Harmony Raines - 2015
Like the time he chased his cousin up into the mountains and nearly caused her death, all for the chance of power in the otherwise lawless town of Wolf Valley. But his actions only proved one thing, he would never be alpha material. He doubts he will ever be fit for anything since he ended up stuck in the body of his wolf for far too long. A wolf who has now abandoned him. One woman saved him; she coaxed the man out, bringing him back from the brink of insanity.

All he has to hold onto is the memory of her face, a face he paints over and over again, a face he may never set eyes on again. Nadine is a fraud. She spends her life helping other shifters control their beast, when she has no clue how to control her own. It's there inside her, somewhere, she can feel it. But she has never been able to tell what she is, let alone change into the creature. It's part of why she turned her back on her mate. After nursing him back to health, she should have stayed with him. However, she feared it would only add to his mental confusion. With all the drugs he was on, she doesn't know if he even remembers her. It's better if he doesn't. When she finds out he is holding an art exhibition, she waits across the street to catch a glimpse of him. When he doesn't show up for the opening, she cannot resist taking a risk. One quick look at his paintings. What she sees stuns her. He knows who she is, and what she is to him. Events quickly escalate, and Nadine is thrown into danger.
