He knew what she was the second she got out of the car. He had about a heartbeat to decide what to do about it, and he decided to do nothing at all.
Elias Halloway runs a failing mill, a pack that is one bad winter from nothing, and a town of nine hundred people who have no idea what lives on the mountain above them. When the woman from the valley drives up to go over his land, line by line, he needs her to find nothing, sign it off, and never come back.
Instead he recognizes her. Instantly, completely, and at the worst possible moment of his life.
Cora Larkin is good at her work because she is exact, and she is exact because she has spent thirty-one years making certain nobody looks at her too closely. She came up this mountain for five weeks of measuring in the cold. She did not come to be known, and she did not come to be wanted, and she has no idea yet that the thing she is about to find is older than both of them.
Because the ground this pack has held for a hundred years was taken - and Cora is the first person in a century standing in a position to prove it.
If she lets herself have him, every word she writes about this place is worthless, and a pack that has already lost everything else loses its home. If she writes the truth, they lose it anyway.
The larch is turning. The road closes with the first hard snow. And on the other side of the mountain there is a pack that has been waiting a hundred years for a Halloway to be asked a question he cannot answer.
Marked Ground is a slow-burn fated mates wolf shifter romance with a possessive, protective alpha, an outsider heroine with a secret of her own, forced proximity, small-town pack politics, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Book One of the Wolves of Thornrake.
