            Synopsis
Her innocence destroyed, young widow Tally Bernard swore that she would never trust a man again. But when her brother disappears, she has little choice but to make a pact with the devil.

     
Though he wants nothing more than to live a quiet life on a ranch of his own, Simeon Kavanaugh can’t escape the legacy of his werewolf father. The animal instincts that keep him from being fully human also make him a brilliant tracker, forced to survive on the desperation of people in need.
     
The attraction between these two wounded souls in immediate, primal – and dangerous. If Simeon has any hope of saving Tally, he must do what he has always resisted and merge both man and beast within him. But if she cannot accept what he becomes, his choice may cost Simeon the only thing worth having – Tally’s love.

     my Thoughts (review)
It’s about a werewolf who was born to a whore and disowned by his father to be left with a best friend who wanted nothing but to be rich without any real work.

     
A map that has been lost and the only person who knows where it is fell down a cliff looking for its treasures and isn’t recovering. And a girl who has a past that she doesn’t want anyone to know, and for good reason, though when Sim comes into her life and they fall in love all their secrets must come out.
It’s only then when all is said and done that the wolf realises he had all he was looking for at his fingertips, he was just too scared to take it.

This is like the my fav of the ones I have read so far. There’s nothing like a woman needing to prove something to a world that just would see anything but what she is. It’s kind of shows you.... no I reckon it still happens now. Anyway, they are two great characters, both very big personalities with lots to hid and quest that pulls them into each other’s arms. But when all is revealed, will they stay that way?
