No Half Measures

Three years of being the smartest person in the basement will do one of two things to you. It will break you, or it will make you meticulous, highly caffeinated, and completely right.

Peyton Ellis has the evidence board to prove it. Five deaths. Five human victims, all partnered with paranormals, their crime scenes staged, but no evidence left at all. He has the red string, the printed photographs and a judgmental spider for company. What he doesn't have is anyone willing to believe him.

Then the Paranormal Task Force walks in.

Their lead operative, Menace, is an apex predator who should be terrifying, and absolutely is, until he crouches down on the bullpen floor, picks up Peyton's scattered crime scene photos, and starts asking exactly the right questions. For a man who has spent years being laughed out of every room, being genuinely heard feels dangerous in the best possible way.

But working beside a growly, fiercely protective shifter while dismantling a murder mystery is complicated enough. Falling for the possessive alpha who refuses to leave Peyton's side is something else entirely.

An MM paranormal romance for readers who love grumpy sunshine dynamics, competent underdogs and protective shifters who choose violence, and yet love quietly.

Peyton has spent years being dismissed. He's about to discover what it feels like when someone powerful refuses to look away.
