She walked away from everything that should have mattered...
Now fate is about to claim her anyway.
Devlin Frazier has spent his life exactly the way he wants it-free, unattached, and far from the complications of love. As a powerful wolf shifter and a respected attorney, he's always been in control. Until the moment he meets her. Lisa Gunther has fought her own battles-surviving the military, building a life from nothing, and refusing to let anyone control her future. She doesn't believe in destiny, fairy tales... or mates. But Devlin isn't offering her a choice. Because in his world, mates aren't found-they're claimed. As danger closes in and enemies from Lisa's past resurface, the bond between them becomes more than instinct-it becomes survival. And the closer they get, the harder it is to deny the truth neither of them wanted: Some connections are stronger than fear...
Stronger than freedom...
And impossible to escape. In a world of power, passion, and primal instinct-walking away may no longer be an option.
