After ten years on the run, Mara can’t escape the one thing she refuses to believe in: her fated mate. Royce, a powerful werewolf, has always been impossible, infuriating, and impossible to ignore. When fate—or something far more primal—throws them together, Mara is forced to confront the pull she’s fought for years. Thirst, humor, and a spark that won’t quit draw them closer, but trust isn’t given freely. Can Mara let herself be caught, or will her walls keep love and danger at bay forever?

What had I just witnessed?

Who was this man?

And what secrets did the Kingsley Estate keep buried beneath its manicured grounds and placid lake?"

But when her sister vanishes and jilts him at the altar, Scarlett must step into her place as his bride. Now trapped in a marriage she never wanted, she can’t ignore the mysteries swirling around the Kingsley estate—or the chilling night she saw Darius with blood on his blade.
