I’d endure the fiery pits of hell if it meant I could be with Connor. Although the sandy beaches and blue oceans surrounding us are far from that. Even paradise can be torturous, though. Especially when you’re constantly looking over your shoulder, waiting for someone to storm your safe haven. Waiting for someone to steal your happiness. When you’ve gone against not just one but two underworld families, you’re on borrowed time. One week or one year… it doesn’t matter. Because I’d still choose us.

Aurora. Prey or be prey. It’s the way of life. Me? I prefer option one. Hunting those down who hurt the people I love is my life’s mission. I’ve never allowed myself to be caught in someone else’s sights. At least until now. Love makes you do crazy shit. Which is why when I heard what my family was planning to do to the O’Malleys, I had to take drastic measures. Connor might pretend to hate me, but he doesn’t know I just saved his life. He can thank me later. As soon as we outrun these targets on our backs.

Love and hate. Sometimes it’s hard to see the difference. And right now, it’s love that wins out. Love that has me hunting them down like the animals they are. It’s the driving force that keeps me going. Keeps me fighting. She’s the reason I’m going against everything I’ve been taught. Against every belief I once had. When it comes down to them or her, it’s always going to be her. I’m choosing her. Above everything. And God help anyone who gets in my way.

As a pro-bound college athlete with a good-time reputation, I usually have my pick of puck bunnies. But lately, I’ve been in a dry spell that feels more like a curse, and the stress is affecting my game–the one thing that can’t happen if I’m going to keep building my case for a future in the NHL, starting with making team captain. Enter Penny Ryder. She’s my coach’s daughter, but the moment she pulls me into that ice rink closet and lets me have my way with her, she’s the one thing on my mind besides hockey.

Have you ever loved someone so much it physically hurts? That’s how much I love my best friend, Matteo Valentino. It’s also the reason I’ve done everything I can to make sure he’s firmly rooted in the friend zone. I’d rather keep him at a distance than ruin what we have by giving into the attraction constantly sparking between us. That is until I wake up next to him with no recollection of how I ended up in his bed.

He had his chance. He blew it, and I’m out of here. I’m at the bottom of the pack. I’m female, I have no family left, and everywhere a shifter is supposed to be hard, I’m soft and round. There’s one bright spot in my days—Alec Cameron. He’s hard in every way—so distant that he’s ice cold—but once in a while, he gives me a nod, and we sneak off to the woods. He’s not cold, then. Not at all.

The world is too loud, too bright, too everything. Until I meet him. His touch sends me to a place I've never been. I want more of him, bloodstained hands and all. What happens when the one person I need is the utterly ruthless boss of the Irish mob?

Nessa is my captive, my little ballerina who dances only for me. She's sweet and innocent. She doesn’t deserve any of this. But that’s how our world works. The wolves eat the lambs, no matter how gentle they may be. I’ll use her to get my revenge. Unless I give in to my hunger first.

This wasn’t the life I was meant to live. No, I should be working on solidifying my ladder of ascension. No matter what the cost or what I had to give up. No matter what they made me do. Their little wildflower, that’s who I am. Quiet, meek, gullible. Until I met the one person who changed all of it and became something more. She’s my filthiest secret. And one I intend on taking to the grave.

Most men I date are scared away as soon as they meet my family. Travis isn’t most men. He’s stared down the barrel of my father’s gun without flinching. He should have run, though.
