After securing her career as a designer in Paris, Arlene Brooks allows herself one night of abandon with the lead singer of Lia Skye Lucia—her ultimate obsession. Warner Lorenzo is a rock god on the stage, secretly a runaway wolf haunted by a savage birthright. Fleeing his father’s tyranny, he chose fame over his pack, rejecting the brutal legacy that trailed him.
A single explosive encounter after a show brings them together. Arlene is completely mesmerized by the man behind the anthems, while Warner comes face-to-face with the woman fate has chosen for him. She’s human, with a bright, clean future ahead. He’s a rogue, desperate to escape his bloodline. Following a night of raw passion, Warner disappears, believing she’s safer if he remains nothing more than a scorching memory.
That one night redefines Arlene’s world. Five years after her encounter with Warner Lorenzo, she’s a single mother to twins. A quick search of his name reveals a blur of tabloids, women, and wild parties. She vows to protect her children by keeping their existence a secret, praying their paths will never cross again.
Fate, it seems, has a twisted sense of humor. They collide in the middle of a crowded airport, where Warner discovers a little boy and girl who bear an undeniable resemblance to his family—one with his own jade-green eyes, the other a perfect echo of the women in his lineage.
He is left reeling when the little girl proudly calls Arlene “Mommy.” Panicked, Arlene seizes her chance to escape as a swarm of fans descends on Warner. He might have found the will to let her go once, but everything has changed. He knows the truth now, and he can’t walk away, because the very power his children have inherited makes them a target for dangers she can’t possibly imagine.

The moment we step through the park entrance, both twins bolt toward Donald Duck with squeals of delight, wrapping their small arms around the character in enthusiastic hugs.


I notice several people attempting to snap photos of Nicholson, but Isabel and Kade quickly intervene, creating a protective barrier around us. Both Warner and I keep our sunglasses firmly in place as we join the queue for the children's first attraction. My phone buzzes insistently against my hip.


Matthew's name flashes on the screen along with a barrage of media links from our dinner last night. My stomach drops as I scroll through the headlines. They've already identified me, and the speculation is running wild about my termination for allegedly sleeping with client Warner Lorenzo. I suppress a groan and shove the device back into my pocket as we near the attraction's entrance.


"Something wrong?" Mr. Lorenzo inquires, his tone gentle but observant.
