Tupper Mills is a genetic disaster, a monster who has been kicked out of every pack she's belonged to. The Swift River Pack is the end of the line for her. If she can't figure out how to get along and submit to the Alpha, she'll be put down.
Jake Linton is risking his entire pack by bringing a ticking time-bomb into their midst, but he of all werewolves knows what has made Tupper the way she is. He'll need to do all he can to make her submit to him, because the price for failure is her death.
But when hunters targeting shifters bring a war to the pack's compound, Jake realizes that a monster might be what they need. Together, he and Tupper might be able to save their pack. And together they might find there's more between them than they'd ever hoped for.
