What do you do when all of your hopes and dreams fail to come true?
Find your mate, they said. It's the only way to have your happily ever after, they warned.
For my sake, I hope they're wrong.
I murdered my Luna-given mate, and our deity will never forgive me for that. I can't escape the bitter truth, even if my brother is one of her Guardians assigned to protect the Wolves of Cold Creek.
Oh boy, and when he finds out what I've done...
While I consider the consequences, fate seems to cackle in the corner as my situation gets even more complicated...
I'm pregnant.
Now, I'll have a constant reminder of my bloody sin.
To make matters worse, my brother is getting married and expects me to travel with a small child all the way to the Tala pack for the ceremony. And the icing on the cake? He sent a babysitter to escort us! Like I'm not a capable wolf shifter.
But when the scorching-hot bodyguard arrives, I want to drop to my knees and beg him to shelter me from the memories that haunt my nightmares, and ask him to show me how he overcame the loss of his own mate. Especially when men in uniform appear, threatening to take my son, while the secrets my former mate attempted to hide drag me into his darkened world.
Can I protect my pup and save my soul from eternal damnation?
Lily's Tail is a steamy, 18+, dual-POV standalone within a series, ending in a happy for now, and no cliffhanger.
