Paranormal Shifter Romance (Fated Mates, Open Door, Explicit) · The Veilbound Clans

Worth Keeping

He put his entire hoard up for auction to pay a blood-debt. Then the appraiser walked in — and his dragon recognized his mate.

Wren Ashby is the most incorruptible appraiser in the region, and her flawless ledger is the one thing she has ever fully owned. She built it out of nothing, and no dragon's gold — no dragon's anything — is going to buy it. So when Ossric scents her across his own vault door and goes still with fury and wonder, Wren does the only thing she trusts: she keeps counting.

But the contract that put her in his vault is the same contract carrying his treasure out the door. The bond flares hot and mutual over every appraisal session, and neither of them can act on it without Wren surrendering her integrity — or Ossric selling the last piece of his heart. Because the rival clan-lord who holds his debt has scented the bond too, and he means to buy the hoard for a fraction of its worth and grind a mateless dragon into nothing.

On the eve of the auction, Wren discovers what Ossric has secretly held back: his dead brother's last gift, the one artifact that could clear the debt outright. Now she has to choose between the ethics that define her and the mate who would rather be ruined than sell the one treasure that was ever the point.

Unless there's a third way — and Wren is the only person alive who can find it.

A steamy, high-heat fated-mates dragon shifter romance with a possessive alpha, a heroine who is his match, and a guaranteed HEA. Perfect for fans of Ruby Dixon and Katee Robert.
