Sofie Braun has never been more conflicted about her life.�As the drilling operations start, Sofie becomes more and more conflicted about what her work has led to. With her boss Luke Calambor showing no signs of slowing down operations or making compromises, Sofie must convince Ashton and his pack to leave their land or risk provoking corporate wrath. Ashton Sawyer won't give up what is his This has been his land for centuries and Ashton refuses to be the Alpha that lost the ancestral home. But when Sofie comes to him with the warning that Calambor refuses to back down, Ashton is determined to meet force with force. A little push is all it takes for hell to break loose Luke Calambor isn't a man who fights clean or a man who settles for half-measures. He'll do whatever it takes to get what he wants, even if it means innocent lives will be caught in the path of his greed. Sofie and Ashton must use everything at their disposal to stop Calambor and whatever plans he's set in motion before it's too late. EXCERPT Ashton�s blue eyes search her face, as if he�s looking for a sign there that will tell him what he wants to know and what Sofie clearly doesn�t want to share with him. It looks like he�s about to say something or call her out on her lie; but, Sofie reaches over to his face, tracing the line of prickly, dark-blonde hair along his jaw. The touch is electrifying, like the first time. Ashton cradles her face between his hands, pulling her close to him so that their lips are almost touching. �You�re wrong about one thing,� he whispers against her mouth. �I do have to worry about you. I can�t not. I care too much to let anything happen to you.� The sincerity in his words is reflected in his face before he kisses her softly and, as she responds, more insistently. His mouth on hers, and the taste of him drives her wild. It drives the thought of her dream out of her mind, and all she can think about is the two of them together�in his bed. All she can think about is how much she wants him, how much she needs him.
