{Book 1 of the werewolf series}
All Ellis Hook has ever known is survival.
In a small Washington town that never forgave him for existing, he learned to hide behind sharp smiles, empty beds, and a haze of bad habits. When the last of his luck runs out, Ellis packs up what little he owns-his loyal dog, a few regrets, and a heart stitched together by defiance-and heads for Montana, chasing quiet he's not sure he deserves.
He finds anything but quiet.
Atticus Luther and Jasper Scott are the Alphas of the Half Moon Pack-two men bound by a soul-deep connection and the weight of leadership. Their world is one of secrets and loyalty, unseen by human eyes. For years, they've led together, strong and whole... almost. Something has always been missing, an emptiness neither can name-until Ellis stumbles into their territory and turns their carefully ordered lives into chaos.
He doesn't believe in destiny. They can't ignore it.
As old wounds surface and trust is tested, Ellis is forced to face the ghosts he ran from-and the two men willing to fight them beside him. But love that powerful demands honesty, and healing a past as fractured as his might shatter them all before it saves them.
In the wild heart of Montana, where monsters wear human faces and wolves hide in plain sight, three souls collide in a story about survival, forgiveness, and the terrifying beauty of being truly seen.
Book 2 in Stray Series.
I know I'm not worthy of a second chance. I've taken away so many others' second chances. I took their lives in my hands and each time chose mine over theirs.
It didn't matter who they were, if they had family, how old they were. I had a job to do.
If I heard even a whisper, it was over. I had to. I didn't want to, but I had to.
It didn't even matter in the end. She's gone now. I'm all alone.
Somehow, for some reason, a second chance was bestowed on me.
But I don't want it. I can't have it. And he knows it too.
