Rusty and Sam are now alpha and omega werewolf mates, forming a pack along with Mike. Every night brings the new pack closer to the full moon and Sam's first omega heat, but there's still someone missing...

Nick Bellici is scarred in body and mind from his time in the Marines, and now he's struggling alone with life after war. He's driven away everyone who cares about him—except his best friend Rusty, who won't stop asking him to come to California and meet his new boyfriend.
