The Centaur's Hucow Engineer

When I traveled to a remote family cabin to heal from my controlling ex-boyfriend, I didn't expect a landslide to trap me—or for my rescue to come from an impossibly attractive centaur who claims we're destined mates.

Ben insists I'm a hucow, a rare magical bloodline designed to transform for monster royalty, and my body's dramatic changes seem to prove him right.

But we're not alone in the wilderness. Government agents have been watching my family's property for decades, waiting for someone like me to manifest abilities. When they attack with military force, my awakening magical powers and Ben's combat training are our only hope of escape.

Fighting our way through underground caves to reach his hidden kingdom of Verdant Vale, I discover I'm not just Ben's mate—I'm part of a larger war between magical beings and the humans who hunt them.

Now I must master abilities I never knew I possessed while helping forge alliances between fractured magical communities, all while carrying Ben's foal and dodging government assassins who'll stop at nothing to capture me.
