This story picks up where Liam left off. Tommy had been badly beaten by his Alpha but rescued by his brother Declan, Declan's mate Liam and Ben, the Alpha of the Atherton Pack. Ben had been working to remove the rogue Alpha but it was a little too late for Tommy. 
 When Ben and Tommy meet for the first time, while Tommy is unconscious from his injuries, it is clear that the two are fated to be mates. However Ben needs to fight his instant urge to look after Tommy and allow him to go home into the care of his brother. 
 The story shows how their romance develops slowly while Tommy recovers from the physical and emotional impacts of his assault. 
 I quite enjoyed this shifter story and liked the fact that most time is spent in human form. The only part I find a bit strange is the male pregnancy part. Whenever I read of this, I find it hard to just accept it as part of the story - I know I should be suspending reality given it is a book about shifters but mpreg always seems so odd to me.
