Bailey West was never meant to fit in.
Ignored by her family, bullied by her peers, and rejected by the future Alpha—the man fate claimed was her mate.
So when Bailey finally escapes to the Autumn Valley Pack, she isn’t searching for a fresh start—she’s running for her life.
Autumn Valley isn’t perfect, but it’s safer. Kinder.
And it’s there that Bailey meets Asher Garcia, the pack’s Beta—a man forged by loss, grief, and seven years of self-imposed isolation after his mate died in battle.
Bailey is everything he doesn’t want, everything he refuses to need. Yet fate has never cared about what either of them wants.
As old enemies rise and the past refuses to stay buried, Bailey must decide—
run again…? or trust a man who has already lost everything once before.
A slow-burn paranormal romance about rejection, survival, and a bond strong enough to heal even the deepest wounds.
