She needs a safe place to stay. He needs time to convince her that they're fated mates.

Cooper

I'm out for a run one night when someone crashes through the brush right into me.

It takes me a millisecond to realize that I've just found my fated mate.

It takes another second to realize that meeting her for the first time in my wolf form isn't exactly reassuring because, well, she faints.

I carry her home, practicing what I'll say to her as I go.

When she wakes up, though, I learn that there's more standing in the way of us being together than explaining shifters and fated mates to her.

Now I need to keep her safe, all while convincing Landry that she's right where she's meant to be.

Landry

When my sister and I are kidnapped, I'm not sure what's going on or how we'll get out of this mess.

We're separated early on, and I spend days worrying about where and how she is.

When I get a chance to escape, I take it, determined to find someone to help me locate Taylor.

Instead, I find Cooper.

He saves me and reunites me with my sister.

Then he tells me that I'm his.

Now I have to decide my next steps.

​​​​​​​Do I stay with Cooper, or go back to my old life?
