Aurelia Fridell is a freak amongst her own kind, the only werewolf who can't shift.Her family loves and accepts her, but the other packs treat her as if she were a flea-ridden stray, even though she's the Pack Alpha's daughter. She's made peace with her rank, but lately, the hair on the back of her neck raises at odd times, and she thinks someone is following her. She dismisses the thoughts and the fact that her headaches are getting worse.Then her tires get slashed, her house gets broken into, and the only person she can trust turns out to be the one man who doesn't want her.Ceithin Starkley came to Connecticut for one thing, and one thing only: to get Henrikki Fridell off his back about joining his ironworking company. He figures he'll get in, look at the job, then turn down the offer so he can head back home. Only his plan isn't so simple once he gets a whiff of Aurelia and his wolf won't let him leave while she's in danger. Now all he has to do is send his girlfriend home, woo Aurelia, and fight off her over-protective brothers to prove he's a worthy male.Easy, right?But when Aurelia's stalker escalates and kidnaps her, Ceithin must work with Aurelia's family to rescue her from a faceless enemy. He's fought to ignore her, but now can't live without her. Will he find her before it's too late?The clock is ticking.
