A shattered spirit.
Five years ago, Sparrow Stone escaped the nightmare that should have killed her. Only a handful of people know she's still alive. Haunted by the torture she endured and fighting the feral beast awakening inside her, she fled with her Alpha and never looked back.
But the visions won't stop.
Night after night, Sparrow watches her fated mate die?and every instinct tells her the dreams are real. To save him, she'll have to return to the place where her captors stole everything she was... and face the monsters she barely escaped.
A shattered heart.
Patrick "Rufus" Peterson, Beta of the Stone Fury Pride, has spent five agonizing years believing his mate abandoned him. The broken bond is driving both man and wolf toward madness, and every day brings him closer to going feral.
Then he catches her scent.
She's alive.
Nothing?not enemies, distance, or the scars they both carry?will stop him from claiming the woman fate chose for him.
But some wounds cut deeper than claws, and love alone may not be enough to heal a bond shattered by betrayal, torture, and five years of heartbreak.
For readers who love fated mates, protective alpha heroes, broken heroines, emotional second chances, and high-stakes shifter romance.
