Why Read This?

Synopsis

The wolf inside me isn’t dying. He’s taking over. And the only thing keeping the beast from consuming me… is her. I’m Fenrir Thorsson—Asgardian wolf, born of gods, but barely a shift away from losing myself completely. The madness grows stronger every day. Then I meet Astrid—GUIDE’s deadliest hunter. Sharp. Beautiful. Built to kill creatures like me. She’s my enemy. My forbidden bond. The woman who quiets the monster the moment she’s near. She doesn’t know she carries the missing shard of my soul. She doesn’t know the wolf claimed her first—and fast. She doesn’t know choosing me means a life-or-death war across realms. But she will. Because without her… I become something even the gods will fear. Beast of Avalon is a steamy, trope-loaded fantasy romance featuring: * Enemies to lovers * Strong, deadly heroine * Protective alpha who falls HARD * Forbidden fated mates * Realm-shattering stakes * Found family forged in fire Perfect for readers who want their fantasy dangerous, their romance addictive, and their wolf-gods utterly devoted.
