Sass Me Again

She ran from him once. Her wolf won't let her run twice. 

Emily Holmes has spent more than a decade trying to convince herself she made the right choice. 

Once upon a time, she and Ian Summers were something. 

Something good. Something that might have become forever if Emily hadn't let her family convince her he wasn't good enough. 

Ian came from the wrong side of the tracks, and Emily's father made his feelings perfectly clear: choose Ian, and lose her family. 

So Emily walked away. Ian never did. He's always known Emily was his mate. He knew it when they were together, and he knew it every year she kept him at arm's length. 

But after more than a decade of waiting for the woman the Fates chose for him, Ian is done letting her family decide their future. And this time, Emily's wolf seems to agree. 

The attraction she tried so hard to bury is still there. So is the bond neither time nor distance could erase. Now Emily has to decide whether she's finally ready to stop living the life her family chose for her and claim the man she's never truly stopped wanting. 

Because Ian has already lost his mate once. He's not about to lose her again.
