If you'd have told me my high school sweetheart would reject me in front of our entire pack, I'd probably have punched you straight in the kisser.

Sure, fated mates are a big thing in my world, but I had something better. I had love we chose. Way more romantic than Fate deciding for you, in my opinion.

Because clearly, I know better than Fate.

Suddenly without a pack, My only real option is to strike out and find my place in the world. And for all my complaining about her meddling, Fate may just prove to have my best interests at heart.

Two big cat shifters stalk their way into my life, clawing through my defenses, and a mage blasts away all of my assumptions about his kind. They're not the pack I was born into, but they may just be the pack I need.

Especially when it comes time to face off against the man I loved and the pack that banished me.

•Destined to Lead is a standalone novel in a shared world. That means that each Shifting Society book builds on the general world, but they all follow new main characters and can be read individually without missing anything. It was previously published under the pen name Sterling Thomas - but don't worry, nothing's changed within the book outside of the pen name!
