Hidden Mate

Mystic River Shifters, Book 8

By: Delta James

Narrated by: JT Farrell

A Small Town, Opposites Attract Fated Mate, Shifter Romance

She’s been a ghost in the shadows. He just wants to be left alone. But fate has other plans.

Nora Blake is an assassin, one of the best. Known only as the Ghost, she’s spent years eliminating high-value targets without hesitation. But when she refuses to kill her latest mark, she becomes the hunted. The Shadow League never tolerates disobedience, and now they’ve sent another assassin to erase her as an example.

Erik “Hutch” Hutchinson walked away from war, trading a life of violence for the quiet of Mystic River. Owning the Northern Lights Bakery should have been simple, no battles, no bloodshed. But the moment he steps in to save Nora from an attack, he realizes two things: she’s in grave danger, and she’s his fated mate.

The connection between them is undeniable, an intoxicating pull that neither of them can resist. But Nora isn’t the type to put down roots, and Hutch has no desire to be dragged back into the chaos of a world he left behind.

Yet, with the Shadow League closing in, staying apart isn’t an option. As enemies rise and flames of destruction threaten everything they hold dear, Hutch and Nora must fight, not just for survival, but for a love that defies fate itself.

Welcome to Mystic River, Alaska, where danger lurks, fated mates burn hot, and love is the deadliest risk of all.
