Ryland is content with his life. His brother is finally safe, and they can both settle down in Rosewood. The only thorn left in Ryland's side is Fulton and his auctions, but the pack is working on stopping him. Mercer knew Ryland was his mate as soon as he met him, but so far, he hasn't found the right moment to tell him. He has finally found a home in Rosewood after drifting for so long, but while his life is here, Ryland's isn't. Or maybe, it is. Ryland isn't going anywhere now that he has Pembroke back, and when he and Mercer end up locked in a closet and Mercer confesses Ryland is his mate, he's surprised but ready to give it a go. Can he convince Mercer that he isn't leaving? And together with the pack, can they finally close Fulton's operation and make him pay for everything he did to Pembroke and so many other shifters?
