Start from Chapter 1About this novel
When Jasmine’s fated mate Elliot rejects her for the Lycan Chairman’s daughter, she is left broken, humiliated and alone. To make matters worse, her father gets arrested for embezzlement, and Jasmine needs to raise ten million to release him.
Desperate to save her father from a wrongful conviction, Jasmine takes the only job she can find—tutoring the bratty daughter of a rich werewolf family.
But she never expected her employer to be the Lycan chairman himself: Gareth Laken. He is ruthless, dominant… and her ex-mate’s future father-in-law.
Gareth thinks she’s a threat. A bitter ex-girlfriend out for revenge, waiting to harm his own daughter. But the more he watches her, the more he sees a woman refusing to be shattered by the world that betrayed her. A woman he can’t stop wanting, despite the huge age difference.
Now, Jasmine is caught between two powerful men—one who destroyed her, and one who might destroy everything she has left to protect.
Excerpt
“You’re playing a dangerous game,” Gareth said, voice low, his towering frame just inches from mine.
“I didn’t come here to play,” I shot back, even as my heart pounded. “But you should be asking Elliot why he keeps showing up at my door. I’m not the one chasing ghosts.”
His eyes darkened, his gaze dropping to my lips. “He’s not the only one haunted by you.”
I froze.
I should have walked away.
Instead, I whispered, “Then why do you look at me like you want to hate me and kiss me at the same time?”
He didn’t answer.
But his silence spoke louder than any lie.
