For as long as Isabel can remember, she’s been a rogue. Her parents are deceased; she has no pack, no mate, and no one at all except for her older brother Ben. She’s grown used to being a nobody, the butt of others’ jokes, and for the most part, alone.

But during a routine errand gone wrong, Isabel stumbles onto a pack’s territory and comes face to face with a fierce—and devastatingly attractive—shifter the likes of which she’s never seen or felt.

Isabel is certain this is her mate. But will he accept her, a nobody rogue? Or will he reject her to maintain his status in his pack?

With growing danger at every turn, Isabel finds herself in the center of a desperate war between amassing rogues and a fearsome pack, working not only to uncover the mystery of what happened to her once-happy family, but to win over the man she is certain is the love of her life.

“Demonic?” I stare at him, uncomprehending. 


“I don’t understand,” I feel tense. “Why were they after me? Why did they try to kill me?”


“They weren’t here to kill you,” The figure corrects me. “They were her to capture you.”


“Balin, we need to move,” One of the men says, his voice grim.


“Wait!” I cry out in panic. “Let me take some things from my home. My mate’s – At least let me take a picture.”
