Kiera McAllister’s life has always been about responsibility. After losing her parents at eighteen, she sacrificed her own dreams to raise her younger sister and keep the family business alive. Seven years later, she’s built a successful life—but one that’s lonely, predictable, and carefully controlled. Everything changes when she crosses paths with Darius Darkfang. As the Alpha of one of the largest werewolf packs in existence, Darius has spent his life protecting his people. When the ancient veil separating the Human Realm from the Fantasy Realm shatters, supernatural creatures are thrust into the modern world. While humans remain unaware of the hidden magic now surrounding them, Darius knows a dangerous new era has begun. Then he finds his mate. The moment Darius catches Kiera’s scent, every instinct inside him recognizes her as his. But Kiera is human, completely unaware of the supernatural world—and the last thing she wants is a possessive stranger turning her carefully ordered life upside down. As tensions rise between humans and supernatural beings, dark forces emerge from the chaos threatening both realms. With war looming and secrets unraveling, Darius and Kiera must decide whether they can trust each other before everything they love is torn apart. In a world where fate has chosen for them, will they fight for love—or for survival?
