Instinct

As a young, twenty one year-old werewolf, Rhiannon Bradwell fought tooth and nail against pack society to pursue the kind of independence she yearned for for years. After successfully graduating college early with an unprecedented yet aggressive determination, Rhiannon was on track to graduate school to receive her doctorate in Biochemistry at the prestigious program at the University of Virginia. Goodbye sexist pack laws and hello virtual freedom.

However, the price of independence comes at a cost.

Having to suffer a few more months under the strict pressures of being a female in a predominantly patriarchal pack, Rhiannon grits her teeth and endures it all until she's ready to bail, but with the looming Mating Festival, Rhiannon wonders how long she could last out before she lashes out.

Unfortunately for her, she didn't expect to be the sole target of a single-minded determined Alpha werewolf...

Pack leader, Alpha Nathan Weston, whose own discovery that Rhiannon is his mate, is forced to reevaluate everything he knows about the she-wolf. He's not sure how to approach the stunningly gorgeous and ambitious female who has a mind of her own and determined to pursue her life without a mate. With a head-strong, opinionated nature so unorthodox of the female wolves he was used to dealing with, can Nathan convince Rhiannon to give him a chance or will his territorial, aggressive, alpha personality prevail in warding her away?

Sometimes, it's just predicated upon Instinct.
