Guarded By The Gargoyle
(2027)(The second book in the Shadow Wolf Creek Monsters series)
A novel by Tessa Stone
Every human in this town reads gold to him. She reads red.Lena moved to Shadow Wolf Creek for the business, not the company. Her craft store is thriving. Her nights are quiet. The town that lets shifters and humans share a sidewalk still hasn't made room for a woman who came here alone.
Then a gargoyle bows over his wing in a diner parking lot to call her madam. The man who opened her car door goes home without a truck.
Sable has been the steady presence for centuries. As the older brother, he calms his hotheaded sibling when emotions run high. He is also the one who carried twelve survivors of a hammer-and-chisel massacre across the ocean, never once allowing himself to desire anything for himself.
Now he wants her. He's stopped pretending otherwise.
She reads red at the center where every other human in this valley burns gold, which means only one thing. The calmest gargoyle alive has a single century of patience left in him, though he has no intention of spending it.
Lena wants someone to notice she's lonely. What noticed her turns to stone at sunrise, guards what it loves like buried treasure, and will never let her go.
Guarded By The Gargoyle is a steamy, obsessive, fated-mates Black monster romance with a possessive touch-starved hero, a heroine who isn't afraid of him, and a guaranteed HEA. Standalone in the Shadow Wolf Creek Monsters series.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
