The same wound which was caused by him only a week ago. "And I mean every word I say." His warmth-radiating fingers on her jaws burnt her skin.

The Sarah Sauders Story Continuing, Book 2 The story of the wolf who had to run away from an Alpha, only to fall into the hands of another. "I wasn't going to stay in that place. Living like I was dead. Without feeling it, without really showing myself. Living as a submissive for an Alpha who was already dead to me. That wasn't like me. I was dominant, as dominant as they. One of the first things I learned was that wolves have an intuitive knowledge of order amidst chaos and they have the ability to change, intact. I ran away. That was my way of changing. One dark night, I left it all behind. I'd rather live out there as a loner than live in a pack like that. And that day I broke free. At least that's what I thought... Until I heard that howl rip through my being."

Yet the night he encounters a mysterious—and gorgeous—widow who doesn’t immediately fall under his seductive spell, Ash realizes he wants her more than he’s ever wanted another woman.

But when Ash kisses her, all of her plans and promises are turned upside down. A passion stronger than either Ash or Violet could imagine envelops them both one night—and that night changes everything. As old heartbreaks threaten to tear the couple apart, both must find the courage to see that, of all things, love is worth a second chance."
