SummaryWolf-shifter hybrid Acier Gautier has a tremendous weight
resting on his shoulders. Alpha-in-Waiting, he will be the
first non-purebred shifter to lead his pack. There are
pressing issues demanding his attention before he can take
command of Pack Gautier. Not the least of which is the
sensuous, dark beauty Raven Monclaire, whose welfare her
father has entrusted to Acier. Instead of protecting her
from other men, Acier finds himself wanting her with a
passion that will make continuing to deny his vampire blood
impossible. His unrelenting hunger for her forces him to
consider the possibility that she might be his bloodlust, a
vampire's perfect mate.
After graduating from college, Raven tracked down the
handsome, mysterious Acier for the express purpose of
pursuing an intimate relationship with him. Raven is
undeterred when he rejects her romantic overtures. She has
always known things she shouldn't and she has seen a future
with Acier. Or it could be the future she saw with Acier's
twin brother, Etienne, who freely admits to the feelings
Acier steadfastly denies.
As Acier and Raven struggle to come to terms with their
consuming passion for each other, Acier's one-time friend,
Leon, insists a purebred wolf-shifter should lead Pack
Gautier. With the help of a powerful outsider and a vampire
fem, Leon challenges Acier for leadership of the pack. For
the first time in his life, Acier faces a foe powerful
enough to threaten everything dear to him. Desperation
drives him to appeal for help to the one person he despites
above all, the unknown vampire father who deserted him and
Etienne before they were born.
