Bound by duty. Burned by fate. Tatiana, the werewolf princess, was meant to be mated to the dragon crown prince. But as Theodore backs out of the treaty, it's his younger brother, Liam, who steps up — not for love, but for peace. Imposing a condition to never meet in 10 years, Tatiana thinks she can avenge her pride, and walk away from the alliance when the time comes. 10 years is a long time to mature, and get one's wits together. When she realizes that her fated mate — whom she had never forgotten from a fiery one-night stand — is actually Liam himself, she thinks she's been duped. Now queen in a court that wants her gone, navigating through the deceit, the second chance at love, and shifting loyalties isn't easy, but she is hell bent on seeing this through. He kept her scarf. She never forgot his touch. A love neither one of them saw coming.
