Maisie has been in love with Cooper for years.

Not that she’s ever told him.

She didn’t say it when they were kids growing up in Thornapple Valley, and she hasn’t said it now that they’re adults.

Maisie is a rabbit shifter. She’s small, skittish, and a childhood trauma haunts her. She still hears those howls in the dark, flinches at growls, gets lost in the memory of a cold winter night when she was surrounded by vicious wolf shifters.

But not all wolves are monsters. Cooper, a wolf shifter himself, was the one who saved her that night.

Gentle, steady, kind—he’s always made her feel safe. Even so, Maisie’s fear runs deep, tangled in the instinct that says prey and predator don’t belong together. Even when her heart insists otherwise.

But she’s done running. If she wants her happily ever after, she has to fight for it. First, she must overcome her fear. Then she can finally tell Cooper the truth she’s kept buried for far too long.
