“Later,” Ridge interrupts. “Let him have his fun for a few more minutes.”
And despite everything, the debt, the fear, the impossible task ahead, we all laugh. Because that’s what we do. We face the stampede together, and we find a way to run faster.
Four weeks. Half a million dollars. One ride.
We can do this.
We have to.

When the Universe Decides You’ve Had Enough Happiness
Dearest Diary,
Remember yesterday when I was floating on cloud nine? When I thought I’d finally figured this whole life thing out?
Yeah, well.
The universe just called to inform me that my subscription to happiness has expired, and no, I cannot renew at this time. Would I like to sign up for the Suffering Plus package instead? It comes with bonus anxiety and a free side of financial ruin!
Just when I thought my life was finally coming together, that the shit was behind me, and I could move on, start fresh with my three scent matches who actually want me around, the universe pulled the ultimate “SYKE!”
Here’s what happened in bullet points because if I write it in paragraphs, I’ll cry:
Someone from ex-Alpha’s past has orchestrated revenge
Said revenge involves three million dollars I don’t have
If I don’t find it in fourweeks, I lose everything
Including the ranch that was supposed to be my fresh start
And the home my Alphas just made perfect for me
Three. Million. Dollars.
That’s the price tag on my happiness, apparently.
