As an Omega, 17-year-old Sarah is used to being at the bottom of the pecking order, even in her new pack and new high school. But her usually-boring life changes when she turns 18. She expects to shift—and nothing happens.

Now, as if being an Omega isn’t bad enough, Sarah is also human. But Sarah, to her surprise, soon finds her mate: in the pack’s handsome and compassionate Alpha. And the lowly Omega finds herself rocketing to the top of her pack’s status as the new Luna. Just as it seems that life is finally going her way, Sarah learns of a terrible betrayal that results in tragic death, exile, and upheaval of what should have been her storybook ending… Or does it?

Sarah continues her journey, as she is put to the test with just how many life-shattering changes she can take. Will she live as an outcast? Or as the most respected member of her pack?

Sarah joins forces with her trusted and true friend, Ayala. Together, they search for Ayala’s true mate, attempt to unlock her shifter powers, and fend off threats from the deadly Coello. Can they escape his mercenaries, Isaac and Regan? Or will Sarah and Ayala fall prey before they can find their true mates?

Ayala, 18, has always been a hopeless romantic and a dreamer. After a whirlwind year, she’s ready to settle into her new life at the Santa Cruz tree house, with Jasper, Isaac, Regan, and the other members of the pack. When she suggests they host a bonfire, Jasper and the rest agree. It seems like a magical night. But when Ayala leans in to kiss Jasper, he backs away. She’s ready to give up on him as her mate when fate forces them into a cross-country road trip together. Soon, they learn they have more in common than they thought. Might he be her true mate after all?


The Alpha's Mate 

It’s lonely in my bed, especially after spending the evening snuggled up close against Sterling. I look in the bedroom closet and find a few more blankets, which I pile up on top of myself in the bed.


The bed here in Sterling’s tree house is much bigger than the one I was sleeping in at Layla’s house. And when I was with the Moon Rabbit, I never slept in a bed. Celestial bodies don’t sleep, and I was a prisoner in a suspended state.


This bed feels so big. So wide. Like an ocean, almost. And I’m floating on it.


It’s just me here, with a guy I only just barely met, far away from my Star Twin, and all my new friends. Even though Sterling is technically part of the San Diego pack, he doesn’t feel like family the way Layla or Sarah or Nash does. 


Loneliness fills my chest, making it painful to breathe. I roll around under the blankets, trying to get warm, trying to find a comfortable way to sleep despite the anxious pressure in my chest.
