About the Book

Natalya Stravinsky is about to face her greatest challenge yet…

For the past five years, Natalya Stravinsky has dreamed of two things: to rejoin the South Toms River werewolf pack and to be reunited with Thorn Grantham. Fate may have brought the pack back into her life, but unless she journeys to Russia to save Thorn, the love she’s found may be lost again. For a stubborn werewolf like Natalya, no distance is too far, no magic spell too complex to master, because one way or another she will find a way to have everything she has ever wanted.

Praise
"COMPELLED is another solid installment of the Coveted series. I enjoyed seeing Natalya’s growth from where she started as a ‘exile’ of sorts at the beginning of the series to alpha female of the South Toms River pack."

SnoopyDoo's Reviews
I’m a huge fan of characters growing throughout the books and she has come a long way. I read Compelled from start to finish in one sitting it was impossible to put down because I had to know if she was going to save Thorn. If you’re a fan of Urban Fantasy and love werewolves this is a must read the characters are great and the story is beautifully done."

Prologue

Years of suffering and solitude can change in an instant. For me, everything changed on a wintry New Year’s Eve night. As the new year’s sun rose, I wasn’t Natalya Stravinsky anymore, the ostracized werewolf from the South Toms River Pack.
I was something much more: I was the pack’s alpha female. Such a thing weighed heavily on my shoulders as I drove home with my new husband, Thorn, and struck me again the next morning when I woke up with my beloved at my side. The season would change soon, and with it, the snow would melt, yet I’d still be the same on the inside.

Or was I? Thorn didn’t make me feel that way. Nestled side by side in our new home together, we held each other all night. Every now and then, I reached out to touch his golden hair. He’d snore, not so much as twitching while I took him in my arms. After experiencing the fight of my life last night, I should’ve slept like a hibernating bear. Yet, I was restless, burdened.
I drew my nose to his chest and inhaled. His wonderful scent whispered poetry to my soul, and any pain I had wilted away. Here was my best friend, all mine, until he succumbed to what was bleeding his life away. As to when he would die, I didn’t know. All I knew was that Thorn didn’t have decades, or maybe even years left. With his arms wrapped around me and mine over his shoulders, no one could take him away from me—for now.

I held onto that. I’d waited this long for him.

I will covet the time we have together until the very end.
