Juneau just wants her life to go back to normal. After some strange magic emerges from a desire to save her best friend, all she wants is to work in the library and help Luci make her little books. That’s it. Fate, it seems, has other things in mind for her. When she takes a trip into the forest to calm her nymph side, she’s confronted by a stranger with a name on his tongue - a name she’d hoped to never hear again. He wants to take her back, to a life she never wanted in the first place, but she’s not going without a fight.

Banner doesn’t have any choice but to drag her along. A bounty hunter in a land leery of hired muscle, he turned to poaching to keep from starving. When caught red-handed on the Marquess’ land, he gives the werewolf two options - go to prison and await the hangman’s justice, or take the mark of the Judge and swear to retrieve his runaway daughter so he can make a political match. Whether he refuses or fails, the price is the same - his life.

Thorn’s Vow is book six in a series of standalones featuring plus-size MCs, and can be read separately from the series (though it does contain some spoilers for the ending of the previous book).
