Synopsis

Inhuman Strength, Weekly runs in the mountains, deeply held secrets, arranged marriages among royalty… These are all things Alexis Califan grew up with and loves—except the arranged marriages part. Faced with an unwanted arrangement with Leonidas Cherone, the son of the ailing pack Alpha, Alexis does the unexpected—she runs. But, running soon lands her in an unfamiliar and unforgiving place. Surrounded by desperate drunks and thugs that threaten her honor and her life, she finds it increasingly difficult to keep her true nature secret. To make matters worse, there is the local bounty hunter that keeps showing up at the most inconvenient times to “save her.” Yeah right, like she needs saving from a human, although, with his looks and alpha qualities, he is kind of growing on her. Kyle Frost survived multiple combat tours as a special operator. He’s survived countless run-ins with armed thugs. But, he’s not sure if he’ll survive this woman that keeps showing up when he’s doing his job, then being ungrateful when he saves her. Funny thing though, she has a quality he’s not seen in other women—a kind of sheer animal power and instinct hidden behind her delicate facade. Can Alexis keep her secret from the man she is growing to love? Or, will this frail human suffer at her near immortal hand? It only becomes harder to keep her secret when she angers a local thug boss and he vows revenge. And, although she knows that Leonidas is looking for her, she does not know that, if he cannot have her for himself, he plans on killing her.
