A farm in crisis, a café in the making, and a love they never saw coming... Maisie: Returning to Starlight Bay wasn’t part of my plan. But after catching my ex in the worst way possible, I had no choice but to pack up my broken heart and head back to the only place that’s ever felt like home.

I’m Jade O’Hara Raines, and I ran from my fated mate. Not because I wanted to, but because I had to… I was born to an unruly pack known for having frequent run-ins with the law.

DELANEY: I had one rule: never hook up with my brother’s best friend.

The one thing you can’t buy is love… Cord: I lost a gambling wager, and now I have a debt to pay to my business rival.
