Determined to be the best Beta he can, Rev has made sure to keep his distance from Martha, the female he knows to be his mate. He's not sure he even knows how to be a decent mate to her. All that changes when the Alpha and the Coeur conspire to make sure that Martha and Rev both face what they've known to be true for so long. One look is all it takes, but there is so much more to being a mated couple than facing the claim. Martha is not ready to give up anything in her life, not even to make room for him. Rev is ready, but only as long as his female bends her life to fit into his. Pushing and pulling, each one will have to decide which is more important-the life they've built, or the one they could have together.
