Generations of werewolves have been secretly residing in a secluded valley a stone's throw from Grundy, Alaska. So when a snooping Outsider comes to Grundy to investigate rumors of lycanthropic shenanigans in the area, the valley's pack alpha, Maggie Graham, resolves to chase him away, even if doing so takes a quick bite on the butt. What a pity that researcher Nick Thatcher turns out to be so drool-worthy, and that his kisses make Maggie want to sit up and beg. Maggie just can't seem to convince Nick to leave . . . and even worse, she can't convince herself to stay away from him. Cross-species dating is problem enough for a harried alpha female, but on top of that, a rival group of werewolves is trying to move into the valley. With interpack war threatening, Maggie can't afford to be distracted. Combining romance and a career can be tough for anyone; for a werewolf in love with a human, it may be disastrous. . . .
Even in Grundy, Alaska, it's unusual to find a naked guy with a bear
trap clamped to his ankle on your porch. But when said guy turns into a
wolf, recent southern transplant Mo Wenstein has no difficulty
identifying the problem. Her surly neighbor Cooper Graham - who has been
openly critical of Mo's ability to adapt to life in Alaska - has
trouble of his own. Werewolf trouble.
For Cooper, an Alpha in
self-imposed exile from his dysfunctional pack, it's love at first sniff
when it comes to Mo. But Cooper has an even more pressing concern on
his mind. Several people around Grundy have been the victims of wolf
attacks, and since Cooper has no memory of what he gets up to while in
werewolf form, he's worried that he might be the violent canine in
question.
If a wolf cries wolf, it makes sense to listen, yet Mo
is convinced that Cooper is not the culprit. Except if he's not
responsible, then who is? And when a werewolf falls head over haunches
in love with you, what are you supposed to do anyway? The rules of
dating just got a whole lot more complicated. . . .
