Iris. Thorn's Brew, #2

Tall, blue-eyed Mallory Hampton fits the Monroe definition of Son of the Blood. He even comes with the Hampton ring. But he isn't a Son of the Blood. He isn't even a Hampton. That honor belongs to Osiris Briggs, who must now fight the council to prove his bloodline before the time limit to mate runs out. The only person ever to tempt Osiris is too young. Almost three years apart, Wes is a secret desire Osiris keeps to himself because he feels like a pervert, but something about Wes has snagged his heart and won't let go.
When Wes shows up to see Hampton House, all grown up, Osiris realizes his mate has been under his nose the whole time. One murder, one ghost, one ring, and time stand between them. Wes is willing to give up everything to be with Osiris, now that his Iris has finally seen him. He's been waiting years for Osiris to notice his existence. One touch is everything for the Sons of the Blood.
