Mate Market — Aimee Easterling

A mating of convenience even a lone wolf can't refuse.I'm Wren, a shifter without a pack in a world where unclaimed females are considered property. Luckily, friendly ghosts keep me one step ahead of greedy alphas while also helping me free other women before they're sold to the highest bidder.Then a battle-scarred alpha who can banish ghosts with a single touch rips into my carefully controlled world. Locke offers me a deal he thinks I can't refuse: become his mate in name only, and he'll fight by my side to free lone females.I try to refuse. I should refuse. But when one of my ghosts becomes trapped in Locke's territory and the next mate market looms, I realize I can't win this battle alone.I need the help of someone living—even if it means binding myself to an alpha like the one who turned my friends into ghosts.Mate Market is the first book in the slow-burn romantic urban fantasy Ghost Pack series, set in the unforgiving arctic wilderness where forced proximity, found family, and fierce werewolves collide.
