I Am the Wild
Karpov Kinrade - 2019
I’ve been offered a job at the Night Firm. To work for four of the hottest men I have ever met. They don’t tell me what I’ll be doing. They don’t tell me where I’ll be working. Simply that I am their only candidate. If I take the job, I’ll gain financial freedom, a new home, and answers to questions better left unasked. But at what cost? Because my new job is more than anything I ever imagined. It will take me to the home of Count Dracula and the den of a kitsune. To the paradise of Lilith and a world trapped in time. It will bind me to the most dangerous men alive. It will break me and make me whole. My heart. My life. My soul. I may lose them all to the Night brothers. But in the end, it will be my choice. My name is Eve Oliver. Welcome to the Night Firm. ***This is a slow burn reverse harem paranormal romance (and office romance). Note: this book contains themes of suicide and domestic violence that may be triggering to some.***
