Haven is a hero. He was born to hunt and kill supernatural creatures, which is exactly what he's done for hundreds of years.
Until he couldn't anymore.
The conclave is giving him one last chance to prove to them that they can trust him. They send him to kill a leshy who kidnaps children and kills their parents.
Or at least, that's what Haven is told.
Dimitri saves abused children. He kills their parents and finds them new families, and he's not planning on stopping, not even when the conclave sends yet another hero after him.
But this hero is different.
Haven listens to Dimitri, which is a first for the conclave. Unfortunately for both of them, the conclave won't listen to reason, and once they're on the run, they can only rely on each other, especially after Dimitri is wounded. Haven steps up as his protector, but they both know it can't last. A hero and a supernatural creature are too different to fall in love, and now that he's realized how wrong he was, Haven needs to find his way to redemption.
Can Dimitri really trust Haven with his life? And just as important—can he trust him with his heart?
