Jamie is human and he's a wolf. Werewolves aren't just some supernatural fairytale. They are a living breathing part of society. Once they hid their true natures, but now they are out and proud. Wolves are an accepted part of society, but even with all the new laws, it's not easy.

Race relations made society complicated enough, then came the gay rights movement adding a whole new dimension to the struggle for acceptance. Add a new species to the list and you have a whole different world

Rob is a cop and has just passed his thirtieth birthday, being promoted to a special police task force specializing in wolf / human cases. He sees it all. The seedy underbelly of city life, the fights, the murders, and the parts of human / wolf interaction that people would rather ignore. He meets a young man, Jamie, at a club and embarks on the hottest one night stand of his life. Little does he know that his lover is a shifter. He has no worries with wolves, but interspecies relationships are not on his to-do list.

When a case involving kidnappings of young werewolves lands on Rob's desk the ugly face of the werewolf sex trade is something he has to deal with. With Jamie seemingly at the centre of it all can Rob push past his prejudices and keep his lover alive?

My Review

What can I say about this book apart from OMFG...... this story blew me away!! I loved the world that was painted, I loved that shifter were out and I loved that the world was as realistic as I think it could have been. The story was exciting and suspenseful and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I didn't just read this book I devoured it!! Jamie and Rob where explosive together and had just enough tension between them to keep it really interesting. this is the first book in a series, and if this is the bench mark, its going to be a unmissable set of books. I for one will be getting book 2 very soon, and the only reason I have not bought it yet is that I have some other thing I need to read and if I buy it now I will have to read it now and I really want to read it!!
