This was such a wonderful and heartwarming story. Our heroine, Eveny, is a shifter wolf. She is coming up on her 25th birthday, and she will be coming into her heat soon. She will have to choose a mate unless she can find a way to be alone. There is no one in the pack she would choose for herself, but there is a human Luke. Luke has been her best friend since they were kids, and she is in love with him. If she were to choose anyone to share her life with, it would be him. But if she mates with him she will have to say good bye to her pack, and her family. But when her heat comes upon her, and four pack members are coming to rape and even kill her to weaken her brother who is alpha so they can take over...Luke protects her and she mates with him. I loved this story because it pulled at my emotions, kept me in suspense, and the writing captivated me. I just couldn't put it down. Exciting and passionate!
