She married her enemy to save her pack. She never expected to fall for the man who let her father die. Veterinarian Briar Calloway has spent eleven years holding her dying wolf territory together with nothing but stubbornness and a grudge. When a rival pack starts buying up her land parcel by parcel, she has exactly one option left — a binding marriage to Knox Mercer, the cold, commanding alpha whose pack arrived two hours too late to save her father's life. Knox doesn't want a political marriage any more than she does. He's spent his whole life avoiding the mistake that got his own mother killed. But the treaty is the only thing standing between Briar's territory and total collapse — and the moment she walks into his house, he realizes the debt he owes her family is the least dangerous thing about her. Forced under one roof, bound by vows neither of them wanted, Briar and Knox discover a betrayer is feeding their enemies pack secrets from the inside — and the marriage built to buy peace might be the very thing that gets them both killed. Every shared meal, every guarded glance, every moment of forced closeness chips away at the walls they swore they'd never let down for each other. She doesn't know if she can forgive his name. He doesn't know if he can survive loving her and losing her the way his father lost everything. But as the threat closes in and the wedding meant to be only paper starts to feel unbearably real, they'll have to decide if trust is worth the risk — before the enemy inside their own walls decides for them. A slow-burn, emotionally charged grumpy alpha romance with forced proximity, enemies-to-lovers tension, and a found-family pack you'll want to visit again and again.
