I didn’t come to the bonfire to burn the last piece of a marriage I barely managed to escape.
My friends and I are supposed to be working on the wicker bear we’ve spent weeks building for the town festival. Instead, after too much wine and too much truth, somebody brings up the question women have been arguing about for years: would you rather meet a man or a bear alone in the woods?
I say there ought to be a third choice.
The joke should end there.
Instead, later that night, I throw my wedding ring into the bonfire and whisper a wish I’ve never said aloud to another living soul. The wicker bear begins to move.
Willow twists. Branches rearrange. And when I press my palm to the chest of the Wicker Man standing where the bear used to be, something beats beneath my hand.
He’s alive.
Locke is powerful enough to frighten half the town and gentle enough to make me question everything I thought I knew about strength. Somehow, he also heard us before he ever had ears, including the things women say when we think no men are listening—and the wish I never wanted any man to know.
I wanted to feel safe again.
I never expected safety to look at me like I’m the only woman in the world. And I definitely never expected people in town to decide a man like him shouldn’t exist.
Her Wicker Guardian is a high-heat contemporary monster romance featuring a woman who has sworn off men, a powerful living wicker hero with a mind and heart of his own, a small town with very strong opinions, and one wildly unconventional happily ever after.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
