Instead of having her heats and looking for her own alphas, she is defective. Her body gives her pain and she wants nothing to do with the thought of a sexual liaison with anyone.Her sister follows her father’s footsteps and keeps her on their property and running the bed and breakfast which is a boring existence for Olivia until her heat is due and her rule against taking reservations during that time is broken by her greedy sibling. There is an emergency and they are going to be hosting a guest.No one said the guest would be an alpha.What follows is a meeting, a realization and a rescue that changes not only Olivia’s life, but that of her pride as well.Argus is just going to a family wedding rehearsal when he begins hearing the phrase defective omega. He has researched a lot of omegas and there is no such thing as a defective one. When he realizes that these words are describing the dainty little woman who helped his panthers get settled, he has a quick discussion with his pridemates and they head off to rescue the omega in question. With any luck, she will choose them. If not, they will have to charm her. Either way, Olivia is theirs.

    My entire existence is one of mere survival within a pack that sees me as worthless. The alpha is ruthless, but he hasn't killed me yet. Small mercies, right? I've never known kindness, so what do I do when four guys show up with smiles and soft touches? Hide... for all of five minutes.They're kind of insistent on getting to know me, and everything in me rebels at the thought of running from them. You see, there's this pull. A connection that snapped into place when we made eye contact. They're apparently my freaking mates. All four of them!Krix, the unappointed leader.Cashel, the jokester.Denahi, the protector.Mavrin, the peacemaker.I've never heard of someone having four mates, but I don't want to deny myself this one good thing when all I've ever had was misery. I'm a shiftless wolf, so I wasn't supposed to have a mate at all!My old pack isn't having it, though. The alpha doesn't want to release me, and the she-wolves are all in a tizzy over my sudden popularity with the male gender. Too bad because I refuse to stay when I've been given the answer to my prayers. The Mother of all must have finally opened her ears to me. She didn't make it easy, though. There are a few trials and tribulations headed our way.Oh, and there's also this thing about a prophecy...
