The Iron Pact

Liam "Stonewall" Korbinian isn‘t just the New York Vipers‘ star goalie—he‘s something far older. Beneath the gear and glory lies a protector bound by the Iron Pact , an ancient brotherhood of Gargoyles sworn to defend humanity from the monsters that walk unseen. For centuries, Liam‘s lived by one rule: never reveal his true nature. But when a dangerous demon targets his rookie teammate, and an ambitious reporter begins asking the wrong questions, his carefully built world starts to crumble. Elara Vance lives for the truth. Chasing stories and exposing secrets is what she does best—until she meets Liam. Her latest investigation was supposed to uncover what makes the Vipers unstoppable. Instead, it leads her to something impossible... and to a man who shouldn‘t exist. As dark forces rise and the fragile veil between worlds weakens, Liam and Elara must decide what‘s more dangerous— the monsters hunting in the shadows, or the forbidden love growing between them. When the final play begins, will they fight for duty... or for each other? A pulse-pounding urban fantasy filled with danger, desire, and heart-stopping twists. Perfect for fans of Nalini Singh, Ilona Andrews, and The Mortal Instruments.
