Bridged by Love — Nancy Corrigan

Follow his head, he breaks her heart. Follow his heart...he breaks his pack.

Royal-Kagan Shifter World, Book 5

From the moment he was born, Nic Kagan's future was sealed. He'll accept a mate, have kids, and eventually take over his father's role as pack alpha. There's just one problem.

Long ago, his heart settled on Riley, the pack's human doctor and honorary member. Except only half of him can have her. The other half--his wolf--won't give a weak non-shifter female a second sniff.

No one--human or shifter--has left a mark on Riley's soul like Nic. But with his father hospitalized, any hope things could work out between them is slipping away. Yet Riley understands something else about pack life. Power isn't always a physical gift; love is just as strong. What she and Nic have is worth fighting for.

With rival threats mounting, Nic realizes he can't simply turn his back on Riley. Though his wolf could tear his heart out for it, he must fight for what he wants before he loses his mate. His pack. Maybe even his sanity.

Warning: Contains a reluctant alpha with only one roadblock between his heart and the woman he loves--biology. And a woman who isn't giving up on him, even if it means risking her life to fool Mother Nature.
