Midnight Orchid
Ioannis Holland never expected her life to change during a routine sketching session in the moonlit forest. As the Alpha's daughter of the Eternal Eclipse Pack, she's always preferred her art to pack politics, until a political marriage arrangement threatens everything she holds dear.
When Nickolas Harvey, heir to the Storm Striders Pack, arrives for their arranged courtship, Ioannis braces for another arrogant Alpha who sees her only as a political asset. Instead, she discovers a man who values her artistic passion and challenges her assumptions about duty versus desire.
However, their growing connection attracts the attention of dangerous individuals. Violeta Carberry's jealous schemes pale beside the greater threat emerging from the shadows, Forest Mountain Pack's brutal campaign to reshape the werewolf world through conquest and elimination of traditional bloodlines.
As assassination attempts escalate and pack alliances crumble, Ioannis must embrace powers she never knew she possessed. The ancient magic flowing through her bloodline and the strength of her bond with Nickolas become their only weapons against enemies who seek to destroy everything their people have built.
When Forest Mountain's forces mass at their borders, threatening the very ceremony that should mark her coming of age, Ioannis faces an impossible choice: flee to safety or stand and fight for a future where love and duty can coexist.
In a world where midnight orchids bloom only under the harshest conditions, sometimes the most beautiful connections require the greatest courage to defend.
Can Ioannis and Nickolas forge an alliance strong enough to protect both their packs, or will Forest Mountain's vision of a new order destroy the bonds that make their world worth saving?
