Taming the Beast
About this audiobook
Can they find a way to move past their dark secrets and find solace in each other?
Returning to his hometown in Tennessee, Samuel Campbell is searching for absolution. He made a promise in Wharton to never hurt another human ever again. Coming home is the ultimate test. There are dark memories here, a trail of bodies left behind by a once-rabid wolf. In Sevierville, he discovers the hardest part of confronting his past is facing his own conscience.
Kindergarten teacher Nadia Montanari is accustomed to whispers and stares. After all, she is recently divorced, which is the absolute *worst* thing a 1940’s American woman can be. Then, she discovers she is pregnant. If her secret comes to light, her livelihood will be taken from her. Her family will disown her. She’ll be a pariah.
When Samuel and Nadia meet, sparks fly. But both are harboring relationship-ending secrets. And there’s something far darker too: Nadia has met Samuel before. She was nearly one of Samuel’s victims back in 1937, though neither one can remember.
