Was it merely a coincidence that Jillian met James Macleod, the giant of a man with pale blond hair and a Viking-like appearance, at the same time as the white wolf she had relied on for years to soothe her in times of need, returned into her life? James Macleod was a changeling who had experienced a single night of blood and fire and lost everything important to him. A petite, blonde veterinarian rocked his resolve and turned his life upside down. Devastated by shame and driven by grief, he had turned into a big white wolf and sworn never to walk as a man again. In order to answer a terrifying riddle—who is this stunning woman and why is his wolfen side seeking her?—James must now relearn how to be human and move in his human flesh once more. September 30, 1977 As the night sky became darker, ghostly white smoke tendrils rose against it. After two days, the house was covered in a mound of burned beams and ash on one side. A human could not have endured such destruction. James Macleod wasn't a living being. He was lying broken, bleeding, and scorched well beneath the dark beams, on the verge of passing away but still unable to do so. He occasionally poked his head out of oblivion, only to have the unrelenting pain and misery take him back down. James finally opened his eyes as the declining moon covered its face. He briefly believed he was blind before realizing it was night, though he was unsure which night it was and didn't care. Even though he was still barely alive, he didn't give a damn. He started coughing up more blood and soot as a result of his fractured ribs screaming at him, but this time Oblivion was obstinately refusing to take him back.

Red werewolf Bella flees her adoptive pack of gray werewolves when the alpha male Volan tries forcibly to claim her as his mate. Her real love, beta male Devlyn, has been out of her life for years, but comes after her when she finds herself accidentally captured by humans. Bella becomes convinced that Devlyn only wants to return her to Volan, but soon realizes that Devlyn loves her as much as she loves him, and is willing to fight Volan to the death to claim her. That problem pales, however, as a pack of red werewolves takes to killing human females in a crazed quest to claim Bella for their own. Bella and Devlyn must defeat the rogue wolves before Devlyn's final confrontation with Volan. The vulpine couple's chemistry crackles off the page, but the real strength of the book lies in Spear's depiction of pack power dynamics, as well as in the details of human-wolf interaction. His wolf world feels at once palpable and even plausible. Bella, a female red werewolf, was adopted by a pack of gray wolves as a pup. Now grown up, the alpha of the pack tries to make her his mate against her will―Bella knows she has no choice but to run away. She makes her way as a lone wolf until childhood friend, Devlyn, comes to bring her home. On their journey back, they get tangled in up in unimaginable danger and must apprehend a werewolf murderer while keeping their identity secret from humans. The chemistry between them sizzles like never before…but they both know if they mate, Devlyn will have to fight the pack's wicked alpha…and it's a fight to the death.
