Detective Reece Gallagher has spent the last decade working as a cop in Chicago so he can search for her-the red-haired woman who haunts his dreams. He's just about ready to give up and go home to Salvation, North Carolina, when he finally finds her. But she's the assault victim on a case he's working on, and there's a full-blooded werewolf who wants her dead. He needs to keep her safe and convince her she's his mate. Hannah Burdette has a secret she's never told anyone. But there is someone who knows who-or rather, what-she is. There's a stalker after her who plans to rid the world of her "impure" blood. When the cop she meets turns out to be a werewolf and claims she doesn't have to be alone anymore, she's wary. But where better to hide from a bloodthirsty hunter than in the middle of North Carolina, with the security of a pack surrounding her? Contains mature themes.
