King's Claim: When the Past Hunts, the King Protects (eBook)

Maya thought she could outrun the blood-stained nightmare that once owned her... until Cole "King" Maddox barrels into her life, a dangerous mix of charm and iron-clad protectiveness. His reputation as a ruthless enforcer precedes him, but beneath that hardened exterior lies a hunger that both terrifies and excites her. When her violent ex resurfaces, the King's instinct snaps to lethal precision, leaving Maya shaken by the darkness he's capable of unleashing.

Terrified and oddly exhilarated, Maya flees the safety of his steel-wrapped arms, fearing the very possession she craves. She hides in the shadows of a city that never sleeps, while the King stalks her trail, his desire turning into a relentless pursuit. Each close-call fuels a forbidden fire, and the line between protection and domination blurs with every breath.

As the past closes in, Maya is forced to confront the secret that fuels the King's brutality?a trauma that mirrors her own. Their raw, messy connection forces both to stare into the abyss of their fears, and into the undeniable truth that the only way to survive is to surrender to the darkness together.

In a world where love is a battlefield and possession is a promise, King's Claim delivers gritty, unapologetic heat, relentless tension, and an emotional climax that will leave readers breathless.
