In the Alaskan wilderness, almost anything can be healed. Even a broken heart. A troubled woman … Ella May is coming home to Juneau for the first time in a year and a half. With a baby in tow and running for her life, pride is not an option. Babs Bula, the stylish woman who just happens to be a matchmaker, guides Ella back to Tate Montgomery. Ella can't deny she needs Tate's help, but she still hasn't forgiven her baby's father for his deceptions. A wounded man … When Tate’s fated mate left him a year and a half ago, he didn’t believe he’d ever recover. Maybe it had been a mistake to keep the truth from her for so long, but he’d only been trying to protect her. Now that Ella's landed on his doorstep with a child she says is his, he doesn’t know if he should be overjoyed or angry as hell. The cute, curvy girl he’s known since high school might still be the love of his life, but some mistakes can’t be fixed. Like keeping his baby from him for a year and a half. A lethal dilemma … Ella has a criminal wolf pack on her trail. Tate shelters her and the baby while his brother and cousin tackle the threat ... but that's the easy part. Can he and Ella learn to trust again, and rekindle the deep love they once shared? Or will Tate be left alone once more, without his mate and child?
