Nathan Cross is a shifter born to be an alpha. The loss of his family after an attack on his home of Sweetgrass Island has left him little more than a rogue. The last request of a dying man brings good fortune and Brooke Morgan into his life. While customs dictate that shifters are not to mix with humans, Nathan can’t resist an urgent pull towards Brooke that is much more than fate. 

Working together, they begin to revitalize the island, discovering symbols and uncovering legends that begin to unlock the mysteries that intertwine their troubling pasts. However, a global organization, Omega Development, wants the island for themselves and will do whatever it takes to get it from them. As their bond grows stronger, the odds against them stack higher. When the only choices they have left mean life or death, can they risk it all to stay together?

The Bitten Born

Brooke leaned into Nathan and put an arm around his waist as she felt him tense in anticipation of Aunt Rayah’s response to Cole’s plea. 


“Time will tell,” her aunt replied and received a nod and understanding smile from Cole. She felt Nathan relax against her as he draped his arm over her shoulders and gave her a slight squeeze. She rubbed his back gently in return.  She noticed as a man, short and stout with a close trimmed bearded, approached their group carrying a tray. 


“Hey, boss,” he addressed Nathan and nodded to Cole. “I brought some steaks hot off the grill and cold drinks for you all.” He handed the tray to Nathan and extended a hand to Brooke. “I’m Beau Davis the site manager on your cabin.”


“Hey, Beau.” She shook his hand. “What a great job you’re doing over there. Thank you for bringing the tray for us.”


“Thank you much, ma’am. And you’re very welcome. I hope you enjoy. Well, I better get back to the grill.”
