Arianna is the daughter of Devin and Samantha Striker. Her parents had a rough mating, and her father cheated on her mother for a good part of it. Though things worked out for them and they're now happily married, it distorted Arianna's view of mates, so much so that she's determined not to have a mate, doesn't want one, doesn't dream of one. Ashtyn is next in line to be the Beta of his pack, Arianna's uncles pack to be precise. He's lived a care free playboy life ever since he realized girls had boobs. He's got every female he encounters eating out of the palm of his hand, and he always takes full advantage of that, but lately he's been restless. No longer completely satisfied with the constant change of bed partners, he's decided he might want something more, that elusive mate that's out there waiting for him. So what happens when the stubborn defiant Arianna meets the aspiring reformed play boy Ashtyn? A chase will ensue, to what extent will Ashtyn go to win his mate over, and how long will Arianna be able to resist her mate?

Luna has problems. Bigger problems than simply being a werewolf. She ran away from her Pack, making her a rogue - something unheard of. Females are rare, and viciously protected, so why would she leave the safety of Pack life to fend for herself? Well, Luna has secrets. Ones that could destroy her. So what happens when she tries to start over, in a new school, only to find it overrun by an enemy pack? Well she has a plan: lay low and get by unnoticed. Unfortunately nothing is ever as easy as it should be when it comes to Luna. Throw in an assassin frenemy who has secrets of his own and may or may not want to kill her himself, a boy on the brink of losing control, and a mischievous one-of-a-kind pet, and Luna might just be in over her head.

My breath came in short pants and my heart took off at a staccato pace. I felt my skin warm and my blood tingle and this was all just from seeing him again. At first he looked shocked, and then his face turned to a mask of longing. I could hardly believe that I was standing here staring into the eyes of Zach, my Zachary. And then just as quickly a wave of anger washed over his face. I was taken aback by the intensity. He winked at me and then he did the unthinkable. He reached for the girl beside him and laid a kiss on her that would make the Madame of a whore house blush. I quickly turned away and ran off in the other direction. How could I have been so stupid to think that Zach would want plain old me after what I did to him three years ago? He was way to gorgeous to sit around and long for me the same way that I craved him. It was nothing more that just a stupid little girls fantasy, but dammit, why did seeing the truth of it have to hurt so much?
