Lucy Montgomery never thought she'd set foot inside the Werewolf Breeding Facility. At twenty-seven, the soft-spoken English professor has spent her life behind books and quiet lectures, not in the arms of an alpha. But after a crushing breakup that left her feeling invisible and unwanted, Lucy makes a daring choice. She wants to feel desirable again. She wants to be seen. What she doesn't expect is Robert — scarred, broad-shouldered, and impossibly intense. An Alpha who was supposed to be seeking only release, not connection.
Robert has always been in control. As Alpha of his pack, discipline defines him. But the moment he meets Lucy, the walls he's built begin to crack. She's soft where he's hard, warmth to his cold restraint — and when fate reveals she's his mate, Robert faces the one thing he's never allowed himself to do: surrender. Caught between tenderness and primal hunger, Lucy and Robert must decide if they'll give in to a bond that could consume them both. Once an alpha knots his mate, forever isn't a choice — it's destiny.
