The Silent Mate by Emily A. Renfroe

A broken hero werewolf romance.

Since a tragic attack at the age of five rendered him disfigured and unable to speak, Malik contented himself to a life in the shadows. Ashamed of what he’d become, he forsook his birthright to lead and instead honed himself into a ruthless warrior, blackening his heart to mirror his monstrous appearance. Now serving as his younger brother’s prized weapon and enforcer, Malik strikes fear into the hearts of all who cross the Intonat Nocte Pack.
And yet, when fate ties his life to a young woman with a heart as beautiful as her appearance, Malik must step out of the shadows to claim her as his own.
After a lifetime of loss, he will not allow anyone to steal her from him.

The Silent Mate is a steamy, broken hero werewolf romance with fated mates and a guaranteed HEA. For readers who enjoy misunderstood, scarred MMC’s and the kind-hearted FMC’s who love every part of them, scars and all. At just under 60k words, this is a short yet deeply-emotional read that promises to bring the spice with the sweet.
