This book was first published by Evernight Publishing in 2014 as A Wolf's Mate. It's been both re-edited and formatted.Nick wouldn't say he hates humans, but let's just say they're not his favorite species to hang out with. So why does this one hold his interest and put his libido into top gear? Unless of course, she's his intended mate. But come on now, a human? Ava Spencer feels she's been sent to Montana on a case resembling something from the X-Files rather than anything in real life. Men shifting into animals? Give her a break and let her go home. That is until she spots the gorgeous man who seems to be just as interested in her as she is him. She's learned her lesson the hard way about handsome men but giving Nick a chance can't be so bad, can it? Well, not unless the truth he's hiding is the mother of all deceptions.
