Devour Me, Alpha

"I told you the forest had teeth. You should have listened."

Leah Hart is running for her life. Leaving behind a suffocating past in Chicago and a man who called his control "love," she seeks sanctuary in the rugged silence of the Oregon Cascades. She wanted a fresh start. She wanted peace.

Instead, she found him.

Kael is the Alpha of the Blackmoon pack-a massive, scarred king of a dying territory who rules with iron discipline and lethal secrets. From the moment he catches Leah's scent, his wolf screams one word: MINE.

Kael knows a human mate is a death sentence for his pack. He tries to scare her away, to be the monster she expects, but the fated bond won't be denied. When a rival pack leader from Kael's past realizes the Alpha has a weakness, Leah is no longer just a woman in hiding. She is a prize in a brutal war.

After a violent abduction drags Leah into the heart of a mountain stronghold, she must stop being the prey and start being the Luna she was born to be. She will have to trade her fear for fire, her silence for a howl, and her heart to the man who would burn the world to keep her safe.

In the shadows of Silverwood, blood will be spilled, marks will be claimed, and an ancient bond will be sealed in the heat of the night.

The Alpha is hungry. And he won't stop until he's devoured every part of her.
