Vivi Fenrir had always been drawn to the wild. As a dedicated wildlife biologist, she believed the remote forests of Wyoming would be her sanctuary—a place where she could escape the pain of her past and immerse herself in the study of the wolves she loves. But when a routine field expedition turns deadly, Vivi finds herself at the mercy of ruthless poachers. Just as her life hangs in the balance, salvation arrives in the form of four impossibly strong men. Xander Wilde, the formidable Alpha of the Wilde pack, and his brothers—Dax, Kane, and Vale—are more than just men. They are powerful wolf shifters, bound by blood and an unbreakable bond. When they rescue Vivi, they are stunned to realize she is their fated mate, the woman destined to complete their lives and their pack. But Vivi's arrival in their world is only the beginning. As she is drawn deeper into their secretive and dangerous lives, she must confront the truth about who she is and the power she never knew she possessed. With poachers closing in and a shadowy enemy threatening the pack, Vivi and her mates must stand together or risk losing everything. In a world where passion is tested and danger collide, can Vivi embrace her destiny and the fierce love of four men who would die to protect her?

Scarlett is a she—werewolf, who lacks the basic ability of shifting into her wolf form. All werewolves can only get their mate after they shift, so all hope is lost for her. But her childhood crush—The Alpha King's heir, Rush Rivera is here to save the day and make her a chosen mate. Just when she thinks everything is going too right on the day of her chosen mate ceremony, the Rogue Lycan Alpha comes breaking her doors. He claims that she is his mate and surprisingly, she recognizes him as one. If she is wolfless, then how can she recognize him as her mate? And even if he is her mate, how can she accept him when he killed her parents in a rogue attack three years ago? An attraction they can't deny, a heat season around the corner, and the Alpha King on the hunt for the Rogue Lycan and the wolfless omega, what could go wrong with them?

Elise Clares, a wolf-less shifter, has run away from her pack: her family dead, no friends to turn to and all hope of freedom fleeting as the New Moon pack's warriors close. Jackson Snow, Alpha of the Full Moon pack, hates rogues after they murdered his parents. Finding Elise being chased down by her former pack, Jackson goes against all his instincts and offers her protection... At a price and with prejudice. Elise must get used to a new pack with an alpha who hates her, despite the feelings springing between them, and enemies that could spring out in any direction. She's a rogue he doesn't trust, and he's an alpha with all the power to destroy her, especially with the New Moon pack so desperate to get her back.

Nora Hale didn’t come to Willowfall looking for magic, monsters, or fate. She came to disappear. At twenty-four, Nora is a veterinarian with a kind heart, a quiet nature, and scars no one can see. Fleeing an abusive past, she leaves everything behind for a run-down house on the edge of a small town and a chance to start over near her grandmother. Willowfall seems peaceful enough, wrapped in forest and folklore, until the nights fill with howls and the townspeople whisper about beasts that shouldn’t exist. When Nora discovers a massive black wolf chained and bleeding in the woods, her instincts override her fear. She frees him, heals him, and unknowingly alters the course of her life forever. The wolf disappears before dawn, but his piercing blue eyes haunt her, lingering in her thoughts long after he’s gone. Colton Grimfang is the Alpha of a powerful werewolf pack and a leader forged by duty and violence. Quiet, intimidating, and fiercely fair, he has protected his people for years by keeping their secret hidden. He never expected his fated mate to be human, nor to find her bleeding courage and compassion into the heart of a world that should never touch hers. As rogue wolves stalk the forest and hunters rise from the shadows, Nora is drawn deeper into a dangerous truth. Her past resurfaces in the form of a man who refuses to let her go, and the pack she never knew exists is divided over her place among them. Bound by fate and threatened by war, Nora must decide whether love is worth the cost of leaving her humanity behind, while Colton faces the ultimate choice between his pack and the woman who owns his soul.
