Wolfbreed

When a monk uncovers a lair of werewolf young, he unleashes a power unseen in demons or men. The Teutonic Order--the most powerful military organization in Christendom--has clandestinely raised these ferocious beasts to serve as instruments of God. Known as wolfbreed, the lupine creatures are able to cloak themselves in human form. Trained to slip into villages unnoticed before commencing their slaughter, they are all but unstoppable. Only one, called Lilly, has cunningly fled her brutal master...

Young Uldolf doesn't remember the massacre eight years earlier that claimed his village, his arm, and his kin, leaving him to be raised by his uncle's kind family. But he knows the pain of loneliness, and when he sees what he believes is a beautiful young girl, injured and cowering in the woods, he runs to her aid and carries her home.

Uldolf and his family will do anything to protect the terrified girl...but the danger they face is greater than they can possibly imagine. For death is the only life young Lilly has ever known. Can their care pierce the darkness she harbors in her soul? Or will her secret cause her to lose everything she has to gain... An innovative mix of historical fiction, romance, and the paranormal, here is a riveting tale of loyalty, love--and what it truly means to be human.


Genre: Paranormal Romance

"A mesmerizing story that entertained me thoroughly and moved me deeply. Lilly's Song is an exciting, non-stop action adventure involving the supernatural. More than that, though, it demonstrates how the human spirit, even when in a not-entirely-human body, can be transformed and redeemed by the power of love. I adored this book." - Mary Balogh

"S.A. Swann has written a spellbinding fantasy of the Teutonic Knights and the great Northern Crusade, set in a little-known period of history amidst the gloomy forests of Prussia and Lithuania. Vivid and visceral, dark and delicious, this one kept me turning pages from start to finish." - George R R Martin
