My ex's bad decisions got him killed. Now, I'm on the run. Working at a funeral home seemed like a safe way to lay low—until one of the bodies jumped off the table and attacked me. Forced to hit the road again, I end up stranded in Shadow Ridge when my car breaks down.

What happens when you embarrass your abusive husband at the office party? You run. That’s how I ended up in a remote town full of werewolves, paired with a tall, brooding wolf who hates me from the moment he lays eyes on me.

I’m a wolf who can’t shift, and because of that, I’ve been treated like nothing my entire life. I was tired of it—tired of staying in a place where I was constantly overlooked. The night I decided to leave it all behind, I found him—broken, bloody, and abandoned in the woods.

I've left it all behind: my father is lost in his addictions, and my brother is busy living his own life. So I hit the road to put it all behind me.

There is unrest in the wolf world. Fights for territories and hostile takeovers are happening everywhere. When tragedy strikes Maya's pack, her mother arranges for her to marry an alpha who can solidify the pack's future. But this alpha is not just strong—he's cruel and bloodthirsty.
