Wolf shifter Gethin Lloyd still bears the scars from the mental and physical abuse he suffered at the hands of his old pack beta Robert Wilkes. After killing his abuser, Gethin hoped he'd finally be free of the torment that lives on inside his mind, but the nightmares continue to grow stronger. When he meets his mate, the pull to be with him is difficult to resist, but he doesn't want the sweet human man tainted by the filth that covers his skin.
Dewi Powell is haunted by memories of his first and only love, Toby ― a wolf shifter who walked out on him three months ago without as much as a goodbye. Still heartbroken, the last thing he wants or needs is to be thrust into another serious relationship, especially with another shifter, but when he meets Gethin and learns of their bond, his desire for the wolf overrides common sense. However, Gethin is a scarred and broken man and if they are to have a future together, Dewi must help his mate not only to live in the present, but to stop reliving the horrors of the past.
