吸血鬼新娘與狼族首領之間水火不容的愛情
作為吸血鬼顯赫議員的獨生女,Misery Lark只能接下父親的命令,原在人類中隱姓埋名的日子被迫結束,她必須再次動身來到另一個與自己完全不同的群體之中,而這群還是自己族類最大的天敵-狼人。為與狼人締結和平共處的關係,Misery被要求嫁給狼族首領-Lowe Moreland。當然,其實Misery會答應這次婚約,也有她自己的小私心。她的好朋友曾前往狼族領地安排一場會議後,就消失無蹤,Misery想要藉機找出好友失蹤的真相。
狼人天生冷酷無情,難以捉摸,作為首領的Lowe自然也不例外。他以威權統治部落,但同時也捍衛該有的正義。婚禮之後,Misery身在狼族領地,四面楚歌,身旁的『丈夫』對自己似乎也缺乏信任。她該如何完成自己的任務?而會不會即使生理構造上完全不同,Misery和Lowe彼此才是最能彼此互補的終生伴侶呢?(文/博客來外文館)

New York Times bestselling author of
Love, Theoretically and
The Love Hypothesis. Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast--again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold a historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and she sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange--again...
Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It’s clear from the way he tracks Misery’s every movement that he doesn’t trust her. If only he knew how right he was....
Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she’s ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what’s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory...alone with the wolf.
