Gwen Miller could be a human, but she has no problem going for a stand against her own kind.

She is going to testify against the teenage boy she saw viciously assault a lone shifter female-and no quantity of pressure through the boy’s wealthy family can make her back down. But when the harassment becomes violent, help comes in the form of the lean, toned wolf with winter-gray eyes. As a guest at Gwen’s inn, shifter enforcer Zander Devlin can’t help but observe that the fierce and leggy brunette is in serious trouble.

Since she’s putting herself at risk for just one of his kind, keeping her safe may be the least he can do. That’s not the only reason Zander wants her close. He desires her, even as the wolf inside him backs from her. But his feral instincts are hard to maintain down, and because they take form, they’re harder for Gwen to resist.

Then again, embracing them could be the just thing that could save her life.
