Summary
Wolves and vampires don't mix. They're natural-born enemies and everyone knows that.
Shane knows wanting Ilya is a bad idea, even if he's never wanted anything more.
Ilya keeps pretending their encounters mean nothing, even when he suddenly can't sleep unless a warm puppy is cuddled right next to him.~~~~~~~
Shane Hollander came to the Enlightenment Program for one reason: to earn his place in Luxe, the elite city reserved for the strongest minds and bodies in the world.
He came to learn more discipline and emotional control, not to get distracted by a curly-haired vampire who makes him want to fall on his knees every time he's around.
Ilya Rozanov has lived long enough to know better than to fuck a werewolf. Especially such a rigid, stubborn one, who is begging to be taken apart every time he looks at Ilya.
With those sweet Bambi eyes and beautiful freckles.
Wanting Shane Hollander is a terrible idea. But when Shane gives him permission to enter his space—literally—something shifts in him.
Suddenly, winning the program isn't Ilya's goal anymore.

Summary
Someone's killing powerful Alphas in the Boston underworld in strange and untraceable ways, and it's giving Ilya, next head of the Rozanov family, a fucking headache.
On a different note, Shane - only son of the Hollander family, lowly Omega and known airhead - has just shown up on his doorstep, smelling of pre-heat and looking good enough to eat.
There's no way those two things are related, right?

Summary
Alpha Ilya has been named Chief of Winterhaven, after the death of his father, the former iron-fisted chief. This territory, in the frigid north of a fantastical medieval world, prepares for winter with low food stocks, a fear of Ilya's inexperience, and an unspoken terror of what is the early signs of a long and cruel winter ahead. Ilya feels the weight of his village's entire life on his shoulders and threatens to crush him.
Omega Shane is is a traveling apothecary, who came to Winterhaven seeking knowledge of herbs and the hopes of temporary shelter from the winter to come. He's a man who has wandered for most of his life, fleeing a past of abuse, violence, and rejection. All because he refuses to placate Alphas with half-truths and lies, and instead always speaks his mind, especially when the lives of others are on the line because of foolish pride.
Sparks ignite between Alpha and Omega, as Ilya realizes Shane's wisdom can protect and improve his village's outdated customs and save the lives of his people and Shane realizes that Ilya might be the only Alpha who will hear and respect him, body and mind.

Summary
Shane Hollander has spent years building a quiet, careful life for himself and his daughter. He just focuses on work, parenting, and keeping Yuki safe in a world that has not always been kind to omegas like himself. Everything changes the moment Yuki slips away from him at a crowded public event and is found in the arms of star hockey player Ilya Rozanov, who handles her with a gentleness that leaves Shane unexpectedly unsteady.
What should have been a brief, awkward encounter becomes something far more complicated. Yuki adores Ilya on sight, and Ilya keeps showing up, offering small kindnesses, sending messages that turn into late-night conversations, and slipping into Shane's life with a warmth that feels dangerously easy.
Shane, who promised himself he would never rely on a stranger, let alone an alpha, finds himself drawn to the one man he should not want.
