Wake had lived in fear for far too long. Life hadn’t been easy for him. Every day he resisted his natural instincts to claim the one female meant for him. An event from his past stopped him in his tracks every time his primal urges pushed him toward her. Paige accepted the role she played in Wake’s life. She was the one he wanted but never allowed himself to have. But when someone else showed interest in her, Wake had to decide once and for all. Putting his heart on the line left the shifter vulnerable, something he never wanted to be again. And just when he gave in to his instincts, fate dealt the pair a cruel hand. Nightmares came true, causing Paige to flee to the only place she felt safe—in the arms of Wake. Pack life wasn’t an easy life, but Paige wouldn’t give up the man who held her heart. Only together could the two move forward and find the happiness they both deserved.

As a young vampire, Ford had experienced more than those much older than him. The love of his life left him. He fell for his best friend. People he considered friends were killed. Blood was on his hands. Through it all, he never forgot his first love. The one who stole his heart then shattered it when he least expected. When Sienna left Ford and mated with another, she thought she’d found her companion for eternity. Except, her life didn’t play out that way. Her mate was killed, leaving Sienna a shell of the shifter she once was. Ford wanted Sienna back, but the choice had to be hers. Then her life was in danger, and his plans changed in an instant. All that mattered was keeping her safe. Reaching a crossroad, they were helpless to fate’s plan. Ford was left standing before Sienna, wearing his heart on his sleeve, waiting to see what she’d do next.

As fae prince, Kylest treated protecting his people as a sacred honor and duty. His sister’s unexplained disappearance dealt a blow to his heart and pride. He would leave no stone unturned in his search for her. Raven, a common fae, never dreamed Prince Kylest would ask her to help find the princess. Turning him down never crossed her mind. For Raven, a chance to serve the royal family was a special privilege. They searched high and low, spending every moment together. Kylest tried to stay focused, but somewhere along the way, Raven became more than just a friend. He wanted more. He wanted her to be his. Fate worked in mysterious ways, even if it had terrible timing. The princess was still missing. Chaos erupted. Enemies resurfaced. The only way Kylest and Raven would emerge unscathed was to admit love made them stronger together.

Cocky. No word better described Solomon. He projected the playboy image, but only he knew the truth. Deep inside, he wanted what his brother and friends had—a mate. Fifteen hundred years was a long time to be alone. Solomon’s pure vampire bloodline and family name made him desirable, but that didn’t take away the loneliness. Lilah was fiercely independent and distrusting of paranormals out of necessity. Some treated her with contempt because of her half cheetah shifter/half fae heritage. They thought she was beneath them when she was actually superior. Someone was determined to take Lilah’s life, but who was behind the attacks remained a mystery. Solomon fought off the first assault then became Lilah’s sole protector until he uncovered who wanted to harm her. One wanted a mate, and the other didn’t. But fate didn’t ask for their opinion. They could only fight what was meant to be for so long before the inevitable happened. If they managed to stay alive, maybe they would learn what it meant to be fated.

The stockings weren’t hung. The tree was in disarray. Who needed decorations anyway? Two vampires were fighting. Two mates were taking pictures. While a wolf pack watched on taking bets on who’d win. Oh, no, poor Solomon just took a hit to the chin! Revenge would be swift. The brothers don’t play. Ford would get his by the end of the day. The pack alpha laughed as his beta turned red. He assured them they’d all soon be dead. Wolves ran amok as children laughed with glee. What a fun, festive Christmas Eve this turned out to be. \*Please note that this book is not intended to be read as a standalone, but rather as part of the Paranormals of Avynwood series.

For the last several years, Brayden felt like an outcast amongst his friends. Since the day he saw a man shift into a wolf, he knew he no longer belonged in their circle. They were immersed in the paranormal world while he was away at college, living the life of an ordinary human. One night while he was walking home, he saw a dog in need of help. Turns out, it wasn’t a dog at all. Kandra was a wolf shifter on the run. She’d fled an abusive relationship, running from a male she once thought she could trust. As a lone wolf, she was free, but she was also slowly dying. Pack life wasn’t something Kandra wanted, and she never thought she’d trust another male. Yet, she trusted Brayden. In him, she found the opportunity to join a new pack—shifters who would be there when she needed them. But the past came calling, and they would take back what was theirs. Kandra’s life was in danger and Brayden would do whatever it took to keep his mate safe, including asking a vampire to bite him. His new life was extraordinary—because she was in it. With his vampire given powers, Brayden was ready to fight for the one he loved. Now all he had to do was find her.
