The wolf days of summer are here...Meet Jake Danes of Hudson River—Lone Wolf, avid gamer, extreme sports enthusiast, and surfer. He's spent the last two years roaming free, exploring the world and escaping the dark place his pack had become after betrayal and murder tore them apart. Sure, life changed back home, but Jake's having way too much fun to return—riding the waves in Monterrey and living out of a van. It's the perfect life, one he never wants to give up, no matter how many calls he's fielding from his big brother...then he catches her scent.Mimi Chase wanted one perfect year. Time away from pack politics and her mother's matchmaking efforts. Ever since her big brother settled into mating with a healer, Mimi's mom seems to have gone into overdrive—throwing her at every eligible male in the pack. Choosing to roam seemed the best option, and California the ideal location to get away from everything pack related. Her plans for art classes, yoga on the beach, maybe a cooking lesson or two while living a hippy dippy lifestyle are all she cares about...until another wolf butts into her every activity. Doesn't he know the rules?Lone Wolves aren't supposed to form relationships, so why doesn't he catch a hint? Worse, why isn't she working harder to make sure he does?
