Potion-making? Nailed it. Avoiding minor explosions? Mostly. But keeping my life balanced is a whole different story, especially now that I'm forced to work with my ex-boyfriend, Jasper Blackwood-the wizard whose charm is as potent as his magic. And let me tell you, that's saying something.

Screaming Woods, where the monsters dwell . . . and love goes to die. Or at least it feels that way. Because finding love isn't easy when you're green. Thanks to a mad scientist and his potion spiked punch, I'm a lovely shade of chartreuse and my scary reputation for being obsessed with sparkly shoes precedes me. I'd given up on love until my dark knight literally rode in on a big, black horse. The spark was instantly there, the only thing missing—his head.

Omegas are meant to follow the rules. To choose the right Pack. To keep the balance. I did the opposite. I don't want them. They don't want me. I'm only using them to get to the Alpha I can't live without. He might not be my scent match, but he's the only Alpha I trust. The only one who truly knows me. But something unexpected happens . . . the Pack decides to help me. At first, it's just survival. A way to get what we all want. Me long gone and their life back to the way it was. But somewhere along the way, emotions tangle, lines blur, and maybe, just maybe . . . I don't want to leave.

Mr. Hardwick will deal with his new assistant as he sees fit. She wasn't his to begin with, but knowing she wasn't in his reach had been too much.

A hint of attraction is all he needed to claim what had been on his mind from the moment she called out his name and took away his pain.

She was given to me as a gift. I was to keep her safe, protect her. An old friend called in a big favor, and now I have this innocent young woman in my home. Scared, fragile . . . tempting.

A place where old enemies have resurfaced. He's unmovable. Stone by name. Stone by nature.

I can't deny that the ranchers are gorgeous, and Lake is unlike any man I've ever met.
