'She couldn't contain the flame, and it seems to have extinguished with her.'
-Alpha Waylon Blackstone

Desiree Sweetkane works in the Blackstone village as collateral for her father's debt to the pack alpha, Waylon Blackstone. Having known little more than poverty and servitude most of her life, the only hope she has to hold onto is the dream of a shifter she believes will be her future fated mate. When she finally comes face-to-face with him in real life, Declan Blackstone's dark past, troubled present, and frozen heart won't allow him to claim her as his own.  

However, what threatens to truly keep them apart is the real reason Waylon Blackstone brought young Desiree Sweetkane to live in the Blackstone Village in the first place.

Especially, after the fiasco, her stowing away had caused the day before. She was smart enough to realize that she had put them in danger. Remembering the stand-off between them and the captain’s crew, she felt bad. The events had also put them a little bit behind in the journey as well. Plus, she became one more mouth to feed along the way. 


What did she have to contribute to the crew besides getting hurt, or in trouble and as Declan put it, needing a babysitter?
