After years of unrest, Emy has finally found some sense of peace by living quietly far away from her family and her pack. But her world is thrown into chaos when she discovers a fellow Chanku trapped in a human trafficking and prostitution ring. Now Emy must turn for help to the pack she left behind. On the outside Gabe Cheval has it all. Stunningly handsome and strong, he's a prominent and valuable member of the pack-but he carries a fear that he will never find a woman of his own. He remembers Emy from his childhood, and he's shocked when he goes to help her and discovers that the silly young girl has grown into a sensuous and beautiful young woman-one who tantalizes him with the sense that she could be the perfect mate to finally end his loneliness. But even as Gabe and Emy come together to rescue the captive woman and explore the undeniable attraction building between them, the dark menace that lurks deep in Emeline's heart threatens to push them apart. Through Gabe's loving and erotic touch and Emy's open and passionate trust in him, they uncover a horrible secret that could threaten the very core of the Chanku hierarchy.
