Jared Todd has come home — back to small-town Roscoe, Colorado — to help out with the family ranch. He wasn't looking for a relationship, not with a father who wouldn't understand and neighbors who gossiped too much. He certainly didn't plan to end up mated to the coyote-man from his erotic dreams. He had no idea the man was real. Or that his name is Adam and they've already met.
"Adam" is a coyote shape-shifter and Protector of the local pack. When he's shot by Jared's father, the two men discover the truth of their connection.
