Wild Dream

He’s her only protection from the darkness—and the one man she can’t afford to trust.

I came back to the bayou looking for closure.

Not peace. Not healing. And definitely not the kind of man who could burn through every wall I’ve spent years building.

But this place doesn’t care what I want. The moss-draped oaks, the thick, haunted silence of the water—it all feels like it remembers me. And it’s not just memories that are waiting.

Something dark is hunting me. Something twisted and powerful and older than the swamp itself.

I should run. But Lincoln Chiasson won’t let me.

He’s everything I swore I didn’t need—gorgeous, grounded, and tangled up in the same supernatural world my father chose over me.

Lincoln’s loyalty runs deep. So do the shadows in his past. And when he looks at me, I see heat and hunger—and something else I can’t afford to want.

But there’s a curse tearing through his family. Secrets none of them are ready to face.

And if I let him in, if I give him the pieces of me I’ve kept buried, I’m not sure either of us will make it out unbroken.

Because the line between dream and nightmare is thin in the bayou.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant returns to the Louisiana bayous in the next book of her searing Chiasson series.
