Her men are all struggling, doing their best to start over and heal their open wounds, all of which will take time and a healthy dose of Harper's love and attention. But that’s not the only complication for the pack. Neo, a wolf shifter with a firecracker personality has arrived, and he could be the key to locating the man who’s desperate to rule the entire wolf shifter race. Neo’s appearance has caused strain within the pack, but as Harper spends time him, she begins to see another side to his personality — one that is hidden perfectly from everyone but her. In order to prevent a war, the Heir Wolf Alphas of each Cardinal Pack must come together and make an alliance, but there’s only one position per pack and many rival candidates. Fights will arise and only the worthy will climb the ranks to the top. Harper must do whatever it takes to claim her rightful position and protect her pack, even if it means she has to get a little messy. Harper may have succeeded in claiming her pack, but if she wants to bring her men back together and prove a point to her enemies, it's time for her to take the next step. It’s time for her to proclaim her pack.
