I don't care what the Council has to say: They are just taking orders from The Officials, whoever they are. It's just another group of people who insist they know what's best for me, and I'm getting sick of it! So when I see an opportunity to put one of these Shifter men to the test, you bet damn well, I took it.

The people who raised me - the ones whom I loved, the ones who I lost. Were they even my real parents? Why are these shifter men so insistent on protecting me? Are they really doing it because they care about me, or are they just following orders from the officials? And it seems I can't take two steps without Mr. X showing up and putting butterflies in my stomach.

I don't know what to make of my life. Five Shifter men, all sworn to protect me but none of them telling me the truth. Their attention is flattering and their gazes light a fire in my belly. They tell me my scent is driving them wild, as if I can do anything to control that! Enough! I'm going to get answers from these Council men if it's the last thing I do. I'll use every tool at my disposal, even if I leave a trail of broken hearts behind me!

His eyes tell me exactly what he's thinking: Quit. You don't belong here. I grit my teeth and stand back up. Her smirk belies her true meaning: You're not one of us. I bite my tongue until I can taste blood. A school for Shifters...and me. I can feel their eyes on my body, lingering. And it doesn't help that I'm surrounded by these men who insist on protecting me. But if their attention just draws more danger, what can I do?

After everything I've been through, a girl just needs a break. Some time to decompress. I don't know if I can totally trust these Council men, but their attention has been...appreciated.

Nothing could have prepared me for a traitor. I thought I knew the world I was thrust into. I thought I could trust the actions of the men protecting me. I thought sharing an evening with Ren would let him open up to me. But I was wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Now what choice do I have? Can anyone blame me for what I'm about to do?

I have one goal this summer: hang with my besties for some much needed sun, sand, and relaxation while I put the final touches on my idyllic wedding. I didn't count on meeting a smart-mouthed, bad boy biker whose gaze burns hotter than a beach bonfire. I never planned to lose myself, body and soul, and question my entire future. Now I have to make a choice that's tearing me apart and could shatter the lives of the two men I love....
