Hartlock Ranch needed a mail-order bride, only betas need apply.

Hale Hartlock was getting married for one reason only: to give his wild younger brother a nurturing influence. Omegas were a rarity, and one wouldn't choose to live in the wildlands. Hale wouldn't take any chances, not when his hatred of the spoiled designation ran so deeply. He swore to the men of Hartlock Ranch, Ruck and Oliver, that nothing would change, certainly not their hearts.

But Esta, Hale's sweet beta bride, was a temptation none of them could resist. Earnest, hardworking, and innocent, she didn't belong in the wildlands. But Hartlock Ranch was rejuvenated by her presence, and it wasn't just Hale falling deeper in love with Esta. Ruck, Hale's brother, and their farmhand, Oliver, both harbored emotions that had no right to exist.

The government outlawed packs years ago, so why did the idea seem so right?

Unfortunately, Esta had a secret, one that would destroy the tender romance building between the three of them. She was an omega in disguise, and her time had just run out. When Esta's true identity is revealed, the only solution is to become something that goes against everything their society believes.

Hartlock Pack.

Could this mail-order bride finally find a home, or will long-held hatreds tear them all apart?
