Willa James woke up to hell on earth—handcuffed to the bed of her childhood home while her high school sweetheart and soon-to-be 'ex-husband' torches the place their pack once dreamed of growing old in. With flames licking the walls and smoke stealing her breath, Willa knew death was coming for an unmated Omega like her. Only it didn't. She was pulled from the flames by a team of Alpha firefighters, their scents the last thing she remembered before slipping into unconsciousness. By the time she woke, they were gone. No names. No chance to say thank you. Just burned memories, a long recovery, and a justice system that refused to believe her ex and his pack had set the blaze.



Two years later, divorced, packless, and done with the city that never once protected her, Willa returns to the only thing she still owns—her late grandfather's rundown ranch, Cactus Rose. She expects dust, disrepair, and loneliness. What she finds instead? Four rugged cowboys who've not only kept the ranch alive in her absence—but are somehow raising a baby together, without an Omega in sight. And fate's got one more twist in store: They're the very Alphas who saved her life. Can one scarred Omega and four cowboy Alphas turn second chances into something real? Or will the weight of their pasts—and the heat of what simmers between them—burn everything down for good?
