Synopsis
Miguel Garcia and Luis Rodriguez have been best friends all their lives.
For the last year, they’ve been hiding the fact that they’re also
destined mates. When Luis’s family finds out, they kick him out.
Miguel’s family would keep them… except their alpha has been known to be
downright violent against gay wolves.
With the help of Miguel’s mother, they set out to find a pack that will accept them. They run into more that a few obstacles before they end up in Denver, at the national wolf headquarters, meeting the alpha prime. They’re stunned to find, not only offers to join more than one pack, but that their struggle can shine light on a bigger problem–and make things better for LGBT wolves across the country.

Review
There was such a sweetness to this story, even
with its underlying angst, that made it easy to read. Although it was short and
different from the other books in the series, the author's writing and her style
stayed the same.
Right from the start, I was rooting for these
two young boys. Each stage of their journey was a little more heartbreaking
especially when each rejection broke down that hope they held inside them a
little more. But it was real, even if it was about wolf shifters because it’s a
story that has happened to real life boys before. Being kicked out, having to
find a home, but being rejected over and over. This just has that
happy ending that we want all of the kids kicked out for being gay to find.
There isn’t much else I can say without giving
too much away. Just read the story because it’s beautiful and sweet and needs
to be read.
