Being the new wolf in town isn’t easy, but Lynwood Pierce is used to being on the outside. He often finds himself buried knee-deep in politics before he can figure out where the best place to grab a cup of coffee might be, but this small town is different—she is different. Dara is a bitch in more ways than one. Running a pack might not have been her dream job, but she’s a firm believer that life happens while you’re making other plans. A rogue on her turf means she’s going to fight, and she is ready to face the challenge. A woman with no plans to be tamed and a rootless wolf with no plans to stick around shouldn’t have more than a brief encounter and be done. However, when Dara meets Lynwood, the call to mate might drown out logic altogether.
