What the Smoke Saw

“Ivy has spent her whole life hiding what she is. A wildfire smokejumper with an Omega bloodline she never asked for, she trusts smoke more than people, and she has sworn never to let a bond leash her. Then she jumps into the Bitterroot Valley and catches the scent of her fated mate in the smoke, and he is the one man who can ruin her: Dex, the Alpha who runs her jump base, a leader who cannot afford a mate and who fires her the same night. But a mark on her skin is older than either of them, and it ties her to a dead Alpha, a stolen pack and a territory the Council of Alphas wants for its silver. As the worst fire season in a decade closes in, someone on the crew is feeding their enemy every secret. Ivy must choose whether to run from the bond or claim a birthright that could burn the pack down. The fire is coming. The moon is rising. Someone in the smoke is lying. Place and Time: The Bitterroot Valley, Montana, present day, across one wildfire season from early summer to the first autumn snow.”
