On her half‑sister’s wedding day, Fia’s world shatters when Hazel vanishes and her fated mate rejects her without mercy. With the Alpha groom ready to unleash war on her pack and her family desperate to save face, Fia makes a reckless choice — she takes Hazel’s place at the altar. But the marriage is a cruel setup: betrayed by her own family and accused of stealing another’s love, Fia becomes the perfect target of Alpha Cian Donlon’s fury. Humiliated and furious, he binds her to him not for love but for revenge, swearing to break her and make her pay. What neither expects is that hate can twist, burn, and evolve into something far more dangerous — and the thin line between hate and love might be destined to be crossed.
