Amber Westbrook

Marnie is running for her life, desperate to escape an abusive marriage and protect her young daughter. With nowhere else to turn, they flee to a small town in hopes of starting over. What she doesn’t expect is a community of rugged cowboys who serve as First Responders—or Will, a man stretched thin trying to save his family’s farm. When Will finds Marnie one night, frightened and guarded, his instinct to protect kicks in fast and hard. Drawn to her strength and vulnerability, he becomes determined to keep her safe, even as she struggles to trust again. As danger lingers and emotions deepen, Will must decide if he can break through her walls—and if Marnie can believe in safety, love, and a future she never thought possible.

Alaric: There’s an ache that gnaws at me and nothing can ever numb it. My father sent me on this tour of diplomacy in hopes that it would temper my hotheaded ways and perhaps lead me to my destined mate, who would soften my heart. But I’m the Bloody Alpha, feared and respected by all, and no one can change me. That is, until I meet her.
