Lucy Benton, daughter of the Pack Benton wolf alpha, knows there's only one man for her. Beau. He's gentle and strong, and she just can't seem to stay away from him. Training horses at his ranch was her way to get his attention, but it's been two years and nothing has happened between them. What is going on? Beau Sampson can't live without Lucy. She's his fated mate and he doesn't care that she's a wolf and he's a bear. All he knows is that he's not letting her go. But he's too shy to give her a reason to stay until she throws the saddle on him. And, oh, what a fantastic bucking ride it is.The problem is her father, the oldest alpha in the region who will do anything for money and power, just made a deal with the devil-a black magic wolf who's taken Lucy for his bride. He knows he can break the wild filly of her rowdy spirit. Now the race is on. Lucy must fight to stay alive and pray her bear shows up before she's bonded into a loveless mating with a soulless monster who has no idea what he just signed up for.
