The Wolf Between Cedar and Sea
Book Three of The Wild Crown Legacy
Mateo Vance wasn't looking for love.
He was looking for a painting.
As Alpha of the Salish Pack and CEO of Vancouver Shipping, Mateo's life is ruled by responsibility, duty, and the sea. When an old painting from his late father's office mysteriously disappears, his search leads him to Victoria "Tori" Kelly—an antiquities dealer with a gift for uncovering forgotten histories.
Victoria has spent years chasing artifacts connected to the mysterious Crown Legacy. She never expected the next clue to walk through her gallery wearing muddy dock boots... or to awaken something her wolf, Delta, has waited a lifetime to find.
Mateo is steady, protective, and infuriatingly difficult to ignore. His wolf, Torrent, is even worse—because Torrent seems entirely too certain that Victoria and Delta belong with them.
But a missing painting is only the beginning.
As ancient coastal symbols, hidden sea routes, unusual carvings, and long-forgotten pack histories begin to surface, Mateo and Victoria follow a trail that carries them through cedar forests, island communities, and the cold waters of the Pacific coast.
With every mile, the mystery grows.
So does the bond between them.
Mateo begins to discover that protecting the people he loves doesn't always mean leading from the front. Victoria learns that not every mystery is meant to be solved alone. And Torrent and Delta seem perfectly content to let their humans take as long as necessary to understand what the wolves already know.
Because someone erased an entire chapter of Wild Crown history.
And the people who came before them weren't simply leaving clues.
They were leaving a way to follow.
Now, with old alliances resurfacing and every discovery pulling them farther north, Mateo and Victoria must decide how far they are willing to follow a road almost lost to time—and whether they can trust each other with what waits at the end of it.
Some memories refuse to stay buried.
Some destinies begin with a single painting.
The Wolf Between Cedar and Sea is Book Three of The Wild Crown Legacy—a slow-burn paranormal wolf-shifter romance filled with found family, ancient mysteries, unforgettable wolves, protective heroes, humor, adventure, and a journey along the breathtaking Pacific coast.
