Book Blurb

Hearing that his ex-best friend is getting married might be the only thing that can lead Andy back to his wolf pack deep in the Colorado mountains. He's a city wolf now, leaving behind the awkward, skinny teenage geek he was once upon a time. All he wants to do is see Levi one last time, and maybe lament what might have been between them if Levi had been brave enough to leave the pack with Andy all those years ago.

Levi has been a good soldier in his Alpha's army, the second-in-command for several years. Seeing Andy again reminds Levi how he's toed the line, and how all he's gotten for it is a lonely life. He's not sure why Andy came back, and at first he's not even happy about it. Their need for each other runs deep and strong, though, and Levi has to wonder what he would do for Andy if the man would just ask him one more time.

First edition published by Torquere Press, October 2015.

Book Review

In this world of the ‘Odd Wolf Out’, werewolf pack rules are more cruel toward those perceived as weaker than in many other books of the genre. Omegas exist to be pack whipping boys, and if they don’t accept their fate (which seems rare enough) they have no other choice but to leave. This is the situation Andy finds himself in, and at age seventeen he makes a stand. Never mind he is leaving Levi, his mate, behind - he and his two triplet brothers will not stick around to be beaten up. But when he hears that Levi is getting married, over a decade later, he can’t resist and returns. What follows is a story filled with anger, desperate hop for things to be different, and an ultimate solution neither Andy nor Levi dared believe in.

Andy has changed. He is no longer a weakling, and he is not afraid of confronting the members of the pack he used to be a member of. He is still fiendishly clever and a geek par excellence, but he is no weakling. A personal trainer and years of working out have made sure he can stand up for himself – except when there is foul play. But Andy is determined to get over whatever obstacles some idiots are putting in his way, and I cheered him along all the way.

Levi has been a good pack member, has become the new alpha’s second in command, and is more lonely than he will admit. Seeing Andy again makes him realize what he has lost by not following his mate years ago, and he slowly begins to realize that a second breakup is not in the cards. The bond had grown into a love that runs deep enough for him to consider the unthinkable – leaving the pack with Andy. If his mate wants him, that is, and if he can survive the attempt on his life that almost kills him.

If you like werewolf stories with all their individual world rules, if you enjoy finding out about men who are destined to be together despite what “the rules” say, and if you’re looking for a suspenseful read that is filled with yearning and dealing with the past, hen you will probably like this novella.
