Ravenous: A Dark Romance (Blackthorne Ranch #1)

It’s always the small ones that bleed the most.

Ripley Winter’s demons have haunted her for years, begging her to embrace the darkness that’s always dwelled within her. After spending far too long beneath her abusive boyfriend’s thumb, she’s finally indulged in the unthinkable.


Now she’s hoping to start over with a new identity, but when a brutal storm pushes her all the way to Blackthorne Ranch she finds herself face to face with a man, one who can start her on the road to a new life.


That is, if he doesn’t kill her first.


Cruel, cold, and calculating, Preacher Blackthorne’s mission has always been to rid the world of evil. His clientele are willing to pay a hefty price for a taste of the sinners he ensnares, but even monsters get lonely.


When Ripley’s battered body lands on his doorstep, he soon becomes obsessed with the idea of molding her into the perfect hunter.


But will he be able to teach her everything she needs before the ghosts of the past return to haunt them both?
