War leaves my family destitute. My enviable life comes to an end. I shouldn’t covet the stern shifter who turns up offering to work for free. Even if he lights a fire under my curiosity when he casually mentions I’m in need of a firm, corrective hand. I definitely shouldn’t dream about the handsome barbarian who swore we would wed and then dropped me in the river. Although the stuffy lord I’m expected to marry does not stir my heart, I understand that he is the practical choice. But fate and a masked stranger have different plans for me. Author note: Contains hot shifter and barbarian claiming their omega and each other!
