Joy Lynn FieldingThe line between order and chaos, heartbreak and happily ever after, has never been thinner⌠or more tempting to cross. Alpha shifter Matt Urban is always in control. He has to be. Keeping his territory, his pack, and himself tightly leashed is the only way to protect his precarious peace. So when a defiant, smart-mouthed lone wolf stumbles into his territory, Mattâs first instinct is to drive him out. His second instinct? Quite the opposite, unfortunately⌠Jesse Turner learned a long time ago that his safety depends on never belonging to anyone. No packs. No family. And definitely no bossy, overbearing, disturbingly hot alphas. Which means he should stay as far away from Matt as possible. Too bad doing what he should has suddenly lost all appeal⌠It’s not long before Matt will have to decide how far heâs willing to go to protect the mate he never wanted, and Jesse will need to decide if running from Matt is survival, or the biggest mistake of his life. Easy, right? Try impossible⌠|
