Now, at his father's funeral, Lennon learns inheriting the Harding legacy won't come without a price.

She’ll be the perfect addition to his collection.

I've been selected. One of forty Omegas from academies across the globe… a one in forty chance to be bonded into the royal pack. It has to be a mistake. The selection committee never would've chosen me. I don't even pay my own tuition. I'm a scholarship student from the bad side of town. I should know better than to hope, but after I meet the royal alphas, I can't help it. Kaz, Wolf, and Tai are everything I've ever wanted, and our bodies call to each other in ways we're powerless to control.

I had always thought Owen Whitfield fit the mold of the brainless jock perfectly. Group of idiot friends? Check. Vapid girlfriend? Check. Ego bigger than the moon? Check.

Little did I know that my act of revenge would come back to bite me in the ass. How was I supposed to know Owen would turn out to be the best partner in crime I could hope for?

I've tried my whole life to curb my feelings for Liam, who is not my cousin, even if our family is like, well, family. After he brought a girlfriend home for the holidays last year, I decided it was high time for my crush to finally die. And since we haven't run into each other at all since then, it's been easy. (If not altogether effective.) Even our family stopped trying to push us together. But then Liam walks into my office just before Christmas, and I find out he'll be working here as a consultant. Oh—and he got special permission from my boss to have me directly under him.
