Novel
Resist
Nothing breaks a bond faster than stubborn wills.
Summary
"Tell me to walk away, and I will," I murmured, my lips just a breath away from hers. She huffed, struggling against my hold, but I only tightened my grip around her wrists, pinning them above her head. "I'm done fighting this." __________ Thane Winslow learnt the hard way that trust is a dangerous thing. It was a weakness he couldn't afford—not after the betrayal he suffered. After that, all he did was rely on his strength and the core members of his pack. Outsiders were not worth his time. They were the enemy.
At least, that was until he laid eyes on Jhade Vahlenn.
Jhade knew better than to rely on anyone but herself. Hardened by a ruthless father who saw emotion as a flaw, she’s spent her life proving she the best. Her training made her believe she didn't need anyone. Especially not a mate. Especially not Thane.
Two warriors. Two shattered souls. One bond they refuse to accept.
They fight it. They deny it. They push each other to the breaking point. But the more they resist, the harder fate pulls them together.
Will they break together, or will their pasts tear them apart before they even have a chance to fall? __________ RESIST is Book Three of the Animal Instincts series and contains scenes and characters originally mentioned in the second book, Frost. I've written it so it can be read as a stand-alone novel, but feel free to read Book One and Book Two of the series to get a good grip on the characters and settings.
It is also a slow burn where you'll enjoy academia settings, steamy sparring scenes, possessive mates, trust issues, unexpected betrayals, and so much more. If you loved the other books in this series, you'll love this one ;)
