Book Description
First she escaped the witch, now in order to save her family, she'll have to charm a beast. Liana Archer knows the kind of evil that lurks in the dark. Kidnapped by a witch and forced to leave behind her brother to escape, she vows to live her life with purpose even as the past haunts her nightmares. Years later, her adoptive family and her ability to forge magical weapons have put her on a fresh path, until her father is thrown in prison for a crime he didn't commit. Now she'll do anything to gain his freedom, even if it means bargaining with a beast. A scarred and broken man, Bowen Mackenzie only wants one thing: revenge. It's finally within his reach when a merchant delivers the mystical blade he's been searching for. But a new plan forms when he learns the merchant's daughter forged the magical weapon. Living together in a remote manor by the sea, Bowen gets more than he bargained for as the tempting beauty upends his cold existence. When buried secrets threaten to destroy their fragile bond, and an old enemy from Liana's past returns, he must choose between his revenge and the woman who could be his salvation.
