She was found in the snow—small, silent, and human.But the wolves took her in. And she became one of them.Raised by fangs and frost, Naylea grew up with the wind in her lungs and a wild heart in her chest. The pack taught her loyalty, instinct, and how to survive without needing more than the forest and the moon. But when fate gave her a mate, he tore it all apart with a single word: No.Rejected. Unwanted. She vanished into the only thing that ever made sense—the snow.Until she finds him.Half-buried. Bleeding. Still breathing.A stranger… yet something ancient stirs in her blood the moment their eyes meet. Another bond. One she never asked for—but one she can’t ignore.But in a world where pack loyalty demands obedience and past wounds run deeper than frostbite, a second chance at love comes at a cost.Secrets lurk beneath the ice. So do enemies.And as the snow thickens around them, so does the pull between two souls bound long before they ever met.A slow-burn, fated mates shapeshifter romance full of rejection scars, untamed longing, and the wild, dangerous beauty of choosing love—no matter the cost.

Aurora once thought she had a perfect life when she was a young child. Loving parents but then her parents died leaving her an orphan. And so her fairytale life of being doted on by her parents was tragically cut short as she was placed in a home of a bitter woman who was mateless having lost her true mate years before Aurora’s placement into her home with her two children. From the moment of her parent’s death she was known as the “orphan”, or “the burden” with whispers and taunts on how her parents had committed crimes against the pack. She was a child but that didn’t stop the pack from judging her to be as devious as her parents and from that moment forward she was bullied and treated poorly by not just her “adoptive family” but by the entire pack. Years later, she cannot wait till she graduates from high school and can runaway. Her birthday looms around the corner, and soon she will find out that her mate is one of the many that has tormented her. In her case she is the mate of quadruplet alphas. Will she accept this? Will they accept her or reject her? Only time will tell.
