He had his chance. He blew it, and I’m out of here.

​

Flora

I’m at the bottom of the pack. I’m female, I have no family left, and everywhere a shifter is supposed to be hard and tight, I’m soft and round. There’s one bright spot in my days—Alec Cameron.

​

He’s hard in every way—so cool, he’s ice cold—but once in a while, he gives me a nod, and we sneak off to the woods. He’s not cold then. Not at all.

​

I dreamed that Fate would make it official, but after so many years, I’ve given up hope. Then, at a pack run, heat strikes. Alec Cameron is my mate.

​

In front of everyone, he turns his back on me.

​

I didn’t know how cold he could be, but I do now, and I’ve got a choice to make. Do I hang around and deal with the laughter and casual cruelty like I always do? Or do I take my new wolf, follow our instincts, and forge a new path of our own? 

​

Alec

This pack is falling apart. Literally. I spend my days patching together buildings that are inches from sliding down the mountain. In my free time, I’m forced to compete with the other two contenders for heir to the Salt Mountain alpha, the world’s worst job.

​

I’m constantly holding everything together, and until the night of the last full moon run, there was at least one bright spot in my days.

​

But then Flora Ritchie goes into heat at the worst possible time and place, and in all the chaos and consternation, I lose my grip.

​

I take my eye off the ball, and in a second, my mate is gone.

​

His Curvy Rejected Mate is the fourth novel in The Five Packs series, but it can be read as a standalone. No cheating. HEA guaranteed. Intended for adult readers only.
