Cat shifter Ty is on the run from a vicious and dangerous man. Ty’s travelled far and is living in his car. Worse, he’s pregnant, and his one last hope lies in Riley Winter. One night, no strings attached—that was the deal. But Ty’s desperate and wants the best for his baby. Ty knows he didn’t imagine the undeniable spark between Riley and him, but can he convince Riley they belong together?
Dominant wolf Riley is the one Winter brother who believes no man can tie him down. Lately, though, he’s been obsessed with one sexy tabby shifter. When he sees Ty back in the Howling Wolf bar, knocked-up and claiming the baby’s his, Riley smells trouble. Riley’s been hurt before and has experienced loss. He’s far from ready to make a commitment again, but his protective instincts are riled when Ty is hurt.
Now, Riley intends to make Ty his and never let him go.
I was really anticipating Riley's story in the 'Howling Wolf' series. He is the third brother and the one I know the least about except for the baby brother, Harris. Ty is a cat shifter and pregnant to boot so this story is already different from the previous two installments. I can't wait to see what a dog and a cat can do to each other!
Ty and Riley had a seriously hot night not too long ago and even though they both felt severe emotions for the other, they lied about having them the next day and each went on their own way. Now Ty is back, pregnant, and he's got a psycho werelion after him. Riley is terrified of being a father because of a painful moment in his past, but he and Ty both acknowledge they are mates and it's time to step up the adulting.
I was somewhat disappointed to discover the similarities in this story to the previous two novellas. Skull, the psychotic werelion who wants Ty, has sent his little half brother, Dill, a bobcat shifter, into town to make friends with Ty and lure him away. Dill has come to like Ty and doesn't want to do this but Skull has been emotionally, verbally, and physically abusing him for so long that he doesn't see any other options. Riley and his brothers come to the rescue along with their mates and no harm comes to Ty or the baby.
It was really good to get a glimpse under the teasing, joking, mask that Riley has worn for so long and to understand why. He and Ty are very sweet and gentle together and overall this was an enjoyable read. I'm looking forward to Harris's story although I'm already fairly certain I know who his mate is. It will still be fun to finish this series that revolves around these brothers.
