Born of the Forbidden — Missy Jane

Some desires are too strong to be denied. Master Steinn is loyal to his brothers, his King, and his people, but his desire for another man is leading him into unchartered territory. As a Master Gargoyle he protects the realm, but did he inadvertently bring on a threat from the Varish with his taboo encounter? Despite being made of stone, the strength of his feelings for Zephyr may be more than he can fight. Brónach's gift of foretelling is often a curse. The jumbled images she dreams aren't usually helpful, but this time the danger is clear. Relaying the message is the easy part, the challenge comes in ridding herself of the one gargoyle who stops her heart. Adalstan has no clue she's desired him for years. Now she finally has his attention at the worst possible time. Will he hate her once the full foretelling is revealed? Twelve brothers turn to stone to protect the human realm, but they can't protect their hearts once they find the mates who call to their souls. As they battle the unexpected feelings within, a battle wages in their city, a prophecy comes to light, and the fate of the entire continent is at stake.
