Jessa walked away from the Blackwood Pack when she failed to deliver on her end of a contract she signed with them. But she fears that the ironclad nondisclosure agreement she signed won't allow her to get far. There's only one person she thinks might be able to help her, except he's notoriously unhelpful and leads a gang of shifters that could be just as dangerous as the one she wants to leave. And now Fresh from an out of town trip that led to yet another friend's mating, Calder has returned home with a grumpy and dissatisfied bear. Until he finds out she already belongs to Luke Blackwood and his boss, Bhric has made her strictly off limits.
