Darling party girl of the wolf shifter world, Bailey Easton's fun-loving ways disguise a handful of secrets that no one would suspect.
While most wolf shifters go out on the mating tour excited to find their fated mates, Bailey wears a scent-disguising necklace designed to keep her hidden. She has no desire for a mate or even to live the pack life. Not only does she secretly run the supernatural world's news channel, but she has bigger and better plans beyond what the wolf and witch community can offer.
Between fear of being trapped in a life she would hate and an obsessive stalker, Bailey finds that she doesn’t even understand what she truly wants, especially when she's forced to meet her mate and break his heart. Will she cave to her own instincts or resist beyond the expectations for every shifter female?

What happens when your second chance turns into your greatest fear?
Bold, confident, and beautiful, Dina Ryder looks like she has her whole life together. Daughter of a prominent Minnesota Alpha, a well-trained fighter, and an intuitive and aggressive businesswoman, she’s spent years making a name for herself in the supernatural world.
But she’s also 28 years old, unmated, and considered a pack burden by wolf shifter standards—the firstborn passed over for the son. Despite everything, she’s just a female novelty, a prize to be won, and nothing more. After ten unsuccessful years looking for her fated mate and for her place in life, the dormant fears of inadequacy begin to overwhelm her, convincing her she’ll never find happiness or the life she’s dreamed of...until she meets him.
But Alpha Morris shoulders his own burden, a secret passed from generation to generation in his pack. One that will strip Dina of every freedom, of everything she’s ever worked for…and one that will endanger her very life.
★★★★★ "Vampire attacks, two kidnappings, an unexpected fated mate twist, and more than enough spice to fuel the suspense and anticipation." ~Goodreads Review
