At the time, he wasn't counting on meeting Doctor Dimitri Orlov. Dimitri is beautiful, intelligent and fiercely decisive. He's everything Elliot could ever want in a partner. But despite the attraction between them, Dimitri can't seem to stand Elliot. Half the time, they're at each other's throats, and the other half they want to tear their clothes off.

Besides, it's never a good idea for a werewolf to enter a relationship with someone who isn't his mate. When they get snowed in, the tension between them finally explodes, and the heat is strong enough to melt away any kind of ice. But things are never that simple for Elliot and Dimitri. A threat is stirring in the shadows, and a distant power awakens in Dimitri's heart. What will these new tidings bring for the unlikely couple? less
