After being thrown out of his home by his aunt, Ethan Gold finds himself living out of his car. One night he parks up in Black Rock Forest and wonders about getting lost in the darkness, in the trees, like the boy he once cared for did. When a snow storm sweeps in, Ethan rescues a naked young man he finds freezing on the forest road. He needs to get Win to a hospital or at least somewhere warmer than his car, but he can’t see well enough to drive in the snow. When the wolves begin to surround his car, he realises he has to get them out of there. He tries not to think about how much Win reminds him of the boy he lost. Win must survive the next twenty-four hours in order to break his curse. If he can’t get warm, he’ll die. He hoped he’d be able to warm up in the town of Black Rock somewhere, at the supermarket or the library. He didn’t expect Ethan to find him in the road. The last thing Win wants is to hurt Ethan and steal his warmth, but he can’t help but be drawn to him. Ethan Gold feels like home. He’s always felt like home to Win. When the wolves track them down, Win begins to realise surviving his curse isn’t enough, he must protect his home. With his life if he has to.
