Fated doesn't always mean forever
Zane
Annika Hagen is mine.
My wolf knows it. I know it.
But recognizing my fated mate doesn't guarantee us a happily ever after. Hell, I can't even guarantee that my unpredictable wolf won't hurt her.
So while I'll do anything to protect her from the coyote shifters who want her dead, I can never claim her as my own.
Not when my history has shown I'm a bigger threat to her than any of the other paranormal predators in this small town.
Annika
All I wanted was to run my bakery in peace.
Now, there's a supernatural war on the horizon. The coyotes are attacking the Black Rock Guardians because of what I did. And turning myself over to them to keep my family safe isn't an option.
Because my grumpy, sexy, wolf shifter bodyguard won't let me.
If I'm lucky, I'll make it out of this mess alive. My heart, on the other hand, might be a lost cause.
Especially when Zane seems so determined to keep me at arm's length.
