A pregnant omega trapped in a desperate situation, an unattached alpha with a lot to prove, and an unexpected fall into love that could save them both.

Kerry Monkburn is contracted to a violent alpha in prison for brutal crimes. Now pregnant with the alpha's child, he lives high in the mountains, far above the city that once lured him in with promises of a better life. Enduring bitterness and fear, Kerry flirts with putting an end to his life of darkness, but fate intervenes.

Janus Heelies has made mistakes in the past. In an effort to redeem himself, integrity has become the watchword for his future. Training as a nurse under the only doctor willing to take him on, Janus is resolute in his intentions: he will live cleanly in the mountains and avoid all inappropriate affairs. But he doesn't anticipate the pull that Kerry exercises on his heart and mind.

As the question of Kerry's future health and safety comes to an explosive head, only the intervention of fate will see these desperate men through to a happy ending.

Bitter Heat (Special Edition) by Leta Blake is a tale of passion, redemption, and the unpredictable journey towards love.
