A fated mate, lost.I was eight years old the day I found the other half of my soul—my best friend’s baby sister, still on four paws, too young to shift back into the girl she was meant to become. Right there, I swore to protect her, and to never love anyone the way fate built me to love Anna. But the Bloodmoon Pack has no shortage of enemies, and they stole her before her second birthday. Twenty years later, I’m still searching. I will never stop.A heart, torn.Every so often, an alpha’s daughter from a rival pack wanders onto my land. The first time I saw Kate, she knocked the breath clean out of me—though that might’ve had something to do with the boot she buried in my gut before she dropkicked me into the dirt. She’s everything I have no right to want. She isn’t mine. I can’t have her. I won’t. Because I already belong to a ghost named Anna.A bond, broken.Then Kate shows up begging for my help during a blood moon, when my pack is at its weakest and my control has never been thinner—and I give in. My canines break skin. I claim the wrong woman. It isn’t until I see the Marked Crest ink scrawled across her spine that I come to my senses and tear out whatever’s taken root between us. I throw her out of my bed, out of my pack, off my land—with a vow to put her in the ground if she or any Marked Crest wolf ever sets foot across my border again.I was wrong about almost everything that night.I just don’t know it yet.A War of Hearts and Fate is a steamy, full-of-twists paranormal romance—the first in a dual-POV fated-mates series.
