Narrated by Ember Bell and Gabriel McKnight
Gareth
I've always had a thing for pretty, feisty Kiera Silvermoon. Unfortunately, she's always had an eye for one man: my best friend and the new White Woods pack alpha, Luca Ferrar.
But now that Luca's freshly-mated, Kiera's noticed me—really noticed me—for the first time in my life. I'm under no illusion that she wants me—I'm a distraction, and I know it. But the more I see past the vain exterior Kiera has always presented to the pack, the more determined I am to have her—forever. The only thing I need to do is convince her I'm the wolf for her.
Kiera
I set my sights on Luca Ferrar years ago. Netting the White Woods prince would have been a guaranteed escape from the hell of my abusive family. I almost had him, too. Then his childhood sweetheart came home, and any chance at escaping my miserable life disappeared.
Taking Luca's best friend to bed on Luca's mating night was petty—but no one expects anything better from me. I've known Gareth's had a thing for me for years, but I've always assumed it was a purely physical attraction. So why not take him to bed? A quick fling will make me feel better about losing Luca, and distract me from my shitty life.
But in addition to being the best sex I've ever had, Gareth has a thing for more than just my body. He has a thing for me. But even if I can admit I'm falling in love with him, one question remains: is he wolf enough to solve my problems?
Author's Note: Beta's Heart is a steamy novella set in the Daughters of Elysium world. Like all the content for this series, it can be read as a standalone, although this one is probably best enjoyed after reading Hunter's Heart.
