Malachi (The Temple Brothers #5)

The Beast and his Little Bird.

A loner, more at home in the woods than with people, Malachi Temple wants nothing more than to be left alone on his small farm. The only thing he wants is a good strong drink, and perhaps a willing submissive to stalk and chase to his primal heart’s content.

But life has other plans for this gruff, irritable beast. Plans in the form of a girl he has been assigned to marry. Will he be able to fulfill his part of the brother’s plans, keeping his new bride safe from the dangers mounting in Zion as events begin to spiral out of control? Happiness seems impossible as they face near insurmountable challenges.

A bit of a dreamer, and a loner in her own right, Eden has always resented her lack of freedom in Zion. Wanting only a life of her own making, she finds herself begrudging her new task in life: to be sold as breeding stock, forced to fulfill Zion’s vision for her as a godly and submissive housewife to one of the Temple sons.

As the new wife of Malachi Temple, she quickly learns he is nothing like she expected a husband to be. Evasive and unapproachable, he does not make marriage easy. Unlike anything she could have expected, Eden’s world is turned on its axis as she uncovers the truth behind the Temple Brother’s secrets. What are they planning? And what part is she to play in it?

Will they find their way together, or will Zion succeed in tearing everything apart in the end?

This enticing game of cat and mouse will lead us to the thrilling conclusion to the Temple Brother’s series!
