Half-breed’s Bargain by Samantha Wolfe

WELCOME TO UNITY CITY…

My name is Harlow Walsh. Yes, that Harlow Walsh. You know, the infamous killer enthralled by an evil mage with black magic and used to do all kinds of despicable things before I took him out and freed myself. My past is as violent and inscrutable as the city I now live in, and I keep to myself and avoid any trouble with the preternatural factions who occupy Unity right under all the mortals’ noses. I thought I’d found some measure of peace and normalcy living here for the last five years. But all that ends the night a friend asks me for a favor involving the fae, and I meet Van Cabrera, the gorgeous and sexy man my traitorous body inexplicably thinks is mine.
My name is Van Cabrera, successful entrepreneur, CEO of my own company, and half-breed bastard of a werewolf and a fae. Despite my success, my life isn’t my own thanks to the magically invoked bargain I made with my fae mother when I was young and naïve. When she calls, I have no choice but to do whatever she asks, no matter how reprehensible it might be. It’s how I find myself dragged along as her bodyguard to meet with the head of the Unity Coven mage council. I thought it would be one of the easier things she’s asked of me. But that changes the instant I catch the intoxicating scent of Harlow Walsh, and my dormant werewolf half is awoken by the last thing I ever expected to find, a mate.
