Extinct — Nancy Adams

Theo's sole purpose for the last ninety-eight years was to protect his wolf. That changed the moment he met Drew and the wolf called ‘Mate'.

Carrying the soul of an extinct wolf alongside your own isn't easy. Swapping into said wolf is even harder. Ask Theo Grey -- he's been doing it for ninety-eight years. Yet, after surviving two world wars, witnessing the space race and patiently enduring the eighties, you'd think he'd have seen it all, but nothing could have prepared him for meeting Tofino's new vet, Drew O'Bannion and according to the wolf, his mate.

Drew loves her dog, sleeping in and coffee. She also loves being a vet. The main reason behind her accepting the veterinarian practice offered to her from a family friend. Hoping for a slower pace at life Tofino seemed the ideal spot. What she didn't expect was Officer Theo Grey. Theo is tall, dark and drop dead gorgeous, a definite 10 on the ‘wow' scale. Regardless of his looks, there is more to Theo, there is her unexpected attraction for him. It's unnerving and completely out of character for her, but she is able to match Theo's hungry kiss, for hungry kiss.

With their desire growing at an alarming rate and the threat of an unknown shooter roaming the woods of the coastal town, Theo must face the ultimate decision -- let Drew go for her own safety or claim his mate for all time.
