Bound by Wing and Wildwood (The Therians Mates Series Book 1)

Fated mates. Deadly magic. One impossible quest.
For years, the Nymphs have withered beneath a creeping blight—a curse that poisons their village’s lands and forest, wherever they move, as well as the hearts of her people.
Ilana, the Mother druid’s daughter and a tree nymph, carries one hope: find the magical Mother Tree and awaken its wish to heal the land. But she’s not the only one searching for it.
Cereus, or Rayek-his real name, a dangerous unusual wolf shifter bound to the Therians clan—the very ones who unleashed the blight—will do anything to claim the tree’s power for himself. Fierce, magnetic, and maddeningly cocky, he’s her unknown enemy…and the only one who can keep her alive in the cursed forest surrounding the Mother Tree.
Forced into a reluctant alliance, Ilana and Cereus must survive the forest’s trials—and each other—as ancient magic stirs between them. But as passion ignites and secrets unravel, the line between hate and desire blurs. The wish of the Mother Tree could save her people… or doom them both to an eternity neither can escape.
Fans of fated mates, enemies-to-lovers tension, and dangerous quests through enchanted forests will fall for this paranormal fantasy romance full of sizzling chemistry, forbidden magic, and a battle between love and power. Featuring a brooding alpha shifter, a fierce and clever Nymph heroine, and a perilous journey toward a Happily Ever After that defies destiny.
