#MWTease and #Coverreveal
When Ryder
Venn sets out to do a favor for his alpha brother, Joshua, he thinks it’s just
an ordinary day. Little does he know the horror and adventure that awaits him.
Captured and tortured by shifter hunters, Ryder wakes to the gentle care of
Evie Thomas.
As Ryder
Venn falls in love with the mysterious girl who nurses his wounds and feeds
him, Evie discloses her reason for being part of the hunter’s group. She’s
infiltrated the club, determined to avenge her brother’s death at one of their
leader’s hands. As Evie reveals her identity and plans to Ryder, they fall into
a heated and passionate love affair. Meanwhile, the shifter hunters plot to
force Ryder into cage fighting. The trouble is just who or what will they make
him fight?
Deep in
love, Ryder marks Evie as his mate.
Gorgeous
Ryder will do anything for her.
Lovely Evie
will do anything to free him.

Ryder
scented the air. Somewhere the freshness of night, mingled with straw and fresh
cut grass filtered into the stable block. He turned and went to lie on the bed
with the quilt bulked in his arms so that he felt as if Evie was still there
and sleeping.
A guard woke
him running a baton along the bars in the front of the stall.
Ryder sat up
disoriented for a moment before he realized it was the morning of fight night
and the guard, not Evie, had brought food.
He aimed a
shotgun at Ryder. “Stay on that side of the cell and we won’t have a problem.
Here’s the only food you’ll get today so make it last. The shower room door is
unlocked. All you gotta do is pull it open. I’ll be back for you at sundown.”
He placed a tray on the floor and opened the door. Then he pushed the tray
through the opening with his foot. He closed the door and walked off.
Ryder got
out of bed. He went to the door that led to the steps and the shower room. The
handle, which was merely a circle of metal on the door gave no clue as to if
the door was locked or unlocked. He held the handle and pulled. The door
opened. Ryder took the steps to the shower room wondering if he’d still be
naked if Evie hadn’t brought him some clothes.
He used the
facilities, but only when he was ready to ascend the steps back to his cell,
did he look at his reflection in the mirror. The cuts and abrasions were
healing a little, not as fast as Ryder would like, but that was probably down
to shifting. His wolf bulk was so much more than his human form and the change
would have unsettled the healing wounds.
In the cell,
he put on the chinos and shirt, wishing he had clean clothes. I wonder if these actually belonged to some
dead guy? He went to the tray and picked it up. There was a dishtowel
draped over it and the plate was covered with a metal cover to keep the food
warm. Ryder assumed the guard had taken what the cook gave him, because there
was steak and eggs on the plate. On a side-plate were a couple of pieces of
buttered toast and an apple. A bottle of spring water rolled to the front of
the tray. Ryder ate the toast having stuffed the two fried eggs between them.
He saved the steak and apple for later. The day stretched ahead of him with
little to do but fret about the evening event called fight night.
