All I wanted was the minibar. Instead, I got a mate and a magical meltdown. I only planned to visit my estranged, slightly off-her-rockers grandmother at her inn and maybe find a little closure. Instead, I get blown up, turned into a werewolf (excuse me, shifter), and found out I’m at the center of a prophecy that might doom the supernatural world. No pressure. Oh, and I apparently have a mate. Cade Westin, the dangerously hot alpha with a death stare and a talent for destruction. He says he’s bound to protect me, but I’m not sure even he can stop what’s coming.

Something’s not right. My brother is broody, his match isn’t acting crazy, Quin is missing, and the dragons are moping. On top of that, the shifter community is leaderless, the witches are fragmented, and the hybrids are about to be attacked. When I receive a letter from an unusual source, I discover someone has activated an ancient curse that could bring down the entire coalition. To save the people I love, I need to break the curse, gain the hybrids' trust, learn my magic, and eliminate the Bellicose leadership.
