Devon
Devon was finally free. Ten years behind bars and his first order of business was to get out of the game, for good. Finding his mate on his first full night out was fate’s gift to him and he refused to let her slip through his fingers. But, sometimes, despite all good intention, trouble found a way…
Keisha Calhoun worked hard and kept her head down. Daughter of a well-known street hustler, she promised herself she would never live that lifestyle. Fate was funny that way though, because out of her past walked a man who represented everything she fought to leave behind.
Devon’s irreverent charm combined with his wolf’s dominance made him a difficult man for Keisha to resist. But secrets from their shared past threatened the future they wanted to build together.
Declan
Amber Bennett carried her family on her back. Every dime she made went to care for the household her father’s death had left behind. Even with all her sacrifices her mother was asking one more of her. Another arranged marriage, another piece of her soul given to keep their family afloat. Amber wants something just for herself…a mate, not a marriage. But the cost of going against her family could cost her everything.
Losing was not an option for Declan Edwards. Hustling and grinding had been his default mode while his big brother was in prison, getting to the money, his life’s purpose. But now that his brother was home, and Declan had risen to the highest position in shifter society…he was ready to settle down. Except, the mate his wolf has chosen was promised to someone else. He could be risking the council position to have her, but the beast within him has always gone after what it wanted…no matter the cost.
