Gwenith Oakthorpe is a younger omega hiding among humans after a cruel pack broke her and threw her away. She keeps her head down in Rowanthwaite Islekeld, works as a bookkeeper, and has learned never to trust a man who calls himself an Alpha. Then Valmund Oakshaw scents her-an older, powerful Alpha who swore off omegas after losing his last mate-and decides no one will ever hurt her again. He is protective, possessive, and determined to prove that his claim is safety, not ownership. But the pack that broke her wants her rare bloodline back, and they are coming to take it. An age-gap, hurt-comfort wolf shifter romance with a guaranteed HEA. No cliffhanger.
