About this book
Thirty years ago, Damon made the agonizing choice to walk away from his fated mate, Angie, bound by the responsibilities of a marriage and a child on the way. It was a sacrifice that haunted him for decades, but deep down, he always believed destiny wasn’t finished with them. Now, as a mature wolf shifter, he is determined to finally claim the love that slipped through his fingers.
Angie has returned to the shifter town of Greysden for one reason only: to settle her parents' estate and reconcile with her sister. She has spent a lifetime guarding her heart, convinced she is far too old for the complications of mate bonds. But when she discovers her sister’s new neighbor is none other than the man who once defined her soul, her carefully constructed defenses begin to crumble.
Forced proximity and a little meddling from her matchmaking family push the pair together, proving that midlife is the perfect time for a new beginning. This steamy paranormal romance delivers all the sparks of a second-chance love story wrapped in a cozy, fast-paced package. If you are looking for a heartwarming, fur-filled escape where love defies the passage of time, this is your next must-read.

I received a complimentary copy of this novella from Booksprout and I am voluntarily reviewing it. While this is a part of a series, you don't have read the prior ones to enjoy this on. I personally haven't BUT the first one in the series appears to be very short and free so I'm going to start it now. This novella is a short one but it really brings the different emotions to the surface. It has been awhile since I read a PN romance and I had forgotten the insta-love between fated mates. This...

This was a cute story that appealed to me since I am a little older! Angie never really connected with anyone of the opposite sex since she met and had to leave her fated mate. So being 50ish now, she thinks her chance to be mated passed her by. Damon shows her differently though; and I love his persistence! This story is an enjoyable romance for everyone!.

I loved this so much! I like finding stories about older folk falling in love. This is a second chance romance where our protagonist met and left her fated mate when she discovered he was already married and had his own family. They find themselves 30 years later and Damon tries to show Angie that their age doesn’t mean that they don’t get a real opportunity at being together.
