Trevor Hale is the runt of the first litter of the two that arrived during the latest attack. It’s complicated and with history that’s hard to keep up with, but they made their choice to go against Hell and their family, praying they would be welcomed at the sanctuary their cousins ran to… Except they seemed to have missed the boat of new hounds being welcomed. Dublin Carey’s been used all of his life by everyone who was supposed to care about him except Barry, so he trusts his friend when he says Dublin should give the hounds another chance. Imagine his shock when he meets a surprising hound without the attitude. And he’s hot. Can’t forget he’s hot. The feeling is mutual and fun is had… Until Dublin learns it’s not a fling but his mate and Trevor’s been plotting behind his back. Is there any way for Trevor to convince his mate that it was for the right reasons, or has he not only lost his mate but ruined the chance of his brothers having a sanctuary?
