When the statue awakens… I love working in a private university library with its special collection of antiquarian books and works of art. My favorite sculpture is one of the massive gargoyle statues, one that’s perched near my desk. Visitors often remark how lifelike it is, and I’ll tease, “Maybe it is.” One night, I stay alone after closing to shelve a fascinating book. It’s one I’ve never seen before, with intricate details. It must have been misplaced and belongs in with special collections. When I go into the private area, I hear movement in the library. Has someone broken in? What I discover is far more shocking... Mated to the Gargoyle is a fated mates, protector romance. This book is part of the Mated to the Monster multi-author monster romance series. All books can be read as standalones.
