When invaders brutally massacred the women and children of the
Varner, Caleb witnessed loss and destruction on a scale few can comprehend. As
the leader of a race on the brink of extinction, his only hope for survival is
gaining acceptance into the Shadow Shifter Kingdom. Struggling with new
customs, he meets Tabitha, a woman who challenges his limits.
Refused the right to join the king’s guard because of her gender,
Tabitha must be stronger than the men to prove she deserves to be the first
accepted female Warrior in the kingdom. She believes Caleb will help improve
her abilities, until she learns her goals conflict with the foundation of his
culture.
When the realm is attacked, Tabitha and Caleb must come together
not only to fight, but to find the strength to win against an evil with the
potential to destroy everything they revere most--including each other.

RUINED: Shadowed
Love Book One
By Kinley Baker
Genre: Fantasy
Romance
BLURB:
Jessa
is one healing away from death. Under the thrall of her gift, the Court's
Senior Healer risks giving her life in exchange for her patient's.
Vale
is a rebel ruler. When his brother is killed, he's given the throne and the
decree from the Court to produce an heir or lose his family's hold on the
land--and his deceiving advisors aren't afraid to use murder as a weapon if
their directive to stay away from the Senior Healer goes unheeded.
But
Vale burns to possess Jessa. The heat between them leaves a wake of smoke, and
even the powerful forces above want to bind them in a union that lasts forever.
Vale taking another would be a betrayal neither could survive.
Their
enemies fear a child born of such a powerful Healer and Warrior, but the true
threat lies in the bond forged in shadows and fused in fire.

EXCERPT RUINED:
"You."
Fury burned hot under Jessa's skin as she glared at Vale. "Who do you
think you are, demanding I come live in this castle? You can't just order your
guards to enter a woman's home and pack up her things."
"Well,
I did." Vale came around the desk and propped one hip against it, more of
a threatening than casual movement.
"Someone
tried to kill me. It makes sense that I have my Healer close by."
She
released a pent-up breath. "Why couldn't you have explained that instead
of mandating?" Silly. Her imagination had run away with her. The king
needed his Healer. But the realization he didn't want her made her angrier.
"Because
I didn't want to give you the option of saying no."
She
most definitely would have said no.
"If
you would have explained your reasoning, I would have complied. Your safety and
health come first, even if I-"
"Even
if you what?"
"Loathe
you." She bunched her fingers into two fists, seriously tempted to hit
him. For all the nonexistent pain it would inflict upon him.
"Do
you?" His tone deadened with calm. "Because I can't stop thinking
about you."
"That's
normal." She brushed off the claim. "I saved your life."
He
moved in a blur. A true Shadow Shifter. One second he stood near his desk, the
next he had her in his arms, one locked around her waist and one hand tangled
in her hair. Their lips almost brushed.
"I
can't stop thinking about you." His murmur played down her spine, leaving
a tingling trail. His scent invaded her. His voice embraced her like bare skin
against satin sheets.
Her
heart beat fast, her pulse jumped.
She
disliked him, but didn't want him to let her go.
"Have
you been thinking about me?" His soft tone feathered over her flesh.
"Only
how much I dislike you." Lust pulsed in her belly.
He
pulled her head back gently by her hair, so they looked straight into each
other's eyes. Their bodies pressed tightly together. "Liar."
