He was both blessed and cursed. She was both his fated mate...and his prison guard. 

 

Kaitriona Bylsma excels at her job—a guard at Eastward Prison. Her steady nerves and no-nonsense attitude have earned her a reputation for both cool objectivity and kick-ass capability among coworkers and inmates alike.

 

Until Chase Greysley shows up clad in orange. Her old crush not only makes her hot and flustered, but causes others to question her impartiality. 

 

Framed for a murder he didn’t commit, shifter Chase Greysley finds himself behind bars in a human prison. With nothing but time on his hands, he plots his revenge against the rogue wolf who stole his freedom. 

 

His focus takes a drastic turn when a blast from the past walks by his cell—an old school friend who’s only gotten hotter in the intervening years. The last thing Chase needs is a distraction, especially one clad in gray pants and sporting a high bun, a distraction his wolf wants to claim. 

 

Now Chase lives on a blade’s edge—on one side a deadly rogue on the loose, on the other a family he must protect. At the wicked tip of fate’s knife? His mate, the woman on the other side of his cell door. If he can’t prove his innocence, she may be outside both the reach of his fingers and his heart forever.
