Is there a monster lurking inside every man?
It's 1799 and Cole Seavey is not the man he pretends to be. Nicknamed Cold-Blooded Cole for his steely nerve under pressure, he is not the devoted fiancé or son people believe. Sometimes he thinks he's really a monster with a heart of ice.
Pakim is a Delaware Indian who has lost everything he loves to encroaching settlers -- his family, his people, his way of life.
When these two men meet under the most dire of circumstances, they find in each other a second chance at happiness. But will a brewing border war, their own complicated pasts, and an Indian monster known as a Wendigo threaten their chance to have a life together? To defeat the Wendigo, as well as his own demons, Cole must finally confront the monster inside himself to become the man he is meant to be -- or risk losing everything.
Man & Monster is for fans of Harper Fox, Jerry Cole, and Mary Renault, as well as anyone who enjoys pulse-pounding suspense and romance.
