Stone's Throw

Waiting is always the hardest part…

Second in command of the blood-bound pack, Stone has always put his leader first, but when he discovers a profound attraction to a human on their Grand Canyon river trip, he's torn between loyalty and what he's desperately wanted his entire life: a mate. Determined to keep his needs locked down until his leader can claim his mate, Stone discovers anticipation can quickly become overwhelming.

Due to a deceitful and manipulative boyfriend, Loren ends up with a non-refundable ticket for the river trip. To prove to his ex and himself that he's not a coward, he decides to go on the adventure holiday but quickly ends up terrified. When Stone offers comfort and kindness, Loren discovers not only a man he can trust, but also a man who brings out a side of himself he never thought existed.

Lust and longing make resisting their compulsion to mate next to impossible, but when Stone accidentally tastes his mate's blood, he ends up caught between loyalty to his pack leader and a primal attraction to his human mate. When push comes to shove, will Stone's self-control be stronger than his urges, or will he destroy the very foundation of their pack just to complete his union with Loren?
