Sheriff Derek Cox was no ordinary Alpha... He liked his whiskey neat, his justice swift and unyielding, and desired nothing more than an Omega who embodied poise and elegance. Derek was on track to marry a fine Omega from his hometown of Clancy, and all he had to do was bring in the wanted Omega outlaw, Casey Cullen. However, when he finally caught up to Casey, he was thrown off guard by the charming and beguiling Omega, who proved to be a slippery prey always one step ahead. As he chased Casey through the unforgiving wilderness, Cox faced danger at every turn, from treacherous mountain passes to raging rivers and bandits lying in wait. But he was determined to see justice served, no matter the cost. With each passing day, Cox found himself drawn deeper into Casey's web, his heart torn between his duty as Sheriff and his growing feelings for the charismatic Omega. And when Casey's true motives were revealed, Cox was forced to confront his own beliefs about justice and the price of redemption. Will Derke be able to do his duty and bring Casey to justice? Or will the fire rage between them burn them both alive?
