Major Jesse Moore, brother of Wyoming Pack Alpha, has been chasing some bad guys all the way to Iowa. He doesn't believe in coincidence and wonders about what led these guys to this location. He was planning a trip to this state to check his new sister-in-law's long lost cousin Maria Garibaldi. Strange things have led him on this WOLF QUEST. There is no time for introductions as he breaks open her door ... and finds one man out cold and the other struggling to get out from underneath the night gowned beauty. Jesse is in love.

Maria Garibaldi, is an exotic animal vet who runs a sanctuary. She's had a little trouble with the neighbors but this takes the cake. She has managed to take down the two who were breaking in to turn and find another. This one she doesn't think she will be able to take down with her martial arts. And when he starts talking magic, Venifucus and shifters she's worried that she subdued the wrong men.

On top of everything she finds that one of the animals that was brought to her is in fact a grizzly shifter, she is apologetic and starts to at least hear what Jesse is telling her. Even if she can only half believe that she is a descendent of a Dryad and possibly more, with magic at her fingertips. As they travel toward the heart of an unexplained storm, her magic grows as does her feelings for the ex-Special Forces shifter that had come to disrupt her perfectly ordered life. Something she would have to find a way to thank him for someday.

WOLF QUEST is the magical, action packed and steamy sequel to Wolf Hills. Maria is feisty, not about to stand around waiting to be rescued and will do what she must for those she cares about. Jesse is an alpha in his own right but leads his pack of Special Forces, military shifters known as the Wraiths, while his younger brother is pack alpha. This sexy, shifter has his head on right and the woman who is his perfect match is quick and learns her craft so she is an asset to him. I loved the dynamic of everyone involved including the camaraderie of the team, other shifters and even the vampire Marco who helps the group fight the evil.

Author Bianca D'Arc never disappoints her readers by throwing out less than quality work. WOLF QUEST is definitely one worth reading and keeping.
