A Malicious Menagerie (Fangs & Fables Book One)

Welcome to the menagerie, and please, mind the fangs…

Twenty-two-year-old Anna Carmichael is down on her luck. Even juggling three dead-end jobs, she’s struggling to keep herself and her ailing grandmother afloat. When she’s offered a position as caretaker for an eccentric rich man’s collection of exotic animals, she jumps at the opportunity despite the ominous nondisclosure agreement. The reason for all the secrecy is revealed when Anna discovers that the residents of Mars Mathis’s Mystical Menagerie aren’t exotic—they’re mythological.

Her boss's chilling warnings leave no doubt—these creatures are his property, and he'll protect them at any cost. Anna's moral compass shatters as she befriends the very beings she's meant to cage. And an unexpected but irresistible passion ignites with Chase, the enigmatic wolf, as powerful and protective as he is trapped. Caught between her unwavering loyalty to her grandmother, the menagerie’s deadly threats, and a love bound by iron bars, Anna must decide—what is she willing to sacrifice?

A paranormal romance perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Patricia Briggs!
