But the alternative was to stand by and do nothing while endless wars and other tragedies plagued the lands I called home, and that was something I simply couldn’t do.

For the last several years, Brayden felt like an outcast amongst his friends. Since the day he saw a man shift into a wolf, he knew he no longer belonged in their circle.

Turns out, it wasn’t a dog at all. Kandra was a wolf shifter on the run. She’d fled an abusive relationship, running from a male she once thought she could trust.

For Raven, a chance to serve the royal family was a special privilege. They searched high and low, spending every moment together. Kylest tried to stay focused, but somewhere along the way, Raven became more than just a friend.

Aiden’s world was rocked when he learned paranormals existed. Since then, he’d made new friends, but every encounter only emphasized how ordinary his life was.

When a violent car accident happened right before Honey’s eyes, she jumped into action.

Life seemed to be moving in the right direction at last. Then the fires started. As a wolf shifter with vampire gifted powers, Titus was better equipped to handle emergencies than others.

The stockings weren't hung. The tree was in disarray. Who needed decorations anyway? Two vampires were fighting. Two mates were taking pictures. While a wolf pack watched on taking bets on who'd win.
