Owen:
I was handed a miracle. I found my soulmate. Only I never thought that she would reject me.
Selina is mine. She is my future. My everything. Until she rips my heart out. Now I spend my life in vicious fights, or in strangers’ beds, using my body to dull the never-ending agony she left behind. I know I’ve neglected my pack, my duty, even my brothers. When the inevitable death challenge comes for my position as Beta, it’s from someone I trusted. But it never happens. Instead, I’m ordered to take over as Alpha to the Canadian pack, to hunt and kill whoever is suicidal enough to kidnap and threaten our kind. But Fate, bitch that she is, throws my soulmate into my path once again. This time, though, I’m ready. This time I have armoured my heart against her.
At least, that’s what I tell myself—until I’m staring into those beautiful eyes.
While hunting the missing shifters, I discover there is more to this mission than any of us realised. The stink of evil permeates the town and danger appears at every turn. But I am a Shadow Sentinel, a warrior, an Alpha, and above all else, I am a shifter with a mate who needs me. I will protect her. This time she will not push me away. She is mine. This time there will be no running. For either of us. Because this time I will win her.

Selina:
My name is Selina. And I am a wolf-shifter with a damning secret.
The scars I carry are a testament to my violent past. But the worst one is on the inside. And I can never reveal it, especially not to the sinfully sexy and powerful alpha, who is my soulmate.
Four years ago, I watched Owen Brady leave to fight in the demon war with the Shifter King. Now he’s back, and he’s the King’s Beta, one of the Shadow Sentinels, the most powerful shifters in our world. And he’s made it clear he wants me.
But if I stay with him, my secret could shatter his life and undo all I’ve done to protect my son. I won’t do that. I can’t. Not to my soulmate and not to my son. So, with my heart in tatters, I walk away.
But Fate is a cruel bitch. After a year of living with my actions, she throws him right back into my life. Only this time, he’s battle-hardened and cold as hell.
No matter his hate for me, I can’t walk away, not when danger lurks so close. Protecting my soulmate and my son is everything. My secret might ruin my life, but I won’t let it ruin theirs. Ever.
