To love, honor, and fake our way through the weekend. CassidyI'd do anything for my grandma, which is how I find myself hosting a family wedding in exchange for paying off her medical bills.

One hour in, and my bully cousins have torn down my job, my looks, and my critical lack of a date to the festivities. Enter Max.

He's six feet of smoldering charisma, dimpled charm… and my strictly platonic best friend and lifelong crush. Max agrees to be my date, only now his stormy eyes seem to devour me with every lingering look.

I tell myself it's all for show, that we're only playing our roles, but my body burns to make every sinful fantasy real. .

. MaxCassidy is off-limits, and not just because I've known her since I was a pup.

She's human, forbidden by pack law. But her vicious cousins turn my wolf into a snarling, possessive beast, howling to claim what's ours.

I thought I could play this game of temptation, but her scent drives me wild and her smiles are sweet torture. The more I pretend with Cass, the more I hunger for her luscious curves in my den and her taste on my tongue.

But the wedding guests aren't just celebrating the nuptials. Sadistic shifter hunters want to draw out my pack—and they'll use an innocent human as bait.

They'll regret threatening my fated mate once my fangs are at their throats. Unleash your wild side in Crescent Hollow, where primal instincts and fated mates collide! Joker Wolf's Fake Date Mate is a spicy friends to lovers romance between the girl next door and a dirty talking, protective shifter.

For readers who volunteer as tribute when they hear only one bed. .
