All his life his family and friends have protected him from those who would have seen him tagged and caged like an animal. Or worse, exterminated. Now his secret makes earth mage Evan Forester the perfect choice for this mission. Find the Wolves and convince them to form an alliance with the mage world. But what he finds among the Wolves is more than he ever dreamed possible. The very nature he is forced to subdue and hide, they welcome and celebrate. Even more, among these people he finds the one his soul calls "mate." But if the alliance fails he will be forced to choose between the place he calls home and the one woman he loves and who loves all that he is, wolf and man.
