Book excerpt: Amari Winters (18) had been kept hidden away from the world, training to be the next Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. On her 18th birthday, her father, Alpha Charles Winters makes the sudden announcement she is finally free and she would be attending a birthday party that evening thrown in her honor. He also mentions their allies, the Artemis Pack were invited. While getting ready to go outside for the first time, Amari realizes that her mate is near and confesses to her older sister, Camilla. Camilla was jealous of Amari and hatched a plan to steal Amari's mate. Amari runs into her mate, Alpha Alexander Beaumont (24) and confesses her love, but is rejected. Alpha Beaumont reveals he is mated to none other than her sister, Camilla. Distraught, Amari makes threats against Camilla. An hour later, Amari is being charged with hiring someone to kill and rape her sister. Amari pleads her innocence to her mate, but he doesn't believe her and she is dragged back to his castle to be tortured for her "crimes." Will Alpha Beaumont eventually acknowledge that Amari is his true mate? And will Amari ever accept his forgiveness?
