At a Glance

Book 5 in the Cruel Shifterverse and second installment of Aran's story. Dark reverse harem where Aran is shackled to her enemies and forced to compete in the brutal Legionnaire Games. She's disguised as male, sarcastic as hell, and absolutely unbreakable. The three kings (Corvus Malum, Scorpius, Orion) each bring different tortured dynamics. Slow burn RH that starts heating up significantly in this installment. Ends on a cliffhanger—do NOT start without the next book ready.
