Fated to the lone Alpha

A steamy paranormal shifter short story romance

After losing my husband in a mysterious fire, I needed a fresh start.
I thought Timber Hollow would bring me peace.
But its secrets are clawing their way into my life.

I traded city noise for mountain serenity, hoping the quiet would soothe my soul.
But the forests here don’t just whisper—they howl.

And then there’s Gareth Stone.
A gruff, no-nonsense fire chief with eyes like storm clouds and a past darker than the woods.
I didn’t come here looking for love.

But Gareth?

He stirs something in me I thought was long buried.
Still, nothing in Timber Hollow is what it seems.
There’s a dangerous magic lurking in the shadows.
A rogue fae with vengeance on her mind.

And me?

I’m starting to uncover powers I never knew I had.
Gareth wants to protect me.
I want to trust him.
But the fire that brought us together could tear us apart.

Now I have to choose:
Justice for the past, or a chance at love beneath the silver moon.
The secrets of Timber Hollow won’t stay hidden for long.

And when they come to light?
I might not survive the truth.
