Aliya Matsuoka meets "him" in her dreams - a regal yet unexpectedly shy man. But strangest of all, he always meets her in the forest, where their instant bond escalates into a sensual night beneath the stars.
In waking reality, a monstrous ex blurred Aliya's judgment on whom to trust. She won't even kiss most dates, let alone "get down and dirty in the leaves" with a gorgeous stranger.
When Aliya follows an uncontrollable urge to retrace her dream's steps, reality surpasses her wildest imagination; she's living amongst Lycans, shapeshifters who can morph into wolves at will.
Outspoken for his "untraditional values" that Lycan sexes should have equal rights, shy Alpha Noah Greenfield faces constant pushback from other Alphas who thrive on dominance. As Aliya and Noah's fated love transcends all bonds, Aliya unleashes her desires.
But diving into this paranormal fairytale isn't enough to erase Aliya's trauma; there's always a chance another monster could follow her home.

---------
Eden Cross is a Beta wolf in the Moorgrey Pack. With two different coloured eyes and a secret, she's always been a bit different but well respected and a good friend of most in the packlands. On her 20th birthday she is excited to find her mate as any she-wolf could be. The stories and lore of fated mates told by the ancestors make it all seem like such a fairytale. The love and bond you experience is like no other.
But that's not the case; not for Eden.
Rejected and shunned after a chaotic incident, she is sent off to Emberholde Academy, a place for out of control wolves and under the strict rule of Alpha Dante Ashvale of the Shadow Sun pack. He's ruthless and unforgiving, but turns out to be crucial to Eden's life and future, with a secret of his own.
A man dedicated to his pack, with no care for himself.
When these two souls collide in a raging blaze, will they rise from the ashes stronger, or stifle in never ending darkness?
