Born without a gift, Haley Michaels is a "magical dud" among werewolves. Desperate for a lifemate, she travels across the country to meet an eligible bachelor from another pack. Instead, she meets the pack's bad-tempered alpha, Bard Bennett. 

​

Despite his rude and brooding demeanor, Haley can't help but be drawn to him. She senses he has secrets—and a softer side than he lets on. Bard tries to send Haley home, but he finds himself captivated by her beauty and intelligence. When a threat from his past resurfaces, he'll do anything to keep her safe. He just has to remember he can't keep her.
