Being an omega wolf was never Cole Weathers's choice. He doesn't have a submissive bone in his body, and taking orders just isn't his thing. When given an ultimatum from his overbearing father, he leaves the only home he's ever known to experience life as he always wanted to, free from his father's hatred. Applying for a job leads Cole right to his mate, Josef Bayer. Not that he doesn't want a mate. He just doesn't want to bring anyone into his crazy family life. He disguises his scent from Josef, feeling the other man is better off, but his plan backfires. Josef can't explain his attraction to Cole, but it's driving him crazy. When he discovers Cole's deception, he doesn't know if he should be relieved or angry for being lied to, but all that is forgotten when a crazed alpha threatens Cole. Now Josef must rely on his friends to help him save the man he loves.
