A Hunger Soft and Wild by Moira Darling

A dangerous mercenary. A runaway vampire. A hunger neither can resist.

Aria Valienne spent her life under the iron rule of a vampire clan who sees mercy as weakness. Now hunted, wounded, and desperate for freedom, she flees into the wild—only to be found by a hardened mercenary with sharp eyes and an even sharper blade. Roan should be just another danger in a world that seeks to devour her, yet something about the woman makes Aria hesitate…and hunger.
Roan Talrik knows better than to get involved. She’s spent years selling her sword, keeping her past buried and her heart untouched. Helping a runaway vampire is a mistake—one that should have ended the moment Aria could stand on her own. And yet, every night by the fire, every stolen glance, every quiet confession sinks its teeth into Roan’s resolve.

When the shadows catch up to them, will they survive the hunt—or will they be forced to sacrifice everything for a love they never meant to find?
