Gideon MacInnes is next in line, among Scottish werewolves, to be the guardian of the Stone of Destiny, but he wants to see the world first. In northern New York, he's attacked by mercenary werewolves hired by his treacherous cousin, Malachi. Wounded and near death, Gideon flees to the doorstep of Carly Silver, who takes in the sad-looking animal and nurses it to health. When she wakes, the wolf has become a man. Carly reacts well, and her attraction to Gideon is immediate, but her life is in danger from the werewolf following Gideon. Carly's job as the owner of a book store specializing in romances won't go unappreciated. Some readers will want more pack dynamics and supernatural elements, but fans of straightup romance looking for a little extra something will be bitten. (May)
