One fierce alpha. One reluctant mate. A love that was meant to be.

Noah has always been the quiet, steady presence in his pack. But his peaceful life is upended when his pack hosts the regional summit, bringing packs from across the country to his doorstep—and with them, Jackson, the boy who saved his life years ago.

Jackson is no longer the impulsive young wolf who shielded Noah from danger. Now the confident and determined future alpha of his pack, Jackson has grown into his role as a leader. But there’s one thing his wolf has never forgotten: the moment it imprinted on Noah all those years ago.

When pack tensions flare and old rivalries threaten to derail the summit, Jackson is ready to do whatever it takes to protect Noah, even if it means exposing his long-held secret. But Noah isn’t sure he’s ready to be anyone’s mate—especially not the enigmatic, commanding wolf who’s never left his thoughts.

With alliances crumbling and danger closing in, Noah and Jackson must decide if the bond between them is strong enough to overcome fear, duty, and the shadows of the past.

Noah is the fourth book in the Pecan Pines series.
