Scott Marsh is on the run from Dicun, the powerful coyote shifter who kidnapped him. But Scott is weak and tired after being abused for so long. He doesn't expect to get away, or to be rescued by Elric, a gorgeous hawk shifter with powers over the wind.
Though Scott has never seen this man before, something inside of him calls out to Elric. There's nowhere in the world Scott feels safer than in Elric's arms.
Elric recognizes his mate, especially considering his archenemy Dicun murdered Scott in their past lives because of his hate for Elric, and his lust for Scott. Now Elric has his mate back, and he vows to protect him at all costs. He will not have the love of his life die in his arms a second time. But when Scott is nearly taken and killed in another attack, and Elric discovers the man is pregnant, he must make a terrible choice.
After the tantalizingly short preview of Scott's story at the end of the previous book, this sixth volume in the increasingly interesting 'Werewolves of Willow Lake' series hit the ground running, so to speak. Scott is one of the kidnapped omega wolves, except, unlike Teddy in the previous book, he is not the kidnapper's mate. The coyote shifter is, in fact, a villain of the highest degree, and I couldn't wait for him to be punished for the evil he did before he, like the mysterious wolf brothers and the mountain lion, was put into a centuries-long sleep.
Now that Scott has escaped Dicun, the dastardly coyote, his only hope is to make it back to his pack. Except – he is curiously attracted to the hawk shifter who rescued him. The trust may not be immediate, but once he understands that Elric is his mate from a previous life, he settles in quite quickly. But his ordeal is far from over.
Elric has seen Scott die at Dicon's hand just before his old life ended. He is overjoyed that he found him again, and is prepared to do anything to keep the man safe this time. Even live with a wolf pack. Not that they even make it that far before Dicun attacks again and Elric has to make a tough choice. As is traditional for hunky alphas, he needs to defeat his nemesis before he can ride off into the sunset with a pregnant Scott. Talk about motivation!
If you like stories with reunions that span a few lifetimes and a love that lasts for thousands of years, if you like reading about men who need to learn to trust a physically more powerful partner (despite having been abused before), and if you're looking for more revelations about the "godlike" shifters' past, then you will probably like this novella.
