All Noel Dane wants is to escape into his new life in Silver Creek. He has family and friends in this perfect life but things become a little complicated when he meets his mate, his very human mate. Beau Elliot is everything Noel ever wanted, caring, loving, and understanding. It's love at first sight, but Noel still can't find the courage to tell Beau he's a wolf shifter. He knows he has to but he doesn't want to lose the one good thing to come into his life in a long time. No matter how far a person can run, they can never truly escape their past, and Noel has found that out the hard way. Beau is abducted by the same man responsible for Noel's father's death. Noel must now learn to stand up for himself and fight or again be forced to watch someone else he loves die.
