Gillian Whitford is the darling of the Willow Bend Pack;
everyone loves and works to protect their healer
apprentice. Everyone but Owen Chase, that is, he seems
determined to give her a hard time. Could it be that he
doesn't want to deal with a WOLF CLAIM?
Owen is the pack's hunter and a loner by his calling, as
well as his nature. He spends most of his time on the
borders of their land patrolling there and even with the
new Alpha he still tends to wander away. When the Hudson
River pack requests a fill-in healer, Gillian is chosen to
go and help. Despite Owen's forbidding her to go she
volunteers and the new Alpha sends him along to protect
her, but when the Alpha of the Hudson River pack makes a
play for Gillian, he is ready to go to war. Is it because
she's pack or because she's his?
WOLF CLAIM takes us back to author Heather Long's
Wolves of
Willow Bend giving us more action and intrigue in this
fascinating world. Gillian is a sweetheart who has always
had feelings for the rough and tough Owen but until now he
has refused any enticements. Now that Gillian is stepping
away, with the possibility of being claimed by another he
decides to step up. Twice he comes close to challenging
Alpha's to protect her, one being Mason, his new Alpha.
This should give everyone a good hint at what he really
feels but he is a typical male and doesn't listen to his
heart until it's almost too late. I liked Brett from the
other pack wouldn't mind reading a book about him some
day.
The mystery they confront is intriguing but nothing
compares to the revelation that comes out of this couple
giving into the attraction they feel for each other. WOLF
CLAIM is a stand alone but after reading it I can
guarantee
that you will want to get the other two and catch up with
this intriguing pack. Ms. Long knows how to bring all the
characters to life and throw in enough twists and turns to
keep the readers just off balance enough to enjoy the
ride.
I loved WOLF CLAIM and of course am looking so forward to
the
next in the series or anything else from Ms. Long. It's on
my TRA shelf with room for more.
Gillian Whitford, darling of Willow Bend, brings out the
protective instincts in all the dominants, but none more
so
than Owen Chase, the pack’s Hunter. A loner by nature and
calling, Owen spends less time with his pack mates and
more
time on the borders of their land. Not even the change in
the Alpha and the swearing of a new oath kept him around
long.
Winds of change still drift through Willow Bend as they
adjust to their new Alpha. When the Hudson River pack
requests a fill-in healer to replace their own, Gillian,
journeymen apprentice to their Pack healer, is the obvious
choice to help. Owen forbids her to accept, but the sweet
natured wolf rebukes his selfishness and volunteers
anyway.
Risking a challenge, Owen faces off against his Alpha to
appeal her decision and finds himself charged with her
safety. Now, the loner will be escorting one of his pack’s
most precious into foreign lands. He’s all that stands
between her and a dozen potential threats…and if he
doesn’t
stake his claim, he may lose more than his heart.
