There are reasons wild wolves avoid humans, stay out of cities, and never remain in one place long enough to call it home. Nick Pearson understands those reasons better than most, which is why he's spent most of his life living as a drifter. A life that is upended when he inherits a partnership in a rundown mountain resort along with a brother and sister he didn't know existed. The last thing he expects is Mandy Jenson, a gorgeous, wrench-wielding plumber, to walk into his newly acquired existence. She is his mate and a temptation he can't resist. When a rival shifter threatens his home and her life, Nick will do whatever it takes to keep Mandy safe and claim her as his own.
