James Barnet is an Alpha who is running out of time.
Working as a ranch hand, he's squandered his last penny through gambling, all to cover his dying sister's mounting medical bills. With desperation gnawing at him, a chance emerges ? a job offer to abduct local Omega veterinarian Stephen Elijah.
Now he's got 24 hours to travel from Lunarville to Timberwood Howls. Failure would condemn his sister to death.
James will do it. He has to.
No matter how pretty Stephen looks.
Or how much the Alpha inside him wants to claim the Omega as his own.
Will their choices seal their fate, or do greater forces play their hand? Can they survive?
