About This Book
What happens when a romance novelist accidentally gets her werewolf mythology exactly right? For Emma Gavin, it means a very real New York pack showing up to find out who talked. For Aiden Wallace, the alpha's son sent to investigate, it means getting dangerously close to a woman who was supposed to be just a loose end to tie up. The tension here runs on two tracks at once — a secret that could upend an entire hidden world, and an attraction neither of them can afford to act on. The stakes feel surprisingly personal for a paranormal setup.
Thompson writes with a light, confident touch that keeps the pages turning without weighing the story down. Her gift is balancing the absurd premise against genuine warmth — the humor lands because the characters earn it, not because the book is winking at itself. The Manhattan setting adds texture without becoming a postcard, and the pack dynamics give the romance a wider world to breathe in. Readers who like their paranormal romance fun but not frivolous will find this a satisfying start to the series.
