--------
Beta Winter Nolan hates alphas. But what happens when he’s stranded on a deserted island with an alpha unlike any other in their world?
--------
Winter Nolan is a strong-willed beta with a deep-seated hatred for alphas. Growing up with six alpha brothers, he learned to avoid their chaotic energy and obnoxious jokes. Winter doesn’t date alphas. Known as the "Icy Prince" for his aloof attitude and striking albino looks, he keeps his guard up and steers clear of all mating/dating games, focusing solely on his career.
When his CEO proposes hiring alphas for their company, Winter is adamantly against it, believing they don’t fit well with programmers. But unforeseen circumstances force him to accept one in his department - Sariel Lowen, the CEO’s own son, an irritating rich kid.
Soon they are both sent on a business trip. However, their plane crashes, leaving them stranded on a deserted island. With no sign of rescue, their hope fades. After all, who could have survived a crash landing in freezing waters?
All they have is each other now.
But is Winter’s heart even colder than the icy island they’re stranded on?
And... there’s more to Sariel than meets the eye. He isn’t just any alpha - he’s a rare type, one that could change everything about the mating games...
