"I'm not quite sure how to breath,
without you here.
I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to say goodbye,
to all we were.
Be with me,
stay with me...."

Devin is part of the last herd, struggling to keep her people alive. She is left with only her father and little brother, but still they stand strong.
One night will change everything, forcing Devin on the run away from her dying herd. For years she morns the loss of her family, until her luck runs out. Horse catchers cage her and put her up for sell in the horse market. Devin, must face the dark cruelty of men.

Little did he know that she would be his mate....
Devin is bought by the enemy, but how will she deal with knowing the Alpha's son is her mate? Will she ravel to Blake who she really is?
