Marked Forever: A Mating Bite Paranormal Wolf Pack Romance

by Melissa Drake

She was his prisoner. Now she's his everything.

When Sorrel crosses into forbidden territory during a desperate hunt, she never expects to be captured by the most ruthless Alpha in the Northlands. But the moment their eyes meet, everything changes. Rodrik Ironfang's wolf recognizes her as his fated mate—the one thing the hardened warrior swore he'd never claim.

Sorrel remembers nothing of her past. Three years ago, she woke beside a river with no memory and ancient runes burned into her skin. She's survived alone ever since, answering to no one. But now she's trapped by an Alpha whose touch ignites fire in her veins, whose mark on her throat promises forever, and whose enemies will stop at nothing to tear them apart.

Because Sorrel isn't just a wanderer with no past. She's the runaway bride of a rival Alpha—a cruel wolf who believes she still belongs to him. When her memories return, revealing the brutal truth of what she fled, she must choose between the freedom she fought for and the mate her soul recognizes.

Rodrik will burn the world before he lets anyone take her. But when ancient laws collide with a bond that defies them all, their love becomes the spark that could ignite a war between packs. With enemies closing in and her past demanding she return, Sorrel must run again, or stand and fight for the Alpha who's marked her heart as permanently as he's marked her skin.

In a world where wolves rule and fate decides, their love is the one thing no law can break.

One-click now for a scorching paranormal romance featuring a fierce heroine who bows to no one, an Alpha who's finally met his match, and a fated mate bond hot enough to melt winter itself. Perfect for fans of possessive heroes, found family, and happily-ever-afters worth fighting for.
