Merciless Heir (PREORDER)

A kidnapping. A fated knot. And an heir who will burn down his inheritance to keep her.

Nell Odhiambo knows how powerful men work — they take what they want and ask the women at the table to fetch them a coffee. Though she is the most competent person in every room she enters, she’s the last one to get credit for it. After witnessing a murder, not with guns but with claws and fangs, she’s shoved not into a corner, but into a cabin in the woods and blackmailed into corporate espionage by the most dangerous man she's ever met. Because Magnus Blackwood is a wolf in a tailored suit. 

Magnus Blackwood has had one job his entire life: become the Alpha his father built him to be. That means securing the pack, honoring the arranged marriage his parents negotiated, and never — under any circumstances — letting desire become a liability. Keeping Nell close after she witnesses a pack execution is a calculated decision. Wanting her is a cost he didn't calculate. And discovering she's his fated mate three weeks before his arranged wedding is the kind of variable that turns a calculated decision into the most consequential choice of his life.

The pack needs the alliance. His wolf needs her. And Nell — brilliant, furious, entirely unwilling to be managed — is busy dismantling his enemies, unchaining his heart, and trying to decide if wanting to stay is the same as being willing to be kept.

For fans of dark romance, mafia romance, enemies to lovers, forced proximity, and heroines who dismantle criminal empires before lunch — MERCILESS HEIR is a steamy, slow-burn paranormal romance with explicit heat, pack politics, fated mates, and a love story that started as blackmail and ended as the only thing either of them couldn't negotiate their way out of.
