Augustine Ravenscroft- Immortality is stale. For decades, I have been a paragon of self-control, never once allowing my sands to feast on the humans that surround me, tempt me. Until her. Every rule-abiding grain of sand in my body wants to swallow her whole, in her dreams and the mortal world. Her golden aura and honey scent drive me to the brink until I am breaking every order that has kept our monstrous community safe for centuries just to feel her joy and taste her arousal. Joanna Cole- My life is stagnating. I'm stuck in a rut of trying to please everyone, but this only leads to more work and sleepless nights. The library is the only place I find solace. And see him. It's ridiculous to have a crush on the librarian I have never spoken to, but he is the man of my dreams. Until one night, the dark and lustful dreams turn into reality. He wants to claim me, and I want him to own me. When chance encounters don't add up and old fae magic threatens my life, my only option is to trust Augustine and the new world of secrets and deception he has shown me.
