When veterinarian Emily
Brownstone, 55, finds a poisoned wolf on the roadside, she doesn’t realize the
chain of events that will follow.
Someone is trying to kill off the native wildlife, and Emily’s action in saving the wolf will threaten her life, but will also bring her the man of her dreams.
Tate Collins, 57, can’t believe his luck—he’s finally met his soul mate after all these years. All he has to do is tell her his secret—and it is a big one! He just hopes she won’t freak out when she finds out he spends a lot of his time running around on four legs!
But even if she does accept him, will they find each other only to be torn apart by the danger that threatens the wildlife—and Emily?

STORY EXCERPT:
"There’s
an injured animal on the road, but I can’t lift it by myself. Could you help me
please? I want to put it in the rear of my car."
The
two men exchanged a look, and Emily felt apprehensive. The look seemed like
some silent conversation between them. She didn’t like it, but there was
nothing she could do now.
"Injured
animal. What sort?"
"A
wolf."
Another
looked passed between them, and Emily felt the hair on the back of her neck
stand. They seemed to be communicating with just body language and looks. It
freaked her a little. Before she could tell them to forget about it, they
pulled their four-wheel drive to the side of the road and got out. Both men
quickly went to the fallen animal. They whispered something to each other and
turned to her. Emily could see they were extremely worried and upset, rather
more than you’d expect.
"Ma’am,
it’s pretty dangerous to put a wild wolf in your car. Why don’t you let us take
it?"
Oh, oh.
Suddenly
Emily realized these two could be poachers and here she was handing over a
beautiful wolf to them. The trade in illegal wolf pelts was still happening and
rather lucrative.
Firmly
she said, "If you get it onto the back of my jeep, I can check it out and
sedate it if necessary. I’m a vet."
Of
course, Emily hadn’t practiced full-time for a few years. She’d retired but ran
a small practice from her home. Still, she always carried an emergency kit in
her car. The taller of the two men seemed to hover over her, and Emily began to
back away to the jeep.
"I
really think you should let us take it."
His
voice was not quite menacing, but it had enough force to make Emily very nervous,
but she was determined these two wouldn’t intimidate her and take the wolf.
"No.
It needs medical attention."
He
stepped very close to her. Regretting her decision to ask for help, she touched
the back of the jeep. Casually putting a hand behind her, she groped inside for
something heavy in case they attacked her. The shorter of the men leaned toward
the other and whispered. The tall one glanced down at her, and he took a couple
of backward steps.
