Her breathing was rapid and her hands were trembling with fear, covered in dirt, with the thought that she would die here, alone. The blood slowly trickled down her leg, messy crimson contrasting with her pale skin. She was completely helpless, and if the blood loss didn't kill her, surely the biting cold would. It wasn't soon until she fell unconscious. When Lily's family was killed eight years ago, she'd frantically run out to the woods, where her memories became blurred by the presence of a wolf, a comfort she still wasn't sure was real. The only thing the memory had left her with was a silver streak in her hair. Something she hadn't seen in any other living human being (not one that was natural, anyway). Until Hunter showed up.

When visiting Canada for a wedding, a commitment-averse dive instructor must pretend to date her Australian seatmate to avoid conflict with her ex and judgmental mother. *** Audrey Clarke rarely felt like other women her age. Not as a teen who'd never gushed about gorgeous celebrities, nor at almost thirty, with no desire to marry, have kids, or settle down. She would much rather explore reefs in Southeast Asia and adventure around exciting places. Even when she meets travellers with similar dreams, none are the right romantic match. Until Caleb. When flying home to Canada for her friend's wedding, Audrey dreads confronting the pain she caused her ex and facing her judgemental mother. It drives her to connect with her seatmate, Australian environmental scientist, Caleb, who also craves a distraction. Despite his charm, he is enigmatic about the cause of his stress. They agree to fake a relationship to make their lives easier. The more time they spend together, the more real their act feels. Will Audrey be brave enough to share her true feelings before the trip is over? *** Featured on - Humor's 'Ambassador's Monthly Pick' reading list (Nov 2025) - Ambassador's recommendations "Aces!

"'WHAT THE HELL!' I yelled fuming with anger. I had a tense and rigid posture as my fists and jaw were clenched up ready to beat the living hell out of both of them, but I restrained myself which was the hardest effing thing I had to do in a while.

He was all she could've dreamed of... or so she thought.
