Merle isn’t the wolf he was before, and who could blame him? He was sold to the labs, and then Tom, Alpha Erskine’s second, kidnapped and tortured him, leaving him for dead. Merle’s body has been healed, but his mind hasn’t, and he’s struggling with everyday life and nightmares. Add to that an overbearing mother, and his life is a mess.
Nootaw left his Wendigo tribe a year before, but even though he hasn’t hurt anyone since then, people still regard him with fear and disgust. Not even moving to Gillham changed that, but he’s use to it by now. When Nootaw is asked to help find Merle, he doesn’t expect Merle to take a sniff at him and tell him they’re mates. Nootaw isn’t sure what to do with Merle, because everyone knows Wendigoes don’t have mates.
Merle insists on giving Nootaw a chance, even though he might lose his mother over it. Then Nootaw disappears, reappearing with someone Merle hadn’t expected. Will Merle be able to leave his nightmares behind and be the man Nootaw needs him to be? And will Nootaw manage to get used to a life he’d never thought he could have?

Reviewer: Lisa
Review: Each book in the Gillham Pack collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order.
Wendigo’s are known to be man eaters, most don’t understand that they don’t have to eat people but can survive on animals. Most of them don’t want to try it though, but Nootaw and his brother were the exception. His brother had never eaten a human before but Nootaw had. Now he was considered a monster.
Merle has been kidnapped not once but twice, and he was having nightmares from it. Not to mention his family and friends were trying too hard to help him. His mother was especially suffocating him by it. So when he finds out that his mate is Nootaw things go crazy. He knows it will be hard but they can get by it. Then his nightmares are coming for him in the name of Tom.
I love the way all the feelings they felt were involved in this story. I can’t wait to read the next story.
I would definitely recommend reading this book.
