Summary: Finally back in Massachusetts, vegan werewolf Kyle Slidell hopes for a peaceful life with his mate, Anax Tobias Rogan. But the pressure of ruling all werewolves in the United States is getting to Tobias. Kyle worries that the gentle, compassionate man he fell in love with is becoming like the previous Anax: a power-mad ruler who is all too eager to kill. An old friend comes to Tobias for help in rescuing his mate from an abusive Alpha. As the extent of the Alpha’s crimes comes to light and the Alpha flees, Tobias sentences him to death. And he seems all too eager to carry out the sentence. As they and their guards search for the fugitive Alpha, Kyle will do anything to ensure that the power within Tobias doesn’t take control—including becoming the Anax’s enforcer. This book includes an on-page death in a werewolf attack, the on-page execution of a werewolf, discussions of abuse and assault, and depictions of PTSD.

Summary: Kyle Slidell has been a werewolf for three months now. The only thing that makes it bearable is his mate Tobias Rogan, the Alpha of their pack. Now Kyle must accompany Tobias to the regional gathering of Alphas, where Tobias will declare Kyle his mate.

Summary: When Kyle Slidell was transferred to Boston by his company, he didn't expect to start crushing on his new neighbor, Tobias Rogan. He didn't expect Tobias to say yes to a date. And he sure as hell didn't expect to be attacked by a werewolf while picking strawberries for his dinner with Tobias--or to become a werewolf himself. Even as a werewolf, Kyle maintains his veganism. He's the only known were who can outstubborn his wolf, the only one who isn't bound by the compulsion power possessed by alphas, and the only known *male* mate of a male Alpha. Because that's who Tobias turns out to be: Alpha of the pack Kyle has unknowingly been living among. Which is the last thing Kyle expected. This book contains discussion of past sexual trauma (the trauma does not occur on-page, the conversation does), physical violence between werewolves, abduction, and a werewolf Alpha living with PTSD. This is a revised and moderately edited version of a book previously published in 2011.
