After receiving a cryptic letter, I journeyed to Deadwood, South Dakota to investigate the murder of my cousin, an Ossory wolf just like me.

Josephine
He’s finally arrived, and Hera’s toga! Not only can I not use my mind-reading abilities on Aaron Monaghan, but with his auburn hair and powerful physique, he’s an Adonis, someone far too tempting for my sensibilities.

Danger stalks the two through the rough and tumble turn-of-the-20th-century mining town. When Aaron’s wolf claims her as his mate, he must rely on all of his wiles to protect Josephine and her incredible secret from the killer’s crosshairs.
