And to Cherish

WARRIOR GODDESS

Cherish is known for a cold, brutal, pitiless demeanor.  She learned those traits while she’d lived – a penniless orphan in a cruel world.  Born illegitimate.  Her presence barely tolerated in life.  Vampirism set her free.  Gave her value.  Nobody knows the soft heart she keeps hidden behind her carefully crafted personae. Protected.  Safe.  No one will ever find out.  But then fate sends the ultimate problem… 

RAPTOR SPECIALIST

Doctor Samson Reid is a late bloomer.  He couldn’t get a date.  He ceased trying.  He focused on birds.  They didn’t care what he looked like.  A self-described ‘bird-nerd’, he excels at handling the most savage of birds.  The raptors.  And then life hands him handsomeness.  Women come out in droves to see him and his birds.  He feels like a stranger in his own life.  The entire world is weird.  And it’s about to get a lot weirder…   

PREDATORS

Cherish can’t believe this.  She’s mating?  How is this possible?  And why now? Shouldn’t she want one first? Suffer loneliness? Ache for companionship? And shouldn’t a mate be difficult to find? Surely, he wouldn’t appear one night in her hometown? Without one bit of searching?

She can’t be mating.  She refuses to accept it. 

And him.
