Summary
It was the era of Kings and Queens, of wars and conquerors, of mating, breeding and arranged marriages. There were many gods and you could worship, many beliefs you could follow, several kingdoms you could live on but one rule was a universally accepted, respected and followed: An Alpha must rule.
Alphas were the top of the chain, the leaders, the rulers. The head of a kingdom could rule their people as they pleased, could enforce whichever law they liked and could take as many partners as their beliefs allowed them to.
Before an alpha could ascend to the throne, however, they had to be married. Therefore, arrange marriages were a common occurrence specially between royal houses.Or

Summary
Nicole Haught is living the dream. She works day in, day out in the glorious sunshine of the Florida Keys, showing the tourists the time of their lives. With sun, sand, friendships, and girls at her feet, she’s grasped nine years of her life with both hands. But she’s older now, and the friends are starting to come and go, and the girls don’t feel the way they used to. She can’t help but wonder whether maybe it’s time to move on.
Waverly Earp is chasing her dreams. She’s worked tirelessly all her life to achieve the master’s degree that hangs proudly on the wall of her lifelong home. The world around her feels stale, and stifling, and her education always felt like her ticket out. It’s just that now that she finally holds the ticket in her hands, she doesn’t exactly know what she wants the destination to be.
Under the heat of the summer sunshine, maybe both just might find their answers.

Summary
Nicole was finding it more difficult than normal to concentrate on the never ending paperwork that seemed to cross her desk. The reason for that was currently perched on said desk, and from the way Waverly was aimlessly leafing through the paper file in her hands, it seemed that the distraction was mutual.
