halfbreed warrior Cuan can transform into both stallion and wolf – but he keeps his true self hidden, ashamed of his bestial blood. One look at Tamsin though, and he’s stepping out of the shadows with swords drawn and fangs bared. This fearless, fascinating human woman is his fated mate, and his whole soul is hers from the moment their eyes meet.

There’s only one way Cuan can keep Tamsin safe from the dangers of this realm – claim her as his own, placing her under his protection. He fears she can never accept a bond with a beast, but Tamsin knows it would be all too easy to love this gentle, chivalrous shifter warrior… and that’s the problem.

Because if she gives her heart to a fae, she can never go home…
