The Understanding

I discovered the man I loved was a monster.
So, I ran—and he’s been hunting me ever since.

Carys

Five years ago, I learned Braden Hughes wasn’t just Cardiff’s powerful syndicate kingpin.

He was a sabretooth shifter.

I disappeared before he could stop me. Now someone else has found me first, and the only man dangerous enough to keep me alive is the one I’ve spent years escaping.

Braden wants me back.

But returning means facing the secrets he kept—and the truth about what I am to him.

Braden

Four years, eleven months, two weeks, and six days.

That’s how long I’ve searched for Carys.

She thinks what she saw drove her away.

She still doesn’t understand.

She’s my fated mate.

Now my enemies have found her, and I’ll do whatever it takes to protect her.

She can fight me. Run from me. Refuse to forgive me.

But she’s coming home.

And this time, I won’t let her go.

The Understanding is a steamy paranormal mafia romance featuring second chances, fated mates, a sabretooth shifter, a heroine on the run, danger, suspense, and BDSM/power exchange.
