Tara Landon has never experienced love–even worse–she’s endured a lifetime of beatings. After reaching her breaking point, she decides to run away to start a new life without anyone pinning her down or holding her back. 

However, not far into her journey, she is intercepted by soon-to-be alpha Victor Bane, a brooding, mysterious, emerald-eyed man. The thought of him scares Tara as much as it arouses her. 

She doesn’t think much of the encounter until she learns that…oh, she’s destined to be Luna of Victor’s pack. The freedom she sought is quickly ripped away from her and she must make a decision: to accept or reject her fated mate.

“I have you for a lifetime, Tara. I can be patient,” he relayed with an erotic moan.

He looked me in the eyes, as I gestured for him to unbutton my blouse. I whispered, “You might be patient, Victor. But, it isn’t polite to keep a woman waiting.”

“What will it take for you to say yes?” he asked lustfully.

“Something you can’t give.”

The Alpha and His Outlander Luna

Victor and I stood toe to toe in the water. It came up to our waists. Still, we were surrounded by a sea of glittering stars. He held my hands in his, kissing the surface of the water like little lily pads. 


I looked into Victor’s eyes. My heart thudding in my chest, stomach flip-flopping. It was just a fake wedding, but we were about to declare our love for each other, forever. It held a lot of meaning for me. 


“I, Victor Bane, take you, Tara Landon, as my mate and my wife. From this day forth, for as long as we both shall live, you are mine. With the Moon Goddess as our witness, I make this vow to you,” Victor said in a deep, serious voice. 


I bit my lower lip, my cheeks getting hot. I didn’t think he’d see me blushing, but my heart nearly burst from my chest at hearing those words.
