When I first laid eyes on the imposing castle nestled in the White Mountains of Vermont, I had no idea that my life was about to change forever. As a romance writer, I've written about my fair share of beautiful places, but nothing could have prepared me for the mysteries that lay within those ancient walls - or the enigmatic being who called it home.

But it was his eyes, filled with a profound sadness and loneliness, that drew me in. As I spent more time with Griiq, I saw past his monstrous appearance and into the heart of a compassionate leader who had sacrificed everything for his people.
