Poet & Protector, Book One

A New Adult paranormal romance that delves deeper into the New York Times and international bestselling Nightshade series! When two Guardians in rival wolf packs, Mason Elliott, a Nightshade, and Neville (Nev) Durand, a Bane, are partnered for a class assignment, they both know it’s going to be a disaster. Their natural animosity has them constantly at each other’s throats, but spending time together forces them to confront how deeply they’re drawn to one another. Giving in to their mutual attraction could be deadly. Guardians are ruled by their masters, powerful witches known as Keepers, whose laws forbid any wolves from choosing their own mates. As Mason and Nev struggle to protect their secret, a new threat looms over them: Logan Bane, a Keeper obsessed with making Mason his own. Their master’s commands and the Witches’ War they’ve dedicated their lives to might tear them apart, leaving them with an impossible choice between their sacred duty and each other.Poet & Protector is a companion novel that follows the events immediately prior to and within Nightshade from the dual perspectives of Mason and Nev. While Poet & Protector can be read without being familiar with the original Nightshade series, completing Nightshade first provides the full context of Mason and Nev’s story and their world.
