He buried the wolf, the war, and the girl he couldn't save. The people who just took his family are about to dig up all three.

Logan Zorander spent thirty-four years being no one in particular.

The last son of a wolf-shifter crime dynasty, he walked away at twenty-three, buried the animal his father built him into, and made a quiet life in New York ? with a wife who loves him, a son just learning to run on four legs, a corner table at a restaurant he likes. He told himself the past was finished with him.

It isn't.

When the Conti pack takes Amy and Noah ? his wife dosed, so her wolf can't surface, then wired, his six-year-old wired, so a single phone call ends them both ? Logan is given seventy-two hours and one task: find the man who engineered the fire that destroyed the Conti family in 1989, and bring him in alive. It is the one night Logan has spent his whole life refusing to remember. The night a girl named Kerra ? nineteen, gentle, carrying his child ? walked into a burning house she had no way out of, because a wolf who can't change can only burn.

To save the family he has now, Logan has to become the weapon he swore he'd never be again ? and hunt his way across a city that has put a price on his scent. But every name on the trail drags him closer to a truth somebody buried three decades ago: one that could finally end the war between the wolves ... or finish what the fire began.

He failed the first family he tried to protect.

He will not fail this one.

A standalone wolf-shifter romantic suspense ? fated mates, a second-chance marriage worth fighting for, and a hero clawing his way back to the man he was meant to be. Clean / sweet heat: emotional and intense, with no explicit content. Happily ever after guaranteed.
