Every wolf has a mate, and Calla knows when she’ll meet hers, down to the very second. The digits are glowing on her wrist—a countdown to the day when everything will change. After growing up in a tight-knit pack and idolizing her parents' mate bond, she knows exactly what her future relationship should be like. Loving, caring, full of laughter, and...easy.
Rafé, the brooding boy-turned-man-next-door, doesn't care about the countdown, and has been inseparable from Calla since the day he joined her pack. From harmless flirting to feral wolf attacks, they always come back to each other. He's protective and comforting...but he’s just a friend, her best friend, and definitely not her mate.
The countdown is clear.
As the numbers tick down, tensions rise, and Calla begins to question if she’ll ever have a choice when it comes to fate.
Follow the countdown.
Trust your wolf.
