Synopsis (Goodreads):

Can a determined human bride save an alien shifter from his beast?

Half human and half Vultor - and rejected by both - Endark has lived his life alone. The only family he knows is the one he has formed with his warrior brothers. But even that bond is not enough to save him from his father’s cruel legacy. His only hope is a mate who will calm his inner beast.

Becky works hard to support herself and her younger brother but it gets more difficult every year. Finding herself in a cozy cottage in the middle of a snowstorm is almost a relief - despite the growly alien male who claims she’s his bride. He is gruff, bad-tempered, and possessive, but he has a loneliness which matches her own.

Becky begins to lose her heart to the fierce alien, but can she risk everything for love? And will their fragile bond be enough when his father’s people find them?

Thoughts on Endark: It's Endark's turn to shine and, uhh, well, he's not all that great at shining, but he's REALLY good at treating a lady right. To be fair about the shining part, Endark's beast is riding him hard and he's incredibly worried about losing his grip on it and causing harm. Which could be mildly problematic.

So. Endark goes along with his brothers' plan to obtain some human brides from the nearby town. Being half Vultor, he scents out the one who calls the most to him pretty quickly. He does his thing and soon their on their way. What he didn't know? Becky is responsible for her younger brother and she's can't quietly stay in Endark's lair when he's out there on his own.

As for Becky, she might not love the life she has in town (meaning, an overbearing employer and just enough stress to make things rough), but she's not about to leave her brother to fend for himself no matter how beguiling Endark is. Fortunately for her, Endark understands what she needs and soon they're a ready-made family. Well, soon-ish.

A snowstorm, a determined brother, a cozy cabin, a lot of time spent together, and an alien family that keeps getting bigger. *thumbs up*
