Gesa Lionheart didn’t mean to build a pride. It just… happened.

But what started as a quiet life above a bookstore with a few dangerous, sexy lovers has turned into something far messier—and far more powerful—than her gryphon clan would ever approve of. Family politics are closing in, fae royalty are circling, and the people Gesa loves most are keeping secrets that could tear the entire pride apart.

When a desperate rescue drags Gesa back into the toxic heart of her old clan, she and her found family find themselves running from assassins, unraveling ancient grudges, and trying to hold the line against forces that have been hunting one of their own for centuries. Loyalties will be tested. Truths will come to light. And protecting the pride may cost more than Gesa is willing to pay.

Because someone has been playing a long, dangerous game—and they’re finally ready to make their move.
