She's the black sheep of her family, the one who picked pointe shoes over a corner office. So when her perfect older sister dares her to host Thanksgiving, Gillian says yes. Out loud. In front of witnesses. Oh no. Leo is the restaurant's head chef. Quiet. Intense. Built like a man who lifts cast iron for a living. He barely speaks to her… …until the night he catches her alone in his kitchen and feeds her a spoonful of something that changes everything. Now he wants...

The dog crashed into my life first. His owner came next. He has a dog. I have nothing. Well, except for a maxed-out credit card, a sunburn, and a bed at my grandmother's beach house. Then a seventy-pound puppy bowls me off my bike… …and his owner picks me up off the pavement. Jett Cunningham. Ferryboat captain. Next-door neighbor. Absolutely gorgeous. He needs a dog-sitter. I need a reason to get out of bed. It was supposed to be a summer arrangement. Sunset rides on his boat weren't in the contract. Neither was falling for the man at the wheel.

She was behind the camera. He was supposed to be just another subject. I take pictures of happy couples for a living. Brides. Grooms. Rocks on fingers. Sunsets. I've never been the woman in the picture. Then my friend booked me to shoot the Firefighter Bachelor Auction. Sexy. Shirtless. Hot. Not my usual gig. Especially not Dean Wilkins. Six-foot-something of muscle and mischief, who looked at me like I was the one he wanted to take home. Me. The girl in the oversized cardigan, hiding behind a lens. He shows up on my doorstep with cat food and that grin. He kisses me like he means it. He ...

I've died thirty-one times. Lived as a mage, a soldier, a vampire, a politician, and at least one life I'm not allowed to remember. Each time, I carved my memories into my soul, died, and rolled the dice on coming back. This time I woke up as an elf named Cyrus Ashford in a frozen village with three hundred starving people, an empire that wants us dead, and a fiancée who's been waiting for me since we were kids. No pressure. Now I'm building crossbows from scrap metal, running a goat-based economy, teaching guerrilla warfare to farmers, and trying not to get murdered by the three-thousand-...

She would bear my children. She would bend to my will. But most importantly, she would help me destroy the man she loved most, the man who took everything from me: her father.
