The day I watched my mom's pack destroy her, was the day I knew I had to run from the shifter cities. Mom and I share the same designation, which means we'll share the same fate. For ten years I hide from the cities and the alphas who control them. Until my luck runs out. Dragged to Golden Claw against my will, they charge me as a rogue. I'm facing death until one of the strongest alphas in the city scents me as his match. Scents me... and claims me. Even worse? He's part of the most powerful pack of alphas the cities have ever seen. I have to reject them. It's the only way to avoid my mom's curse of fate. And my own. Except, these alphas have never been rejected a day in their lives, and they're definitely not about to start now. * This is a romantasy with very dominant and possessive male main characters.

I’m a school nurse. I can handle anything. Then Saltford Bay got a new elf doctor. He’s cold, allergic to smiling, and thinks I’m a chaos magnet. Also… he’s so hot it’s unfair. And if he kisses me like that again, I migth forget how much I hate him. Dr. Lorian Reizenhart is tall, cold, and terminally allergic to smiling. He’s all sharp cheekbones, glowing blue eyes, and a glare that could sterilize a hospital wing. He thinks I talk too much, smile too easily, and get in the way of his perfectly ordered world. I think he’s the most insufferable man I’ve ever met. One more thing I hate about him: he’s stupidly hot. Unfortunately. Our first meeting ended with a room full of crying third graders and a flying carrot. So I taped a glittery crayon drawing to his cold, sterile office wall. Just to be petty. Now, a Pixie-Pox outbreak has forced us to work side-by-side, and the tension is unbearable. He hates my chaos. I hate his control. So why did he kiss me like I’m the last woman on Earth… and then run like it never happened? Worse, why do I keep looking for more? I was ready for magical mayhem, not a slow-burn war with the town’s grumpiest doctor. But the closer we get, the more I realize: behind his icy demeanor is something burning. And I’m already melting.
