The brutal alpha of our rival Shadow Pack has a reputation for serving up malice and pain. Where he comes from, wolves roam free and lawless. A treaty forged over a hundred years ago is the only thing standing between all-out war between our packs. We're Willow Creek wolves-refined, traditional, obedient, and I play the part of a good, little fiancee to Zade Crawford-my betrothed, and the alpha's son. My future has been mapped out, which means I know who I am and what my purpose is. Until I lock eyes with Phoenix at the treaty renewal, and the unthinkable happens. Phoenix fucking Adair is my moon-fated mate. Before I can process this life-altering news, the asshole publicly rejects me, and I find out everyone has been lying to me my entire life. That's when I know it's time to make some changes. Leaving Willow Creek is the hardest thing I've ever done, but I refuse to remain in a place that feels so wrong. Except, I know nothing about what it means to be a shifter, nor how to survive without the creature comforts I've known all my life. When I cross into forbidden land, danger finds me. And then I find the one wolf I fear the most. Phoenix fucking Adair. Contains mature themes.
