Dr. Dana Caldwell has always trusted science. As the Facility's top researcher, she spends her days studying pheromones and hormones—formulas designed to unlock desire in even the most disciplined of werewolves. For Dana, it's all theory, all control. Until the night an accident floods her lab with the very chemicals she thought she understood.
Enter Alistar: a powerful wolf who's spent months at the Facility, waiting for something he doesn't believe he'll ever find. One inhale of Dana's scent, and he knows the truth—she isn't just temptation. She's his fated mate.
The pull between them is undeniable, the heat uncontrollable. What begins as forbidden chemistry soon ignites into something deeper, something fate itself refuses to let them escape. But once an alpha's burning need is awakened, there's no going back… and Dana must decide if she's ready to surrender to a bond that science can't explain.
