BLURB:
A GIFT BOUND BY LOVE
While Laura was attending the annual omega celebration, a ruthless
ogre attack destroyed her village and wiped out her family. Heartbroken,
lonely, and adrift, she was forced to rely on the kindness of the Black Ridge
wolf pack alpha for a home. And so were many others, including members of the
small Newton pack, and their handsome, strong alpha, Dedric. One brief
interlude was all it took for Laura to know she would choose him as her mate.
Alpha Dedric Newton couldn’t believe his good fortune. Beautiful
and powerful, Laura was the omega of his dreams. Worried he had so little to
offer, he insists she spend time with his small pack as they rebuild their
village and homes. Laura and Dedric’s time in Newton strengthens their bond
while evil works to undo all of Laura’s gifts, especially her legacy. After
finding the greatest love an alpha could dream of, Dedric will do anything and
everything to keep Laura safe from harm.
Excerpt:
The next day Laura found herself in
the passenger seat of a large SUV heading to Newton. Dedric was driving; Gabi
and Lily were in the back, along with two warriors, Jensgar and Drune, in the
third-row seats. Laura’s chosen mate held her hand as he drove, leading the
convoy forward and further away from the place she’d come to live, and where
she’d felt safe.
Since she woke this morning, she had
that same grip of fear in the pit of her stomach as she’d had when she’d
learned marauding ogres had destroyed her home and village. Dedric seemed to
sense her distress and held her hand tighter.
“Are you okay, sweetheart?”
She hated making him worry, but in
an effort to be truthful with her partner, Laura replied, “I was finally
getting used to living in Black Ridge after my home was taken from me, and now
I’m moving on to the pack that I hope to make my home. It’s a bit overwhelming.
I’ve moved more in the last six months than I have in my entire life.”
“I promise, I’ll make you happy and
you’ll grow to love Newton as much as I do.”
Laura appreciated the sentiment and
his effort, but mere words weren’t going to make the dread vanish. The last
thing she wanted to do was to ruin his homecoming, so she smiled at him and
squeezed his hand in reply. It would take a lot of work to clean and repair the
town, but getting Newton back on its feet meant a great deal to the man she
loved. “I’m looking forward to being in Newton, really. But there’s been so
many changes in the past few months, I hope you understand, this is a me
thing.”
“I understand. We’ll make it through
this together. I love you,” Dedric murmured, and she knew his heart was true;
she could see the love in his eyes.
“I love you, too,” she whispered
before kissing the top of the hand that was holding hers.
