They must face prejudice for their love, and an unknown nemesis. Ceron known as 'Red' due to his beautiful rose-gold hair, works two jobs to help support himself and his grandmother. He cannot understand why the local Wolven pack would suddenly begin to attack villagers after generations of living next to his village in peace. When he is attacked by Torrin, a big, cruel woodsman who seeks to be the next village burgher, it is a Wolven who rescues him. Storm is the son of the pack's Alpha, and the two men are instantly attracted to one another. Storm courts Ceron carefully, each man knowing that to love the other would meet with disapproval. But their love will not be denied. However, if the Wolven are innocent, who is guilty?
