When she meets Parker Hoyt and he spikes her temperature into the red zone, she finally learns the truth. But Parker is everything Trixie hates in a man, and being with him is the last thing she wants.

Parker Hoyt has struggled to fit into the Winter Valley Pack for years. Searching for the true mate he discovered as a teen has been a bust, and he's destined to be a lone wolf, until he stumbles upon Trixie at his hometown diner. Suddenly his fancy cars and women mean nothing as he tries to woo the waitress he’d claimed years ago. But she's not impressed, and he’ll have to prove he's the man she deserves.
