ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date August 12, 2025

Nadine Torrance has been hunting down the cold-blooded killers she believes are responsible for her father’s death—but what she finds is far more complicated than vengeance. Her search leads her straight to Conall Stewart, a loyal wolf of the Sunburst Pack whose presence awakens an unwanted mate bond that shakes the foundation of everything Nadine thought she knew about her father.

For Conall, life has always revolved around protecting the pack alongside his twin brother Quinton. But Nadine’s arrival throws his world into chaos, forcing him to choose between the brother who’s always been by his side and the fated mate he never expected. As their undeniable connection ignites, Conall and Nadine are drawn into an intricate web of secrets and lies that stretches far beyond their own pasts.

With the sinister Chimera organization threatening the safety of the packs around them, Conall and Nadine must learn to trust each other before time runs out. As danger closes in and loyalties are tested, they must surrender to a bond that defies logic—or risk losing each other, and everyone they love, forever.

REVIEW:CONALL is the third instalment in Margo Bond Collins contemporary, adult THE SUNBURST PACK paranormal, slightly sci-fi, romance series focusing on the members of the Sunburst Pack of wolf shifters. This is Nadine Torrance, and Conall Stewart’s story line. CONALL can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for back story and cohesion as there is an ongoing premise throughout.

NOTE: THE SUNBURST PACK is a spin off from the author’s MOONSTONE PACK, both of which are only available at KOBO

Told from three omniscient third person perspectives (Nadine, Conall and Quinton) CONALL follows in the wake of incoming threats from an outside source. Nadine Torrance has been led to believe the Stewart Twins, Conall and Quinton, were responsible for the death of her father but Nadine never expected to find her fated mate in Conall Stewart. Conall is all about protecting the people he loves, and Nadine is threatening to take down everyone she believes is part of the Chimera organization including our story line hero but all is not as it appears to be as Conall and Nadine begin a deeper dive into the darkness that is consuming all of the wolf shifter packs, a darkness that has infiltrates the Sunburst Family.

The world building follows several paths including the strained relationship between Conall and his twin brother Quinton. Conall and Quinton have always worked together since they were young but the arrival of Nadine, and mating of our story line couple threatens Conall and Quinton’s brotherhood in the face of perceived betrayal, jealousy and sibling rivalry.

The relationship between Conall and Nadine begins acrimoniously as Nadine blames Conall and Quinton for the death of her father but as the reality of the situation reveals a more sinister betrayal, Nadine struggles with the building mating bond, with a man she believes could kill them all. The $ex scenes are limited but passionate.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful , energetic and sometimes questionable secondary and supporting characters including the previous story lines couples, as well as Conall’s twin brother Quinton Stewart. Quinton’s story line is next.

CONALL is a story of secrets and lies, betrayal and vengeance, power and control, jealousy and rivalry, acceptance and love. The premise is detailed, complex and dramatic; the romance is limited but fated; the characters are desperate and determined.
