What do you do when nothing goes your way? A. Try to work with what you’ve got B. Get drunk and try again tomorrow C. Cry about it D. Kill yourself and hope for a better next life *** Blair is an assertive 22 year old woman working at a makeup company—KLARE. She knows where to draw the line between her and people, and makes sure never to cross it. Fun fact: she’s a hardcore realest.

Blair is adamant on staying away from the boss she strangely feels attracted to. But just how long could she ignore the mate bond? Throw in werewolves, trust issues and toxicity into the mix. Now Blair really must put an effort into the life that she’s planned to bullshit her way through
