October 31st, 2025

​

Carter Wilkes believed in true mates—until a lifetime of ridicule and abuse shattered that dream, leaving him with a broken body and the certainty that no one could ever want a damaged wolf.

​

Rey Featherstone has waited his whole life for the mate fate promised. He never imagined his first mistake would almost drive that mate away. Now, he’ll do anything to prove to Carter that he is worthy of love, safety, and a forever he thought was lost.

​

As Carter finds his voice and strength in Rey’s hometown, a shadow from his past refuses to let go. His abusive ex is back, and this time, he’s not just out for control—he’s out for blood. Fate forges true-mate bonds. But only by fighting for their lives can they prove it’s strong enough to last.
