Jade can't seem to catch a break. Her last boyfriend was a looser who took her bank account for a joy ride leaving her with a heap of debt. Now, the flower shop where she works has been sold and more likely than not she's going to have to find another job. Her life is in turmoil and having to go home and see her sisters happy with their new mates is almost more than she can stomach. Jade isn't impressed with the handsome new owner, Quentin Witt. The man is too blind to see that that girlfriend of his isn't nice to his little girl, and the little girl is terrified of the woman and her uncle. It is time to go, to move on and start over. Quentin can't let that happen. There is something about Jade that sets his blood on fire---they're mates. He knows about her kind and that she's a wolf. He has to stop her from leaving, but Jade has no time for boyfriends or mates. The last one took more than she had to give. Quentin's brother is a wolf and his so-called girlfriend, Debra, is his brother's mate. Those two are teamed together to swindle Quentin out of a good deal of money. But when their plans backfire, Debra resorts to more desperate measures. Now, they're all in danger. Jade's past has returned to destroy them all, and he has targeted Quentin's little girl, Angie, to be the first to die....
