When Park gets a phone call from his family, he and Cooper immediately set off for their territory in Canada. It becomes apparent when they get there that Park hasn't only been keeping secrets from Cooper, but from his family as well. What starts out as a trip for a memorial service turns into a mysterious death, attempted murder, and a whole lot of pack politics. 

If the last book was all about Cooper coming to terms with his insecurities and past, this one is all about Park. Still from Cooper's POV, we slowly understand why Park is so closed off and nervous about Cooper learning his past. Even though I wanted to shake some sense into Park at the beginning, his love for Cooper is unparalleled and he is trying to protect him the only way he knows how. But he has nothing to fear because Cooper can't be scared away that easily. They really come into their relationship, having the hard but necessary conversations. I've really loved seeing how much they've grown from the first book to now, especially Cooper. 

Another solid book in this series. This mystery/crime was all over the place for me and I didn't see anything coming (in a good way). I'm not sure if it was just learning about the pack politics that was throwing me off but I couldn't even tell you who was suspicious. There was a little more world building with learning about the pack, Park's past, and other werewolf lore. I also loved the Cooper is just toting his cat around to this werewolf outing, Boogey you're doing great. Now that it seems that - for the most part - Cooper and Park have figured out their relationship, I'm excited to see the next phase of their journey.
