elemer of the briar parry

Elian was done with the Guild. Ten years of thankless labor as a merchant clerk was enough. He spent every copper he had on a deed to the Oaken Hearth, a waystation situated on a "busy" road just a week from the capital of the Boundless Wilds. The merchant lied. The "busy road" is a rutted track through ancient timber. The tavern is a ruin. And the previous owner didn't vacate for a "family emergency"—he was eaten. But Elian is an architect of survival. He doesn't need a paved road; he needs a sturdy foundation. By trading leafy greens for Fire-bite peppers and watered-down ale for magical Ember-Draft, Elian begins to turn the Oaken Hearth into a sanctuary for the lethal denizens of the Wilds. There’s just one logistical error he didn't account for: Beastkin biology. As the tavern fills with dominant monster-girls and primal instincts, Elian quickly learns that dealing with his new clientele requires a completely different kind of customer service. From the seven-foot-tall Frost Wolf Alpha who has decided the human clerk is her new mate, to the Centaur caravans seeking a safe harbor, Elian will prove that in the Boundless Wilds, a human's greatest weapon isn't a sword—it's high-tier plumbing, a properly reinforced floor, and furniture built to withstand the affections of his monstrous patrons.

Everyone says opposites attract. And they must be right, because there’s no logical reason why I’m so drawn to Colin Fitzgerald. I don’t usually go for tattoo-covered, video-gaming, hockey-playing nerd-jocks who think I’m flighty and superficial. His narrow view of me is the first strike against him. It doesn’t help that he’s buddy-buddy with my brother. And that his best friend has a crush on me. And that I just moved in with them. Oh, did I not mention we’re roommates? I suppose it doesn’t matter. Fitzy has made it clear he’s not interested in me, even though the sparks between us are liable to burn our house down. I’m not the kind of girl who chases after a man, though, and I’m not about to start. I’ve got my hands full dealing with a new school, a sleazy professor, and an uncertain future. So if my sexy brooding roomie wises up and realizes what he’s missing? He knows where to find me.
