She's nearly forty, done with heartbreak, and definitely done with men. Until a blind date turns into a spy mission -- and a fake marriage with a dangerously irresistible werewolf.

In the small town of Havenwood, Zera, a fiercely independent pixie, single mom, and bartender, faces the harsh reality of rejection when her werewolf ex deserts her for his pack and a new flame.

Swearing off men, she relies on her half sister for support, determined to rebuild her life. But when she's talked into one last blind date, she vows to hate whoever shows up.

To her horror, it's Maverick -- a mysterious werewolf who's almost too perfect. Until the truth unravels: He's a spy, the date is a setup, and to stay alive, Zera's must pretend to be his wife.
