Everyone speaks of the monsters that live in the forbidden forest. Even the huntsmen of the village refuse to linger among the trees. But when my grandmother falls ill, I must travel into the woods, never imagining that my magic—and my scent—would draw trouble.

A wolf emerges from the brush and pins me to the ground. But instead of harming me, he transforms into the most gorgeous man I’ve ever seen.

Marrik. He says I belong to him. That I’m destined to be his mate. But I can’t leave my family and everything I’ve known to be with a monster, no matter how his touch makes my body burn.

But he’s not the only wolf in the forbidden forest.

And someone else is on the trail of my scent. Someone wicked. So I make a bargain with Marrik: In exchange for protection, I will surrender to him as if he is my husband.

Temporarily.

Yet once my time in the forest is up, can I really leave my wolf behind?
