Alpha Awakened

Hale, a fox shifter, hates everyone and everything—especially himself. He's an angry, bitter, mentally unstable drunk who blames himself for his mate's death. Not being able to tolerate being in the presence of female fox shifters, uncontrollable rage erupts when he meets Hope, and he's torn between killing her and kissing her.

Hope knows she has to have Hale the second he steps inside her shop. The fox inside her comes to life and demands to be claimed. Even though Hale is vulgar, volatile, and threatens her at every turn, she wants to ease his pain, bring joy back into his life, and make him hers.

Can Hope break through Hale's walls and awaken the alpha within, or will Hale finally scare her away for good?
