When you’re the only daughter in one of the most powerful shifter families in the pack, everyone has a single expectation of you: find your mate.

But Alexia Rush has always exceeded expectations. While she’s always wanted the kind of love that’s fated by the goddess, she’s also interested in living her own life. But after earning her degree and landing her dream job, she still hasn’t found the one. As much as she hates to admit it, she’s starting to think she never will.

As a last resort, she completes the sacred cleansing ceremony before stepping into a room of eligible shifters, hoping to feel that pull. She never expected that she’d be led to her best friend’s brother and now, future king of the pack, Kai.

Xander Slade planned to never return to his family home after the death of his mother. He has no desire to live under the same roof as the man who made his life miserable. But when his little brother rejects his newfound mate, he can’t find it in him to leave. And thank the goddess because there’s a dangerous stalker on the loose.The difference in age between Xander and Alexia meant they were never close. Yet time and life-threatening circumstances have a way of closing the gap. And their growing attraction for each other has them crossing a forbidden line, leaving Alexia to wonder if the goddess really knows best or did fate get it all twisted.
