Ruthless Creatures: A Queens and Monsters Novel

Some wounds never heal — they just wait for the right person to rip them open again.

Five years after her fiancé vanished without a word, leaving nothing but a discarded wedding dress and a hollow space where her future used to be, Natalie has mastered the art of survival. She doesn't trust easily, she doesn't love recklessly, and she absolutely does not fall for dangerous men. Then Kage walks into her life and shatters every rule she's ever made.

Tall, ruthless, and carrying secrets dark enough to swallow her whole, Kage is not the kind of man who belongs in a normal woman's world. He's magnetic in the way a storm is magnetic — beautiful, inevitable, and capable of total destruction. The tension between them is electric and suffocating, a push-and-pull of hunger and suspicion that neither of them can outrun. She knows she should run. He knows she won't.

J.T. Geissinger's dark paranormal romance delivers everything fans of the genre crave — scorching chemistry, morally complex characters, and a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers dynamic wrapped in atmospheric horror that crawls under your skin and stays there. Natalie and Kage's connection is as dangerous as it is undeniable, and the secrets binding them together are far more terrifying than either of them imagined.

The truth about what happened five years ago is coming — and it will change everything.
