There's no place like Haven Point for the holidays, where the snow conspires to bring two wary hearts together for a Christmas to remember It's been two rough years since Andrea Montgomery lost her husband, and all she wants is for her children to enjoy their first Christmas in Haven Point. But then Andie's friend asks a favor to keep an eye on her brother, Sheriff Marshall Bailey, who's recovering from a hit and run.
Andie will do anything for Wyn, even park her own misgivings to check on her grouchy, wounded bear of a brother. Marshall hates feeling defenseless and resents the protective impulses that Andie brings out in him. But when a blizzard forces them together for the holidays, something in Marshall begins to thaw.
Andie's gentle nature is a salve, and her kids' excitement for the holidays makes him forget why he never wanted a family. If only he and Andie can admit what they really want each other their Christmas wishes might come true after all.
The pact is broken. The human world that Alex once belonged to is no longer safe. From every direction, lycans from other packs are arriving, forming an army that will hopefully be ready to fight Valkos and his werewolves. Assuming, of course, that they can stop fighting among themselves first. And that Alex can somehow find a way to lead them. Before she can do that, though, she must harness the new magic that's awakened in her-magic that took her grandfather years to master. She has weeks to master it. Days, maybe. It doesn't help that she's never felt more alone, either, with her family on the other side of the world for their own safety, and Kael on his own mysterious trip up north. Then Kael comes back. Only he isn't the same. And he isn't alone. He's brought members of the most ancient, powerful werewolf pack in existence-the only pack, rumor has it, that Valkos has ever feared. Aligning with these particular wolves is a desperate and possibly dangerous move, but a necessary one, almost everyone agrees. Desperate times, desperate measures. It makes sense. But still, Alex isn't so sure. Because if she's learned anything these past months, it's that things are not always what they seem-and power always comes with a cost. And this time the price may be more than she can pay.

If she goes to the hospital, she’ll lose custody of her baby—maybe even go to prison. But the alternative is unthinkable.As the weeks unfold, Lexie finds herself caring for her fragile newborn niece while her carefully ordered life is collapsing around her. She’s in danger of losing her job, and her fiancé only has so much patience for Annie’s drama. In court-ordered rehab, Annie attempts to halt her downward spiral by confronting long-buried secrets from the sisters’ childhoods, ghosts that Lexie doesn’t want to face. But will the journey heal Annie, or lead her down a darker path?Both candid and compassionate, Before I Let You Go explores a hotly divisive topic and asks how far the ties of family love can be stretched before they finally break.

Alexandra is having a hard enough time being human, dealing with the unexpected death of her father and a family that's slowly unraveling in the wake of that death. So she really, really didn't need a werewolf attempting to kill her on top of everything else. But life just sucks sometimes, apparently. Because that's what happens: a vicious werewolf attack leaves Alex infected, confused, and suddenly surrounded by strangers who all claim they want to help her. Now, all she has to do is decide who to trust. Which would be a lot easier if one of those people trying to earn her trust wasn't Kael, a boy who manages to be arrogant, infuriating, and entirely-too-hot-for-his-own-good, all at once-and who also might know more about herself than she does. Although, it turns out, that isn't saying much. Because her whole life has been a lie. But now the dangerous truth is surfacing, and Alex suddenly finds herself a would-be pawn in the center of an ancient war between wolves and monsters. A war that will force her to make an impossible choice, thanks to the magic tied to her bloodline. Magic that could protect the entire human world . . . or leave it to the mercy of the monsters.
