    Summary

    Jackie Taylor has always lived by the rules. Her life is measured in appearances and expectations. But when her parents invoke the final condition of her inheritance, marriage before thirty. She finds herself cornered.

    Lottie Matthews calls it a Boston marriage. Jackie calls it impossible. And Natalie Scatorccio, sharp and defiant, calls it a joke. Yet appearances are everything, and survival has a way of making strange partnerships necessary.

    What begins as an arrangement soon feels less like control and more like a test of it, and Jackie isn’t sure whether she’s negotiating her future or surrendering it.

    Or

    Jackie Taylor needs a wife before thirty. Natalie Scatorccio needs stability. But appearances can bind tighter than vows.

    Summary

    “Look,” Jackie tries again as she places her stack of cones on their relevant shelf like she has a thousand times before. She tries not to think about the cobweb she totally just felt brush against her hand, or the smell of Mari in her nose, so deep it almost burns. “Mari, did you know— I mean, have you ever had your heat before?”

    Probably better to cut right to the chase, right? Jackie sees Mari freeze out of the corner of her eye, and bites her bottom lip, because oh, right.

    Jackie is an alpha, and she’d convinced Mari to come here alone with her, and now Jackie’s asking her about heat, and this could look—

    “Like, not in a weird way,” she rushes out awkwardly, and then, clearing her throat, “Sorry, I just mean— not like that. Not like… Not like this.”

    OR:

    Mari's in pre-heat, and it's throwing the team off their game. Ever the altruist, Jackie pulls her aside to check in.

    Summary

    Jackie really wasn’t much different from other girls in her grade. She follows the latest fashion trends, follows up on the newest gossip, and even has a handsome boyfriend. So really, truly, Jackie wasn’t much different from the girls in her grade, at least on the surface. Jackie tries to ignore her big, massive problem that can’t seem to go away since it looms over her like a constant shadow and seemingly always finds a way to steadily crawl into her life and inconvenience her. Her inconvenience just so happens to emerge in the full moon's light. For most, the full moon isn’t much, but for Jackie, it’s the thing she plans her entire schedule around as well as dreads the most. Since, yeah, Jackie lied, she isn’t like most girls by a long shot. Ever since the summer of 1994, Jackie’s been hiding a colossal secret from everyone: she’s a werewolf.

    Summary

    Jackie Taylor died in 1996.

    She shouldn’t be here. Not now. Not in 2021.

    The world moved on without her. Her story ended in the snow, her name written into history as one of the lost. She was supposed to stay that way.

    Because the dead don’t come back.

    And yet—here she is.

    Summary

    Deep in the sublevels of the compound, Yelena keeps to herself—haunted by the aftermath of Omestrin, the shifting biology she never asked for, and the heat that threatens to unravel everything she’s fought to control. No one knows what she’s going through. No one can. Her designation, her instincts, the quiet little nest in the corner of her quarters—it’s all a secret she guards with white-knuckled pride and desperation.

    But secrets don’t hold up well when faced with kindness. Especially not the kind wrapped in a hoodie, holding muffins, and smelling like safety.

    Kate Bishop isn’t supposed to notice. She’s not supposed to linger at Yelena’s door, or smile at her like she means it, or look at her like she sees something more than a ticking time bomb in combat boots. She’s not supposed to feel like calm in the storm, or worse—like home.

    As Yelena’s heat intensifies and her control frays, she finds herself caught in the echo chamber of everything she was trained to suppress: need, instinct, vulnerability—and the terrifying possibility that maybe, just maybe, she doesn’t want to be alone anymore.
