The inheritance from his grandmother would be nice. After all, he was supposed to get that on his twenty-fifth birthday and that was three months ago. But his father, Alpha Chalmers of the Northern States has insisted he won't release the money until Aiden has completed a week long training camp. The youngest of six brothers and having suffered a hard upbringing, Aiden figures anything would be worth going through so he could be free of his father. It's only for a week. Ranger doesn't like people and he especially doesn't like his latest assignment - training a bunch of wannabe alphas for some goodness only knows reason. As the top assassin for the shifter council, he's starting to think either someone wants him dead, or he's being punished for a transgression he knows nothing about. But matters take an even stranger turn, when on the very first day of training, he scents his mate. Things were never going to be easy for Aiden and Ranger. If the training camp wasn't hard enough, a missing will, the full secret about Aiden's inheritance and the little matter of Ranger being hired to kill his mate by a council member all add to their problems. If Ranger can keep his mate alive for the week, then maybe they will have a chance at a long and happy future. But it's a big if. This book is a complete story of 26,700 words. The epilogue does provide hints for the next book, but each of the stories in this series can be read as standalone. Warning: M/M, true mate trope. Contains graphic intimate scenes and coarse language. less

Cam has always known who his fated mate was. Unfortunately, not even his beta wolf status made life any easier, living with the knowledge his alpha mate rejected him. His work with Ranger kept him busy, but now Ranger was mated to the sweet Aiden, finding things to do so his wolf wouldn't go hunting the man they both wanted was getting more difficult by the day. Levi was an assassin. He made no apology for who he was or how he lived. Yes, he knew he had a mate... moreCam has always known who his fated mate was.

Levi was an assassin. He made no apology for who he was or how he lived. Yes, he knew he had a mate. Yes, there were a lot of good reasons for claiming him. But the two reasons why he shouldn't, kept Levi away. When Ranger gets in touch and lets him know that things are changing on the council, and he's found the assassins a place to call home, Levi can't resist answering the call. Territory and power are everything to shifters and having all four assassins living in the Northern States pack brings problems from outside. In town, not all of the locals are as keen with their new Alpha either and yet, somehow, in the muddle, Levi and Cam must find a way to be together. Because sharing the same house, no matter how big it is, makes anything else unbearable. Warning: Normal warnings about this being a men loving men book apply. If this doesn't appeal, please don't buy this. less

But his father’s accident had changed him from a loving wolf-shifting provider into a paranoid and angry man and Kyle wore the bruises – often.

Newton considered himself fairly adaptable, but he had one rule he absolutely lived by - do not get involved with assassins. He could overlook the one mated to his only brother. He would even help the four assassins to gain their freedom from the Council. That fell under the 'favor to his brother' category. But socializing with them, being friends with them - that was not going to happen. Tron couldn't help his negative reputation... moreNewton considered himself fairly adaptable, but he had one rule he absolutely lived by - do not get involved with assassins. He could overlook the one mated to his only brother. He would even help the four assassins to gain their freedom from the Council. That fell under the 'favor to his brother' category. But socializing with them, being friends with them - that was not going to happen. Tron couldn't help his negative reputation. As the feared trainer for the ridiculous assassin program, he'd done his job, mourned the dead in private, and made sure the four remaining assassins could stay safe. He did one favor - just one tiny favor, and suddenly his world was upside down and turned inside out. Instincts aside, no one would've said this was meant to be an easy mating. But the Council weren't finished with the assassins yet, and what they gave away with one hand, they took back with another. Then there's the mysterious Master Kimble - wasn't he supposed to be dead? And is there anything that can change Newton's Laws? Newton's Laws is book 4 and the final book in the Northern States Pack series. It is best if you've read at least book 3 before reading this one to understand the context of some sub-plots. Also included in this book is a short story about Shadow and Marcus for my lovely readers who wanted to know how those two met. Intimate situations, graphic language and some violence is included. HEA guaranteed. Please store your ebook content responsibly. less
