Benoit. Thorn's Brew, #3

Life in Monroe is never boring. Being overshadowed by his cousin, Osiris Briggs, is hard. Si is the dragon, the strong one, according to Benoit Raine's mother. According to Ben, Si is spoiled, demanding, and self-centered. No one expects Si to live up to the demands Monroe places on Sons of the Blood. Si is the scale and Ben is the protector. Ben is the responsible one, crushed by the weight of being everything to everyone.
His life doesn't leave room for romance, even if he dreams about the gorgeous Rory Greer from his English class. Ben can't mate until Si does, so he walks away from Rory, never expecting to see him again. When Rory walks back into his life, Rory refuses to take no for an answer. The fire between them is too much to ignore. One touch sparks a flame that neither can tame.
