Andrew is a jock, tall and attractive with eyes you could float away in. Though, despite seeming to have the qualities that would make for a romantic love interest, he's never been in a relationship. Why? Because he's in the closet. Being gay isn't exactly suited to a guy like him.

And the most appealing part? She's leaving behind Draeden Rache, the cocky, privileged bully who tried to kiss her last year.

But that just makes the pleasure so much stronger. I've been a monster for so long. Now, I've found the woman who will be my mate for the rest of her life. If she surrenders, we will reign forever—our lives lost in bliss. And if she runs, her death will be quick.
