Stone McKie has come back to the Black Hills, the only place he's ever felt at home. He never expected to find a mate waiting, or that the creative omega would be terrified of him. Josh was raised believing that he wasn't worth anything other than being a whipping boy for more dominant wolves. The thought of being the mate to a big, burly tattoo artist is too terrifying to contemplate, but he can't seem to keep his distance. When a threat from Josh's past catches up to him, he has to turn to the one man who scares him for protection. Can Josh get past his fears and accept the love he desperately craves? Will Stone have to leave the one place he's ever felt at home, to follow his mate?
