In the battle between good and evil, the Knights of White struggle with the Darkland Beasts for all of humanity. The leader of the Knights is Jag, a man tortured by both the beast he feels raging inside of him, and by the dreams. Since the day he was made immortal after the Darkland Beasts took his life and that of his beloved wife’s, he has felt nothing but the need for vengeance. But the dreams bring new feelings, new temptations in the form of a beautiful woman, who in these dreams causes him to lose control over the beast in his soul he fights to repress.

Karen is a mortal who has been searching her whole life. For what she has no idea, but her need to find it becomes more apparent to her each day. When she is unknowingly manipulated by an evil being, she finds herself led to the Knights of White, and to Jag. She feels a strange connection to him, and though she doesn’t know why, he feels strangely familiar, and oddly like the missing piece she’s been awaiting.

When Jag meets Karen, he instantly recognizes her as the gorgeous temptress from his dreams. But his suspicions of her motives and his fear of losing control cause him to push her away from him. But when the cause of the dreams becomes clear, and their destinies are revealed, it’s not a matter of Jag trusting Karen any more; it’s a matter of trusting himself.

The Beast Within is an exciting and emotional story of soul mates, accepting who you are, and trusting in the ones you love. Lisa Renee Jones has created not only a marvelous, suspenseful story, but an assembly of characters that are completely unforgettable! The Knights are sure to be some of your all-time favorite heroes, and you become attached to each one in just the first book! The connection between Jag and Karen is deep and powerful, and the reader is left riveted by their love story. Join the hero and heroine, along with the other Knights you will come to know and love, in their fight against pure evil, the Darkland Beasts. Lisa Renee Jones’ Knights of White series is a paranormal essential that will sweep romance readers off their feet!
