Isabelle was never meant to belong in Blackthorne Pack. Found abandoned as an infant and adopted by the Alpha and Luna, she grew up as the pack's only human daughter. And from the moment she could walk, she followed Henry Sinclair everywhere. The future Alpha. Her best friend. Her first love. Everyone knew they belonged together. Everyone except Henry. Too proud to fight for her. Too afraid to choose her. Too certain she would always stay. When Isabelle finally asks him what she means to him, Henry gives her no answer. So she leaves. Months later, Isabelle returns with an engagement ring on her finger and a new life waiting for her beside Adrian Valerius, a respected Lycan heir who offers her the one thing Henry never could-a future. Only then does Henry understand what he has lost. But by then, it is too late. As tensions between Lycans and Werewolves erupt into violence, Henry spirals into a reckless life of fights, alcohol, and dangerous hunts beyond pack borders. The only person who seems able to reach him is Seraphina, a mysterious Lycan woman who falls in love with the broken wolf everyone else has given up on. But Henry's heart never left Isabelle. Not when she got engaged. Not when she got married. And as war tears the supernatural world apart, Henry begins a desperate journey to see Isabelle one last time. Because some wolves lose the love of their lives. And some realize they lost her years ago.

As a lowborn nobody, Essa has managed to garner a reputation for herself as one of the pack's best warriors. She's utterly lethal in the pit, but all that skill and talent isn't enough to raise her pathetic life out of the trenches of their archaic class system. She's stuck, desperate for a break from the monotony of her daily life, and greedy for just a little bit more money. Even with the title of alpha firmly rooted in his grasp, Silas fights daily to gain recognition within the shifter community. All he needs is a little sway with the elders, and he could have those pig-headed fools eating out of his palm. However, this is easier said than done. Silas is a pariah. He deals in human affairs and runs multi-billion-dollar corporations that the High Council of Shifters absolutely abhor. When Essa collides with Silas, there is so much between them that she's convinced this mating will never work. On paper, Silas is much more than she deserves, but as she starts to peel back the layers of his life, she's consumed by more deceit and violence than is possible for one man... Silas has enemies... enemies that want him dead. Enemies that fight for territory all over the city of New York. And to the humans, Silas is known as something far worse than a werewolf. He earned every bit of the title given to him when he took over as the head of his mother's familia, a familia that is rooted in brutality and just so happens to be the largest mafia circle on the East Coast. Now Silas's enemies are hers, and even if Essa is a demon in the fighting ring, her skills are nothing next to the pistol sitting against her temple. The people who want him dead have found a sure way to do it, and Essa is their first-class ticket. ** Regular updates **

Arriving at university with a broken friendship, an overbearing mother, and more baggage than she cares to admit, Sage is desperate for a fresh start.
