A wounded heart . . .
It took Jules too long to escape her abusive marriage. Now that she's free, she has no intention of ever risking her heart again. Once a dreamer, she's resigned herself to spending the rest of her life alone, fading into the background of other people's happiness. That is, until she meets Max.
A healing love . . .
Max knew he'd have to journey beyond his pack's borders to find his mate. He hadn't expected her to be a quiet, skinlocked woman with shadows in her eyes and a wall around her heart. Dismantling that wall will take time and care, but he knows it will be worth it to claim Jules as his mate.
An unforgivable betrayal . . .
But courtship is neither simple nor straightforward between skinlocked humans and wolf-kin. When an ancient enemy forces Max to choose between his own people and the woman he loves, the consequences will be irrevocable, and only a love that defies all odds can keep them together.
Contains mature themes.
