Driven to find where she belongs, Harley Rayne stumbles into the world she was never supposed to know existed, the world her family kept secret and her boyfriend shoved her into head first.
Harley Rayne, an extraordinarily ordinary and forgotten young woman, wants two simple things: For her family to acknowledge her existence, and to be important to someone. Anyone.
When Frank Essex—a wild, sexy, and often volatile flavor of trouble—happens to come into her life and be everything she thinks she needs, Harley finally feels like more than a piece of furniture. Frank not only sees her, he needs her. No one has ever needed her before.
But Frank has a secret; the same secret her family has protected her entire life.
That secret comes out when he sheds his sheep's clothing to reveal the wolf within. The man she loves is a violent, sadistic monster, and he doesn’t take rejection easily. This time, Harley discovers running away won't be as easy as it was before. Especially when Frank isn't the only one hunting her down.

Sure, there are a few grammatical errors, but it is minor, especially for her first book.
For all these reasons, I give this book five stars.

If you took every major epic fantasy that has ever been written and twisted them all into one fantastic tale of magic, sword play, and just plain old fantasy fun, you might get the first half of this 235,000 word monster of a read. The last half is a
The first book in the series takes place on Klairn, a post apocalyptic, yet provincial world where an elite core of Protectors keep watch over those who would cause harm. Becoming a Protector of Klairn is about as hard as making the Olympics on Earth
