Elena Voss is a young woman trapped in a life of silent suffering. After losing her father at a young age, she has endured years of emotional and verbal abuse from her resentful mother and indifferent stepfather. Treated as a burden and a weak link in their werewolf pack, Elena finds her only solace in her loyal best friend Mia and the secret, burning obsession she has carried for years....her late father’s best friend, the powerful Alpha Damien Blackthorn. Since her teenage years, Elena has been deeply obsessed with the one man she should never love. Damien is the handsome, noble gentleman who has haunted her steamy, beautiful dreams. She has repressed her forbidden feelings, watching from the shadows as he remained engaged to the ambitious Lila. But now, with her eighteenth birthday approaching, her mother and stepfather are suddenly called away for a long-term assignment overseas. In a twist of fate, they entrust Elena’s care to Damien. Forced to move into his grand estate, Elena steps into a dangerous new world...living under the same roof as the man she has always wanted and his jealous fiancée. As old secrets surface and a powerful fated bond begins to awaken, Elena must navigate abuse from her past, rivalry in her present, and a love that could either save her or destroy everything.
