Bound to the Griffin

He’s sworn to protect the town’s secrets—but she might just unravel his heart.

Gwendolyn

Buying the old Briarwood B&B was supposed to be my fresh start. But Hillcrest Hollow isn’t exactly welcoming. The house is crumbling, the neighbors glare like I’m some kind of threat, and something’s definitely watching me from the woods.

Then there’s Jackson—the town’s sheriff with storm-gray eyes and a quiet intensity that makes my heart forget how to behave. He’s always there when things go sideways, and I’m starting to think those hands could fix a lot more than broken porch steps. The more I dig, the darker the town’s secrets get—and the more tangled up we become.

Whatever’s hiding in Hillcrest Hollow isn’t just folklore. And if I’m not careful, it won’t just break my heart—it might claim everything.

Jackson

The second Gwendolyn arrived, I knew she’d be trouble. Hillcrest Hollow chews up outsiders, and the things that live in the dark don’t take kindly to curious humans. She should’ve left—but she’s still here. And I’m starting to forget why I ever wanted her gone.

She’s fierce, stubborn, and too damn tempting for a man who’s spent years keeping his beast on a leash. But something old is waking, and she’s at the center of it. I swore to protect this town—but I’d burn it to the ground before I let anything touch her.

Even if the real danger… is what I am.

This is Book Three in the Hillcrest Hollow Shifter series, but each book can be read as a standalone. Bound to the Griffin delivers a protective griffin shifter, a bold human heroine looking for a new beginning, ancient secrets, and a sizzling HEA.
