Fire chief and werewolf, Titus Merrow, has a pretty good life. Great family, great job, great friends. No love interest, sure, but hes? got too much going on to worry about that. Like the 10k race for charity that hes? helping to plan. Too bad the woman hes? planning it with is so hot. No, wait. He meant annoying. Sheriffs? deputy and valkyrie, Jenna Blythe, has somehow gotten stuck working on a charity event with her bosss? brother. Not only is Titus Merrow full of himself, but he challenges every suggestion she makes about the race. Why are the handsome ones always so smug? She cant? wait to beat him in the competition and bring home the trophy for the sheriffs? department. Again. But when they answer a call together and things explode, dangerous magic is unleashed. Theyr?e suddenly forced to work together. Literally. And the magic only gets more treacherous as time ticks forward. Not even Jennas? good friend seems to be able to help them as shady forces lurk in every shadow. Swords and sorcery abound, and Jennas? past comes back to haunt her. She and Titus are left with no choice but to question everything -and everyone. Whos? targeting them? Is what theyr?e feeling real? Can love survive against darkness? Can a valkyrie learn to run with the pack?
