The Mating

Elise is almost nineteen when her father seals a political alliance by mating her to Kane, the amber-eyed Alpha of a pack she has never seen. The morning after, her childhood sweetheart Bryan can smell Kane on her and won't look at her. Kane is polite, powerful and mostly absent, and in her new home a beautiful wolf named Marla still acts as if Kane is hers. Hunters' traps keep turning up in the woods, and pack politics turn dangerous fast.
