Tom had spent a lifetime letting everyone around him down... Or so he thought.

Tom Levinson had spent the past ten years of his life constantly being told he was a failure and would never measure up and was a complete disappointment to Shifters everywhere because his lack of control could expose them to human scrutiny. When he boarded the plane to Russia he knew he would not be coming back in the passenger cabin. No, he'd be classified as cargo by that point. He had less than no hope.

Yana Sidorova had spent a few years trying to get over the death of her parents by drowning herself in work and academic rigor. She had a theory and wanted to follow it, being driven ever Eastward in her search for an ancient Wolf Cult. Instead she runs into a charming American who sweeps her off her feet. He's the perfect man.

Tom is not just a man and he knows immediately that Yana is his mate. However, the course of true love never runs smoothly and they are both betrayed and the danger comes from a source that neither of them expected.
