Klappentext Together but unbound! they must learn what it means to love completely! in the latest novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Wild Wolf. To cement the leadership of his North Carolina Shiftertown! Bowman O'Donnell agreed to a "mating of convenience.” Two powerful wolf shifters! he and Kenzie keep the pack in order and are adored by all.
