To Protect a Wolf

Shortly after he began changing under the moon, Ember Grant’s nephew Quinn disappeared. It doesn’t matter to Ember that he’s a lupine; Quinn is family, and he could be in danger. Protecting him is worth any risk. Ember traces him to a community outside the sleepy Tennessee town of Harmony Ridge. She’s not prepared to meet Aaron, a lupine who challenges everything she thought she knew about his kind. For one thing, he’s caring and patient. For another, he hates the word lupine.

Aaron Reed is a wolf. He knows what that means-the best and the worst of it-and he’s glad to accept custody of Quinn, a pup in need of guidance the way he once was. He’s not prepared to meet Ember, Quinn’s aunt, who shows up on his porch at five in the morning demanding to see her nephew. For one thing, she’s a battering ram of impatience. For another, his pack brothers say his intense attraction to her is more than attraction. It’s fate.

Aaron offers to house Ember as his guest until the next full moon, ten days away. Ten days for Ember to get to know the wolves, to see for herself that Quinn belongs and is safe here. Ten days for Aaron to show her that she belongs here too…with him. But Ember didn’t track down a wolf pack with anything like romance in mind, and Aaron has seen too many times how tenuous love can be. Life has taught both of them to keep up their guard. How will they learn to open their hearts?
