He was the best mistake she ever made… …and he might just be the death of her. Many years ago, Heather threw a coin into the old fountain and made a wish. She wished that the man of her dreams would come and sweep her away, far away from the home where she’d always felt ignored and unwanted. Now, she’s grown up, and she’s learned better. You can’t count on anybody to make your future better. You can only build it yourself. And you especially can’t count on Cole Jackman. It’s been nearly a decade since their tumultuous high school romance, but Heather can’t quite shake the memories. And when Cole stumbles back into her life, she learns that she still can’t control herself around him. But she’s no naive little girl anymore, and now, Heather sees something she missed before: Cole’s hiding a great big whopper of a secret. Something dark. Something dangerous. Something…furry. As Heather uncovers the truth, she finds herself caught in a centuries-old conflict that puts her on center stage. Her dual destinies - one as Cole’s mate, and one as his sworn adversary, have made her enemies on all sides. And to make matters worse, she just can’t seem to keep her hands off of him. Can she find a way to tame his wolfish nature, and bring peace to the Douglas Mountain clan before it’s too late?

\\ Two cougars. One arranged marriage. Tattoos, curves, and hate-sex. What could possibly go wrong? \\ Cougars play rough. I’m no exception. But when it comes to Livvy Parker, the claws really come out. Something about her just gets under my fur. I don’t know what it is - the lush curves, the snarky insults, the holier-than-thou attitude…my life would be a lot easier if I could just go back to my clan and forget she exists. But no. Hell no. Life can never be that easy. The only way to keep the peace, to honor a centuries-old pact between our families…is to make her my wife. One thing’s for sure - neither one of us is gonna come out unscathed.
