Edge of Obsession by Megan Crane: Tyr is the raider war chief of his clan. He lives to fight, protect the brotherhood, and enjoy the camp girls without getting entangled in love or commitment. After losing his brother, he’s sworn to avenge his death and never let anyone close again. Helena is on a mission to carry out the family legacy, but she’s trapped in a small community with little hopes of escaping before the winter hits.
Tyr and his clan are on a mission to raid and gather supplies for their island-based clan before the winter hits. Tyr has remained vigilant and always on the watch for Krajic, the mercenary who killed his brother. After being provoked, Tyr and a few raiders take the community where Helena lives. While there is nothing of substance for the clan, Tyr does kidnap the lovely, but outspoken, Helena.
“It’s simple. Keep me happy.”
She didn’t mean to laugh at that, though it was an empty sound, and make his dark gold eyes narrow. “Is happy something you do?”
“You better hope so, sweetheart,” he growled at her, though there was a gleam in his dark gold eyes. She was sure of it. “You better pick a god and pray. Now walk.”
Helena is smart, loyal, determined, and sometimes reckless; she knows that she wasn’t going to be able to take her life in the community for much longer, but being Tyr’s captive leaves her without the independence she needs to carry out her duty. She challenges Tyr constantly as she tries to come to terms with her growing attraction to a man kings and priests have taught her to fear.
Tyr is not used to being challenged, much less by a woman, but he finds that he loves Helena’s backbone. They have great chemistry and Tyr thoroughly enjoys showing Helena a whole new side of herself and what she’s capable of.
“What part of make me happy was that?”
“I can do it myself.” She considered. “For your pleasure I mean.”
“It’s not a death sentence, Helena. Most women fight for the privilege to please me. Maybe rethink the dire tone.”
Edge of Obsession is a sexy, thrilling battle of wills that keeps you engaged until the very end. Megan Crane transports you into a new and desolate world where kings, priests, mercenaries, and raiders collide. Ms. Crane ramps up the heat and banter as Tyr and Helena challenge each other at every turn. Fans of Kit Rocha, Roni Loren, and Shayla Black will enjoy Edge of Obsession.

USA Today bestselling author Megan Crane’s smoldering new novel will leave readers … obsessed.
Tyr, a powerful man in a destroyed world, needs only three things to survive: his weapons, basic resources and a rotation of women to serve his voracious sexual needs. But when a beautiful prisoner grabs his attention during a mission to restock his clan’s supplies, Tyr’s alpha instincts give way to something much darker–strong, unquenchable lust that cannot be ignored…or denied.
After two years on the run, Helena is snared by this dominant group of men who roam the land unchallenged. Strong to her core and with a mission of her own, Helena knows she doesn’t have to be their captive for long. But despite all the terrible things she’s heard about these brutal beasts, Helena is overcome by intense desire for the ruthless man who has taken her. As their scorching passion escalates, Helena will have to trust in Tyr in order to save both what’s left of this desolate, torn-up world…and herself.
