Fated mates. Pack war. A stalker closing in. And a bond that must be claimed by the solstice… or lost forever.
Finley Creek is breaking.
Rogues are breaching the borders.
Pack is turning on pack.
And Alpha Rowan North is running out of time to stop a full-blown territory war.
If he loses control, the town burns.
If he loses Rosie, he loses everything.
Because Rosie isn’t just a human anymore.
She’s his mate.
His soul.
And the wolves who once wanted her gone now see her as the pack’s greatest weakness.
—or its greatest asset.
But danger is coming from every side.
A stalker from her past has finally found her.
The pack is fracturing.
Rowan’s grieving son is spiraling.
Secrets long buried are tearing the town apart.
And there’s one more cruel twist:
If Rosie and Rowan don’t fully accept their bond by the winter solstice, the mating tie will snap.
Forever.
Now it’s not just about survival.
It’s about choosing each other—blood, claws, and all—even if the whole town goes up in flames.
Because this time?
The wolves aren’t the only monsters hunting her.
And Rowan North has never been more dangerous than when something threatens his mate.
