“My boyfriend cheated on me, I threw a cake at him, and the most dangerous Alpha in the north decided I was his mate. The frosting hadn’t even dried yet!” My name is Anne Marlowe, and all I wanted was to open a bakery far away from my family, their taunts, and men who are allergic to fidelity. Then Nathan Blackstone showed up: huge, dark-haired, and about as friendly as a threat carved with a knife. He says I’m his mate, but I say I won’t trade one cage for another, even though kissing him is seriously complicating my argument. Moreover, someone is poisoning his pack, and my mother’s old cookbook seems to contain something more dangerous than a cake recipe. Now I have to find out what my mother was hiding, save a bunch of wolves, and teach Nathan that protecting me doesn’t mean bossing me around. I also have to stop him from cooking again. Last time, we almost lost the kitchen.

Ivy doesn't need anyone. She's got three jobs, a sharp tongue, and zero patience for men who think muscle solves everything. Then a bar fight goes wrong, an infuriatingly gorgeous stranger clears her debt, and suddenly she's stuck working for a hockey player who smells like moonlight and looks at her like she's the answer to a question he never asked. She should have known "assistant" was too good to be true. She definitely shouldn't have missed the part where he's a werewolf. Or that she might be one too. Alex has spent three years running from an arranged marriage, an Alpha title he doesn't want, and a fate he can't outskate. The night he finds his fated mate slinging drinks at a dive bar, he breaks every rule he has to keep her, even the ones that mean lying to her face. But Ivy is done being lied to. Done being protected, managed, and kept in the dark by people who claim to love her. When the truth finally claws its way out about the wolves, the betrothal, and exactly who she really is, it's going to take a lot more than a killer smile and a fated bond to win her back. Someone has spent twenty-one years making sure Ivy never found her way home. Now that she has, they're not done yet. A fated mates romance with bite, funny, filthy-rich family secrets, and a heroine who refuses to be anyone's pawn.

Finley James never asked for the spotlight—she just kept ending up in it. All she ever wanted was basketball. Nothing else mattered. She grew up with the best coaches she could’ve imagined: her brother and his best friend. They were her whole world, the ones who taught her everything she knew. But after she turned eighteen, one night of giving in to her feelings changed everything. And she paid the price. Colton Reed was already a rising star by his freshman year, but the attention never interested him. His heart belonged to the game—and to his best friend’s sister. He knew that was a line he couldn’t cross. He wouldn’t risk the friendships that meant everything to him. Until one night, he did. With the biggest regret of his life and the happiest day of his life all at the same time, he left. He didn’t have a choice. He couldn’t look his best friend in the eyes anymore. Years later they find themselves playing for the same league in the same city.
