Wren and Kenna hated each other in high school. Now mature-ish adults, they still hate each other. The problem? They're engaged. A year away from marriage, according to two of the most powerful people in the world: their parents. ***** Wren Castile and Kenna Gold are engaged...because their parents say so (and no, they're not kidding). Wren has one year to marry her former nemesis, or else. The fact that Kenna emulated her infamously anti-gay father throughout high school seems to be irrelevant--even to Kenna herself. Suddenly Wren and the girl she never wanted to see again are on the same (bickering) side as they face mandatory dates, disastrous family get-togethers, and their unhappy past. Wren is filled with mistrust, but to protect her heart, she might just have to sit back and let it lead the way. Content/Trigger Warning: This story contains references to and/or scenes of homophobia, childhood trauma, bullying, violence, and suicide.

Wolf's Peak Book 4 Fate only gives a shifter one mate in their lifetime but rarely will she give a second chance mate. Fate has watched Adrian find and lose a mate that he loved beyond comparison and she has wept for his loss and anguish. How will he cope with her gift to him? Niko has been a member of The Alpha Guard since he was old enough to shift and fight for his rightful place. He has watched his Alpha and Beta find their mates and sat on the sidelines while the shifter he longed to protect and love found the one destined for him. Niko feels like fate has forgotten him and is ready to give up hope when he finally finds more than he ever thought he could. Adrian watched his mate die horrifically at the hands of hunters on the same night they massacred his entire family and most of his pack leaving only him and his brother alive. He almost allowed himself to turn rogue with grief but pulled himself back from that to care for his younger brother. He never thought he would be given another chance to find happiness and he finds it hard to believe that it's true, but when he's given a second surprise on top of the first how is he supposed to cope? Is Fate playing a trick on him or has he truly been blessed with two second chance mates? Owen loves his sister. He really does. She's just a lot of hard work to take care of. He knows nothing about being a guardian to a seventeen year old girl except that it entails a lot of headaches and arguments about dating the wrong kind of boy. His personal life has taken a nose dive since his one failed attempt at finding a boyfriend which left him feeling embarrassed and ashamed after one night of good sex. All he longs for is a man of his own who will love him and share everything with him. Is that too much to ask? Things don't go as planned for this mating with one shifter refusing what Fate has given him, a teenager with a score to settle and a one night stand that could all spell disaster for this trio.
