Caitlin Spring wants nothing more than to become a doctor, but as she completes her junior year of pre-med and prepares for an intensive summer of studying, her grandfather’s unexpected death turns all her well-laid plans to dust. She’s devastated over the loss and shocked to find that she’s inherited his life’s work—ownership of the Spring Wildlife Sanctuary. 

When Caitlin treks to the wide expanse of the Montana sanctuary, she’s forced to confront the domineering ways of her childhood crush, the alpha werewolf her grandfather left in charge, Jake Blackwell. As an eight-year-old who’d lost her parents in a tragic accident, Jake had seemed like a knight in shining armor, ready to slay her nightmares. 

Fourteen years later, he’s grown into a devil-be-damned, sexy as hell dream. But, although the years may have turned his princely good looks into matured ruggedness, he’s become deeply protective of the sanctuary and suspicious of any outsider interference, including Caitlin. 

Now, as the sanctuary debt mounts, Caitlin must make the difficult decision to uphold her grandfather’s legacy and break through the walls Jake’s erected around his lone wolf heart or let it all go to follow her life’s dream of medicine—alone.
