When Josiah agreed to become the coyote alpha, he knew it was a bad idea, and he was right. No matter how hard he tries, the band doesn't respect him, and he doesn't know how to change that. With humans sticking their noses all over the forest, he has to solve that problem, but how?

Luther might be in the forest to keep an eye on the shifters who live here, but that doesn't mean he's enjoying it. He has to follow orders, even when he disagrees with them, which in this case, he does. Shifters shouldn't be locked up, and they should have the same rights as humans.

Josiah doesn't know why Luther seems so interested in him, but he can't chalk it up to Luther doing his job for long. When it becomes obvious there's more between them, Josiah tries to keep his distance, because Luther is human, and eventually, he'll leave.

But Luther doesn't want to leave. He's in love with Josiah and will do pretty much anything for him, including trying to find a way to be allowed to stay.

Luther's superior has plans, though, and there's still a shooter on the loose in the forest. Then there's Josiah's problem with the band, which he knows will become worse once they find out he's pregnant. Can Josiah and Luther find a way to make things work, even an imperfect one, or are they doomed to be wrenched apart by circumstances?
