The Ugly Wolfling — Tedi Sinclair

William Farris is an average werewolf from bad stock. When he shifts into his wolf form, he looks more like a mutt than a pedigree. On a mission from his alpha, he gets picked up by the dogcatcher. To add insult to his already-fragile psyche, he gets adopted almost on the spot. William would curl up and die from utter humiliation if it wasn't his fated mate who adopted him. Aiden McGrath isn't looking for love. He is guarding his heart from his family, from suitors, and anything else that could possibly love him. When a scruffy dog weasels its way into his heart, Aiden is blindsided by the emotional onslaught, especially after the dog runs away. William has to find a way into Aiden's life as a man instead of a pet, but to do so William has to tear down the walls Aiden erected after his lover's betrayal.
