Book Description
I want nothing more than to escape my destiny. Being alpha born means walking a path that's already been laid out for me, with a mate I don't get to choose. On a Lycan's 21st birthday, we are fated to find our true mate. Only, I don't want one, I'm not ready yet. I want to travel and see the world, but I can't do that either. When our world comes under attack from a foe we thought long vanquished, everything I thought I knew gets flipped upside down. With nowhere to turn after my mate rejects me, feeling suffocated by my own skin, I leave my pack to try and find myself... but get found instead. While this book is part of The Seven Realms saga and does contain some tiny spoilers to the Shadow Walkers Saga, it can be read without having to have read any of the other books in the Seven Realms world.

Pages : 432
Book Description
The Alpha, successor to the Northwood pack, was consumed with pride and prioritized power and bloodline above all else. When destiny provided him with the humble Luna as his mate, he sneered. This callous rejection shook the pack, and after five days, the tremors turned into a devastating avalanche. A neighboring pack, detecting vulnerability, invaded, destroying their land and permanently losing his loved ones, including his spurned mate. Darkness claimed him. But when he awoke, a sliver of sunshine revealed the same day - the day he heartlessly abandoned his mate. Fear was reflected in her eyes as she fled once more. Was this a cruel joke from fate, an opportunity to right his wrongs? Or was he doomed to repeat this nightmare, forever watching his pack collapse and his mate die? Kai, burdened by his prior mistakes, realized that arrogance would not help him this time. This chance, this glimmer of hope, was his chance to repair the broken relationship and safeguard those he had so carelessly failed.

"* Chasing Alpha is the definitive insider s history of Britain s financial services sector, from the early days of New Labour to the present day. At the heart of the action is the revival of the City s institutions in the mid-nineties. Augar uses his peerless connections with the people and firms that made it happen to give a compelling narrative of how the City s golden generation turned London round.

Northern Rock gave the lie to this claim. Far from heralding the eclipse of finance capital, Augar will show how the City stands poised to emerge from the credit crunch stronger than ever.

Her parents always loved Leona more than her as she had red hair and green eyes and freckles, while Leona was the pretty one with blond hair, blue eyes and perfect skin.
