Description
A bird trapped in a gilded cage. Back in the hands of her captors, Annabel Claremont's heart has never been more torn and broken. The burden of carrying a child that might not be hers combined with the lengths her father is willing to go to keep her complacent is becoming unbearable, and she only wants the one thing she can't have: Jackson.A wolf on a too-short leash. Jackson Montgomery has tasted true love, found his mate, and had it all stripped away from him in a matter of moments. To make matters worse, it's the sworn enemies of his family that keep her from him, and Jackson is running out of time and options to get Annabel back…Will they find their way back to each other?The stakes are higher than ever, and as both sides of the werewolf war begin to feel the heat, desperate moves will be made. The clans are out for blood, and it will only be a matter of days before Annabel and Jackson are torn away from each other - forever. Excerpt'let me just enjoy the moment a while longer," Annabelle pleaded. "I got married today, Mary. I'll never get this moment back again." Sighing, Mary moved away from her. "Can you get out of the dress on your own for I must leave? Some of us need our beauty sleep." "I'll be fine," Annabelle smiled at her. "Go!" Mary was reluctant, but eventually she left. Alone, Annabelle turned on her stereo and quietly played a medley of love songs. As she listened to them, she pretended she wasn't alone in her bedroom but actually at her dream wedding reception with Jackson. He was wearing a tuxedo with his hair neatly slicked back, he took her in his arms and they danced until dawn. Lost to her fantasy, Annabelle twirled and pivoted around her room until the sky outside began to turn grey and the first rays of sunlight trickled down upon the city.
