About THE DARKEST TORMENT:
Can Beauty tame her Beast?
Driven to his death by the demon of Distrust, Baden spent centuries in purgatory. Now he's back, but at what cost? Bound to the king of the underworld, an even darker force, he's unable to withstand the touch of another…and he's quickly devolving into a heartless assassin with an uncontrollable temper. Things only get worse when a mission goes awry and he finds himself saddled with a bride—just not his own.
Famed dog trainer Katarina Joelle is forced to marry a monster to protect her loved ones. When she's taken hostage by the ruthless, beautiful Baden immediately after the ceremony, she's plunged into a war between two evils—with a protector more dangerous than the monsters he hunts. They are meant to be enemies, but neither can resist the passion burning between them…and all too soon the biggest threat is to her heart.
But as Baden slips deeper into the abyss, she'll have to teach him to love…or lose him forever.
Includes Q&A featuring J. R. Ward, Jeaniene Frost, Nalini Singh and more!

Excerpt
“There, there, poppet.”
William gently wiped Gillian’s brow with a damp rag. “You’ll heal. That’s an
order.”
She opened boulder-heavy
eyelids. He sat beside her, his image blurry, as if a gossamer mist surrounded
him. Her mind supplied the details she needed: he was the most beautiful man
ever born, with hair blacker than any night and eyes bluer than any ocean.
“What’s wrong with me?”
Her voice was weak and raspy, the words nearly impossible to understand.
Thankfully, he wasn’t
human, his hearing better than most. “Something supernatural. But I’ve got the
best immortal doctors in the world running tests.”
Yes. She remembered
poking and prodding, William snapping, “Be gentler or lose your hand.”
“I want to go home,” she
said. She wasn’t just weak and pained; she was weirded out. Her every cell felt
as if it had sprouted legs and now crawled through her veins. A familiar
setting would help.
She didn’t have the
strength to get up and walk to the bathroom. She had to have help—William’s
help—or she had to use a bedpan.
A freaking bedpan. Oh,
the humiliation!
She wanted the girls.
Cool fingers sifted
through her hair. “Baden returned to the fortress, and his temper is…unstable.
I know better than most what he’s capable of doing. I experienced the same—” He
quieted, then smiled a smile devoid of humor. “You’re safer here. This realm is
hidden. No one comes or goes without my knowledge. Sleep now, poppet.”
No, no. Not ready to drift away just yet. She wanted more time with him before they were separated
forever…
“You’re not sleeping,”
William said.
Sweet William. From the
first moment she’d met him, she’d been drawn to him in a way that both scared
and excited her. He was just so wonderfully mesmerizing. And powerful. And
wicked and smart and sexy and kind—to her. Always to her. His friends, too, but
only sometimes.
His enemies, well, they
died badly.
Men feared him, and
women craved him like a drug. When he smiled, panties dropped. Or melted off.
She wasn’t sure which, only knew he worked the situation to his advantage. The
guy slept around, though he never stuck around. Because he always came back to
Gillian.
As much as she hated the
thought of him getting naked with another woman, she never ever never ever
wanted to have sex again. She despised everything about the act. The smells,
the sounds, the sensations. The pain…the humiliation…the helplessness…
The thought of joining her
body with another person’s made her break out in hives, not shiver with desire.
