Graham McNeil has learned that his pack is unruly, but he’s not sure he may take the next step toward pack stability. After shedding his first partner way back when, Graham spent some time working hard to maintain his heart in balance. Besides, even if he was willing to choose a new mate, his sweetheart, Misty, is normally human-a fact that won’t sit well with Graham’s old-fashioned pack.

But Misty is certainly going through a crisis of her very own, one that brings danger and loss of life towards the pack. With the wolves doubly convinced that there needs to be a shake-up, Graham must today defend his management and save the girl he is continuing to grow to love-before Shiftertown is usually drawn into an all-out battle.
