Shane River is the last of the Bad Oak boys to feel the pull of his animal trying to get out. Problem is, once he shifts, the wolf wants nothing more than to run far away ... alone. He's an Alpha Lone Wolf, and that means he doesn't need a pack.
Tim Cooper thought his father was human. He wasn't. He thought his werewolf mother could survive anything. She didn't. He thought he'd never be able to shift, but he thought wrong, and the truth is more disturbing than anything he could've imagined.
When Shane finds Tim's mother dying in the desert, he vows to track down the vicious wolf-coyote hybrids responsible for the attack. He doesn't expect her son Tim: a hybrid who has no idea what he is. He doesn't expect Tim's animal to call to his wolf. And he certainly doesn't expect to mate with a creature ravaged by grief, but when instinct howls, the wolf must obey.
