Can a stubborn human free a cursed alien shifter? Once upon a time Malrik was cold, wealthy, and arrogant. Convinced he was too important to ever fall victim to the curse of the unmated Vultor, he dismissed every female brought before him. Now he roams the mountains, locked in his beast form. Until one day he catches an unfamiliar scent - one that awakens a part of him he’d thought lost forever. A scent belonging to a pretty little human he will do anything to claim. Bella is perfectly content living on the outskirts of the village with her eccentric father. When he fails to return from a trip, she goes in search of him only to find herself in the hands of a massive, scarred beast. She should be terrified, but despite his fearsome appearance and growled commands, she is more intrigued than scared. Can she reach the male hidden inside the beast? Or is Malrik lost forever? Each book in the Alien Wolf Tales series may be read as a standalone romance. These sweet and steamy tales are intended for mature readers.
