No one knows better than Gideon MacInnes how dangerous it can be to
fall in love. As the future leader of a pack of Highland werewolves who
guard an ancient and powerful secret, Gideon can't afford to bond with
the wrong woman. The bite of the werewolf is too often fatal... and never
lightly given. But on his last night in America, an unforeseen attack
leaves him in the care of exactly the sort of woman he can never have.
And the only one he will ever want.
Carly Silver might
sell stories for a living, but she never expected one to show up on her
doorstep. While the night shows her only a beast pleading for her help,
the morning light reveals a man out of her darkest dreams. Straight out
of legend and surrounded by danger, Gideon is the last man Carly should
be letting into her life... even if he's almost impossible to resist. But
trapped by an early Northern New York snowstorm, she hasn't got
anywhere to run.
As the Stone of Destiny begins to work
its magic beneath the Highland moon, reluctant attraction quickly
deepens into something infinitely more irresistible. But with an
ancient enemy reaching across worlds in a quest for the ultimate prize,
their new love isn't the only thing that risks being destroyed. As
Gideon makes his stand for a power his people never knew they
possessed, Carly must face her own deadly decision. And if love is to
survive, both must find the courage to embrace the beast within.
Because the moon is calling, and there are things beyond imagining
waiting in the darkness for them both.
