Wolves and vampires can’t be fated mates. That’s just how it works… or so they thought.
As alpha of the northwest Were pack, Waylon is accustomed to a stoic life of duty. It’s his job to ensure his pack’s safety and ensure they thrive. That duty doesn’t include love. He’s lived a long time and now every Were he sees looks like a pup to him. That’s not appealing in the least. Then a king’s guard moved to town, and he’s perfect in every way for Waylon, except one. He’s a vampire.
Audor was born a Viking. That’s who he’ll always be at heart. When King Jonathan sent him to the north to watch over the small town of Wulfe, Audor gladly obeyed. After all, as his ancestors would say, it was fortunate to be favored. Unfortunately, he’s never been as blessed in love. Until he met a massive wolf with sad eyes, and now Audor is twice as unlucky. Odin has forbidden vampire/Were pairings. This is a dream doomed to fail… or is it?
Unsanctioned is the second book in Charity Parkerson’s Devilish series where vampires, Weres, demons, gods, and all manner of the supernatural live together beneath the noses of humankind. These books are best when read in order.

Waylon, the stoic alpha of the northwest Were pack, has long accepted a life without love—until Audor, a Viking-born vampire and royal guard, arrives in Wulfe. Their connection is instant and undeniable, but their bond defies ancient laws: wolves and vampires are forbidden from being fated mates. Audor, loyal to his king and his gods, knows their love is taboo. Waylon, weary from years of solitude, finds himself drawn to the one creature he’s supposed to avoid. As duty clashes with desire, the two must decide whether to defy tradition and risk everything for a love that was never meant to be… or so they were told.
I loved this story of longing, legacy, and the courage to challenge fate. It was full of forbidden allure and emotional depth as the two men fought a losing battle against the attraction between each other. Both men had a lot of emotional depths full of feelings and passion. Easy to read, feel and understand. This was an MM story with mature content.
