All the power and killer instinct she possess can't protect her from the claiming of one determined wolf.

The deadly magic within her is a living thing, able to crush anyone and everything with a blink. Abandoning the blood-soaked world she's used to, Voltaire seeks out the one constant in her tired life-the green-eyed wolf in her dreams. She's ignored the wolf's call for years, afraid to surrender, but danger haunts her mate. He needs her.

He finds the source already under his nose, in his home. The delicate woman in white knows things no one should know, and the heat simmering between them is unlike anything he's ever felt. His wolf recognizes her as his mate, though Blake remains unsure he can trust her.

Voltaire sets out to prove herself with time running out. Enemies are on the prowl, some foreseen, others remaining cloaked in shadow. She and Blake team up, fighting side by side, but in the end Voltaire might be the biggest threat to their love.

Everyone dies, and no one knows this better than Tucker—a shape-shifting wolf whose sole purpose is to sacrifice himself to heal the Earth.

But when he tells Emma, a feisty blonde whose touch is just as fiery as her personality, about the pact he has with his not-so-immortal life, she does whatever she can to change his mind. Falling in love wasn't part of the plan, but now he's falling fast. And if that isn't bad enough, the mind-blowing sex and Emma becoming the pack's new alpha certainly add complications.
