by Dzenisa Jas

"“Please, Your Highness,” she begs. “Let me go.”

“My little mate,” he replies, a cruel sneer gracing his godlike features. “You still don’t understand.”

He lifts her chin with a finger so she’s forced to gaze into his pitch-black eyes. “You are mine. Forever.”

Clarice dreamed of finding her mate. But now, she’s trapped in a nightmare. Held captive by the alpha king of all werewolves, Cerberus Thorne, which is stronger? Her need for freedom, or the mate bond pulling her right into his arms?"

I know exactly how to get what I want.

Being a professional snowboarder is my purpose in life.

I’m only at Cranmore University to appease my parents.

But, if I want to graduate, I need to pass physics.

And, since failing is not an option,

Blackmailing a nerd who hates me is my last resort.

Shay

I’m what some call a geek, a nerd, a loser.

And I don’t care.

I know who I am.

I know where I come from.

And I know exactly where I’m going.

That’s why I’m at Cranmore University.

To get my degree and begin my life.

But that plan gets quickly derailed

Thanks to an unbecoming video

A blackmailing snowboarder

And his ex who’s hell bent on making my life miserable.

They say everyone comes into your life for a reason.

What happens when that person is the opposite of what you want

but exactly what you need?
