title: Socks to be an Alpha's Mate
author: Byrne, Anya
description: What do an angry, overworked Alpha werewolf and an antisocial, human, animal-care worker possibly have in common? Nothing much, except perhaps the same laundromat. And then, a certain witch gets it into her head to teach humans a lesson about the meaning of soulbonds. Just like that, everything goes to hell.
  When Alpha Sullivan Dupree and Emery Thatcher meet, it's not love at first sight. In fact, it's anything but. It's the worst first impression possible—which makes it even crazier when, upon their second meeting, they realize a witch has forcibly soulbonded them. Soulmates? Hell no!
  As a werewolf, Sullivan is used to getting screwed over by witches, but this is a bit much. As for Emery... Suffice to say he is not impressed with the paranormal world's propensity to take over his life.
  Stuck together, Emery and Sullivan now have to make the best of this strange twist. But is it truly a curse, or is it a blessing in disguise? What will our intrepid heroes discover through their unlikely bond?
