I submit to no man. When the gods wash a handsome, broken king onto my shores, I realize the tides of my future are turning. Fares awakens and brashly demands not only my submission, but also my help in returning his stolen throne—all before breakfast. But I am not an omega of his kind. I come from an ancient, powerful bloodline of witches. Submission is not a trait I hold in high regard. My responsibility is to my people, so I make the arrogant, overbearing warrior a deal—aid me in the solstice gifting that bolsters the town’s protective wards, and I will leave with him. It is true that deep inside, I ache for adventure. Still, imagine my surprise when a passionate, stolen moment between us unleashes an age-old power of his people. It is a homing beacon, calling his brothers-in-arms to his side. As a pack, they have only one goal—make me submit, claim me, and take me as theirs. Can an independent, strong-willed witch tame three hulking males, or will they steal my heart and force my submission… Tempest is a solstice gifting themed Why Choose romance featuring a strong heroine and the three warriors who seek to claim her heart, among other things.
