"She was born to protect others, but never knew what it felt like to be cared for-until fate sent six broken men to help her heal. Their souls had found her long before she even knew someone was searching for her."
After years of putting everyone else before herself, Auralee finally faces the truth she's been avoiding-she can't continue to put everyone first when she's secretly falling apart. Struggling with guilt and loneliness, she never expected an encounter with an old family friend and his mysterious companions to change everything.
But these aren't ordinary men-they are six supernatural soulmates, bound by fate and power: a wolf shifter, a dragon shifter, a shadow prince, a fae warrior, a lycan, and a vampire. Each carries their own scars, yet together, they form a protective circle drawn to her in ways she never imagined.
As her world shifts and she starts to see that all of the stories she's read are real, she must decide if she can finally let go of the past, accept their love, and begin healing herself-before it's too late.

Mark of the Wolf (mxm)
Alone. Naked. Cold. Covered in blood that is just as likely to be mine as someone else's. I don't know who I am, where I am, or what I'm running from. All I get are flashes, snippets of dark shadows, sneering faces. Pain always follows these nightmares, these memories. I was found, taken in, but I have no way of knowing if I only escaped the frying pan just to jump into the fire. I don't understand these people, these wolves. They don't understand me, either. Our words mean nothing to each other, they're no more than sounds. We use gestures, facial expressions, body language like the beasts we seem to be. I can only pray these beasts are not the same ones I'm running from. -This story has depictions of violence, depression, panic attacks, gore.
