different places. Books you gotten in the mail, brought from a store, borrowed
from the library, received to write a review, or they can be
in eBook form. Here's a link to see how it all started.

Seeking
revenge, Pride is headed back to the compound where she was once nearly broken
to the will of an evil master. She’ll stop at nothing to free the enslaved
wolves still caged in the estate’s underground prison. Knowing there is only one
way back inside the fortified mansion, Pride allows herself to be captured.
Armed with a plan, she finds herself back in her cage but when things begin to unravel, she once again finds herself at the mercy of her former master. This time, however, she knows she has two wolves on her side, Logan and Stone—powerful alphas who will both fight to the death to free her.
Except the compound hides secrets that threaten both her heart and her identity and when bonds are tested and bloodlines are revealed, Pride realizes if she completes her mission she’ll be releasing her pack into a world where no one, least of all Pride, is safe.
