a lone wolf and she had no desire to join a pack, but that didn’t matter to a
true alpha wolf like Mason Daniels. When he finds out that human hunters have
been threatening Dani, he puts his mark on her.
Unfortunately, the
hunters are foolish enough to disregard his mark, and Dani is captured. After
Mason and his pack rescue her from certain death, Dani is given no choice about
joining Mason’s pack for her own protection. She soon learns that Mason is

With more hunters
closing in and the pack under threat, Mason begins to realize that he must claim

drives him mad. At the same time, she is forced to learn her role in the pack
