However, when a missing Eastern princess claims sanctuary, Alaric learns his whole life was a shocking lie. For this bold, lusty she-wolf is his true fated mate and happiness beckons…if he can keep her safe.

King Alaric offers far more than refuge; the handsome and brooding alpha crowns her queen and teaches her unimaginable pleasures. Yet once they begin a royal tour of Wales, new threats and old betrayals are revealed. For a powerful enemy is coming, one that could destroy their love and end their reign forever…
