Malin is the Beta of the Red Ridge Pack and he takes his job of helping to protect the pack very seriously. When Camden and Bea come to town, he has his doubts about the two outsiders.

Then Bea falls for Gunner and he's stuck babysitting Camden so that the two lovebirds can get to know each other better.

When Camden turns eighteen and Malin finds out that she's his mate, he expects things to go as smoothly as they did for Gunner and Bea. Too bad for him, Camden wants nothing to do with him.

Camden just escaped one psycho man only to wind up with one who can't seem to stop growling things at her. She thinks Malin is a total jerk and is doing her best to ignore him. That is hard to do in this small town when he was ignoring her too, but now that he's decided that they're mates, it's almost impossible.

Malin wants his mate, but Camden isn't giving in that easily.
