For decades, the Blackwood and Roth packs have waged a brutal war, leaving scars that only an arranged mating can heal. Kieran Blackwood, the ruthless Alpha, agrees to bond with Selene Roth—until fate intervenes.  When Kieran rescues Elena Carter, a human woman, from his wolves, an impossible mate bond ignites between them. As their forbidden passion grows, Selene uncovers their affair and threatens to reignite the war unless Elena disappears. But Elena harbors a secret—she’s not entirely human.  With dormant werewolf genes awakening, a shocking pregnancy, and a betrayal that could destroy both packs, Kieran must choose between duty and love—before the woman he loves is torn from him forever.
