Nothing warms the heart as much as freshly baked pastries, for Layla the way to her heart is through the oven. 17-year-old Layla has always wanted a mate, someone who would make her feel special, someone that makes her feel she is important. She just wants to matter to someone. She has a past that she would much rather forget, she just wants the future to be bright and it seems like all is well when the moon goddess answers her prayers of a mate. Zayne pierce, soon to be alpha of the green dew pack doesn’t want a mate, a mate is a weakness. But he begins to think otherwise when he meets Layla and it appears as if he can’t take a breath without her, he is willing to give them a chance. But not every love story ends well and theirs fall into that spectrum as he suddenly rejects her. Will the moon goddess ever give them another chance at love? Or is that it for both of them? Or will the past she is so desperately trying to forget drift them further apart.
