Cuffed By the Wolf

Getting arrested was not part of the plan.

SASHA I came to Lupton, Georgia for one reason to find the thief who stole from me, destroyed my reputation, and left me holding the bag for a crime I didn’t commit.

I did not come here for a fistfight with two locals, flashing police lights, or a night in the Morgan County Jail. And I definitely didn’t come here for the grumpy alpha sheriff who arrested me.

When I overhear the sheriff’s office needs a secretary, I take the job on the spot. Staying in town means more time to find who ruined my life.

It has nothing to do with the insufferable, gorgeous alpha who signs my paychecks. Nothing at all. What Gavin doesn’t know: I’ve been hiding behind scent suppressants since the day I met him.

What I don’t know how to tell him: the stubborn, possessive, ridiculously grumpy sheriff I can’t stop thinking about isn’t just an alpha with a badge. He’s my fated mate.

GAVIN I don’t do trouble. I definitely don’t do trouble that talks back.

Then Sasha Walker showed up in my town, mouthed off in my interrogation room, and got herself thrown in one of my cells and something in me sat up and paid attention I had no business paying.

Hiring her was a mistake. I knew it the second I did it.

Now she’s in my office every day — mouth smart, driving me out of my mind and every ounce of control I’ve built since I lost the last woman I let myself want is cracking wide open.

She thinks she’s protecting herself by staying quiet.

She has no idea what I’ll become when I finally catch her real scent or what I’ll do to the man from her past who thinks he still has a claim on what’s mine. I’ll break every rule I’ve ever sworn by.

I’ll burn this whole town down for her.

Enemies to lovers. Alphahole boss. Grumpy/sunshine. Fated mates. Possessive hero. Small-town suspense. Workplace romance. And all the omegaverse tension you crave.
