Hunger — Caris Roane

He won't become a mastyr vampire just to please his woman…

Yolen keeps his love life and his work life separate with one goal in mind â€" to protect Brianna. After seeing his best friend slaughtered by the enemy, he will do whatever it takes to ensure Brianna's safety even if it means holding her at a distance. But the woman doesn't seem to understand and demands more of him. At the same time, his mastyr calling surges whenever he's around her, causing him to crave her more than ever. Because he believes in what he's doing, however, he digs in his heels and sticks to seeing her only on Friday nights. But does he risk losing the woman he loves by keeping her at arm's length?

She needs so much more from the man she loves…

Brianna longs for a deeper connection with Yolen, the man she loves, but he's sworn to limit their relationship to a date once-a-week. At the same time, her heart labors with an overproduction of what her vampire boyfriend needs the most, yet he's not around to relieve the strain on her heart. When another vampire courts her, one who has already embraced his mastyr calling, Brianna is drawn to him in a way she doesn't understand. She can't seem to help herself as she agrees to go out with him. Yet, how can she turn away from Yolen when she loves him body and soul? Will Yolen finally relent and give her what she needs?
