The last thing Stella Morgan is looking to add to her life is more drama or  heartache. But with one wrong turn, that’s exactly what she gets. When she finally meets face to fang with her mysterious new neighbor.

Billionaire real estate mogul Bennett Orloff is a welcomed addition to the newly gentrified neighborhood of the greater Seattle area. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that he’s tall, dark and gorgeous. 

When he meets his new neighbor, the hair on his neck raises as if fate itself is meddling in his affairs. Finding for him that which he’d never been able to find for himself. A mate for life.

It’s a bond that can’t be broken. 

Ever.

If only she'll say yes.
