About the book
Ghost runs with a raider camp in the monster-filled Wastes, and his anxiety makes every run harder than it should be. In an abandoned military base he finds a winged monster in chains, badly hurt, and can't make himself walk away, even when the camp wants the monster gone and the military wants him back. A tender M/M monster romance with torture and PTSD close behind, high spice, happy ending.
