Tessa Arbour is living the life of a simple girl working at a used book store, but she has her demons, just like any other. In her journey through self recovery, she starts going to a local gym. Little did she know, she'd meet the person who literally haunted her dreams...
Valentino Villa-Lobos is Alpha to the Moonstone pack, and known to the pack as a fair leader, but he comes with a short temper, and a sometimes reckless impulse control. He had been looking for his mate for three years, ever since the dreams started. He knew she had to be real, only she wasn't who he thought she'd be.
Once they meet, their personalities immediately clash. His temper mixed with her attitude creates an unlikely pair, but when a deal is struck up to make amends, they find out what makes them such a good fit for each other. But danger lurks around Tessa's shoulder, and Val isn't going to just let her demons follow her.
Val leaves Tessa's side to do what he thinks is right, only to come back to a broken mate. Tessa had gone through so much heartbreak, that him leaving her was the final stab to her heart. She no longer has the strength to fight her battles, but doesn't want Val to fight then for her.
Can she move past this, and forgive Val, and fight for her life?
Or will she give up, and allow herself to end?
