In a world where both the sands and the heart are unyielding, Miss Calliope Wright must learn that courage is born of hardship-and that love is often found where you least expect it.
Lady Calliope Wright has always been the obedient daughter of an earl, living under her father's strict expectations. But as her arranged marriage to the uninspiring Sir Reginald draws near, Callie's longing for freedom becomes impossible to ignore. In an uncharacteristic act of bravery, she escapes to the Sahara, determined to find her brother Robert, the only one who's ever truly supported her. Her hope? That Robert might help her escape this fate, or even convince their father to call off the marriage.
Lord Samuel Wright, however, is quick to act when he learnt that his daughter's attempt at escape when awry. Discovering that Callie had secretly joined Mrs. Addilyn Holt's notorious matchmaking service before her disappearance, he enlists Rogane To'ran-a reclusive Beastkeeper known for his skill in tracking and his bond with hounds abandoned by London's wealthy. Though Rogane has little interest in rescuing spoiled heiresses, loyalty to Mrs. Holt sends him on a pursuit across treacherous sands.
In the depths of the desert, Callie finds herself captured by ruthless traders who plan to auction her. Rogane arrives just in time to free her, and together, they face the desert's brutal heart. For Callie, it's a journey of self-discovery and courage; for Rogane, a test of resolve as he fights a growing attraction to the woman he's bound to return home.
This fourth book in a fantasy romance series promises adventure, survival, and forbidden love. Each book can be read as a standalone, but they're best enjoyed in order!

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.

Knowing that she had to take matters into her own hands, and fast, an advertisement in the societal papers provides Millie with one last avenue of hope: Mrs. Addilyn's Anxious Hearts Society Matchmaking Service. Blayne Leowyn's human name was James Woode according to the documentation this world had provided him, though he was anything but. He lived a solitary existence in the forests skirting around the capital city. The beasts and creatures that dwelled in the area were under his care, tempered and appeased by his tenuous administrations to prevent discord between human and fae.

But his unwitting match, Miss Adams, became furious and aloof, and his need for companionship would surely lack considering the woman was mute. However, he could not deny there was something about her... This is a historical fantasy romance novel, heavy focus on the romance.Complete
