The youngest Steinsson is missing, and Durai's pride has spread out into Muncho Lake Provincial Park in search of him. Just when the pride is more splintered than they have ever been, a group of new arrivals makes things a little more complicated…
Rabi'a Asher never wanted a mate of her own. She has a daughter, and a purpose among her people, and that's just fine with her. Unfortunately, fate doesn't agree. Placed in unfamiliar and dangerous territory, she's torn between two men who are both determined to have her -- and each other.
Only, Rabi'a isn't going to sit down and let any man determine her future. She has claws of her own, and Tigris Sheer Ma'at and Leo Rais Steinsson are about to feel them.
