He's denying himself the one thing he craves his best friend's son.Older, battle-scarred alpha Gabriel has shunned the mating run for years—because the only mate his wolf wants is the one he can never have.

Asher. His best friend's son.

Gabriel made a promise to protect him. Not claim him. But when Asher tracks him down during the full moon and demands answers, Gabriel's iron control shatters like glass.

The boy he's tried so hard to keep safe isn't a boy anymore.

Gabriel thought he was strong enough to deny himself.

He was wrong.

OFF LIMITS is a high-heat knotty wolf shifter/human best friend's son age gap romance with consent miscommunication and a HEA. It's part of the Mating Run series, but can be read as a dark, spicy standalone.
