I wasn't able to read this book in time to give a proper review.

The long running Heart of the Wolf series continues with a fun and heartwarming love story between two lovers that find one another quite by accident after missing their chance many years before. Fans of the series will recognize many of these characters and if you enjoy this author’s work in general you will realize right away that this is a more direct follow-up to the previous novel in her Heart of the Jaguar series where we finally got a cross-over between the two. Now that the wolf and jaguar-shifters have learned of one another the world will never be the same, but I have to tell you I am thrilled by that and was a big proponent of that from the beginning. Owen and Candice have a few challenges to face in their pursuit of happiness but they are by no means faced with enough to keep them apart as they slowly begin to come to love one another. Owen arrives on Candice’s doorstep, sent by her uncle to get her to accept her inheritance or forfeit her claim on it once and for all, but he quickly discovers that she is the she-wolf of his dreams. Candice has been living an isolated life, making money from her writing and learning as she goes how to be a wolf in a world where she never knew werewolves even existed until an unlucky encounter with a wolf pup many years earlier left her with an unfortunate side effect. Together they travel to Owen’s pack and Candice learn more about not only being a wolf, but also how nice it is to be part of a pack, how to trust in those around her, and ultimately how to love the mate of her heart now that she has found him. I enjoyed this story, and LOVED the little twists and turns thrown in along the way, a few of which even surprised me, which is not so easy to do after having read all of the stories in this series. Always fresh and fun, Terry manages to keep her writing interesting for readers and sweet while still throwing in enough drama and danger to give her couples a battle to work through together. I am looking forward to seeing who falls in love next and hope we stay with this little white wolf pack for a little while before jumping to one of the other packs, but, if not, I hold out hope we will come back to everyone so we can see more of Candice and Owen, and maybe see the pups as they grow. Another magical read with heart, sweetness, and passion to keep the dark of winter at bay on a cold snowy night.

I really enjoyed this book! It’s different than other shifter stories I’ve read. I liked that the relationship between the two characters slowly built up and wasn’t an insta love kind of relationship. We had enough history and back story to understand everyone’s feelings. I liked that Candice and Owen cared so much about others and wanted to help even at the risk of exposing theirselves. I loved that we found out about her family and their secrets too. I would love to read more of Candice and Owens story and of all the other members of their pack and even Candice’s uncle.

Very steamy scenes. Looking forward to reading more books from this author.

You don't want to know how much I hated this book. If you're curious, you can click the link.

This was one that I really enjoyed. I love shifter romances in general but I had already read a bit about some of these wolves so it was neat meeting up with them again. Owen's firm is hired to search for a missing niece. Candice is the niece but because of an encounter with a nippy shifter wolf cub, she left her life behind and moved to seclusion. Their meeting and then her meeting of the pack was good. I really like those little pups the artic wolves have. Too cute.
I hated that Candice had to miss so much of what had been her life. It was so sad that because of what happened she missed when her parents needed her. I wasn't sure I was going to like her uncle and then that whole thing just cracked me up! The author did a great job of adding characters you meet in her previous books and then just the situations the characters are put in. So great! I hope to read more about Owen's packmates in the near future cause I want some happily ever afters for them.
It was a 4/5 for me. I do so enjoy these books!

Thank you to the publisher for the review copy of this book. I received this book in exchange for an honest review and the opinions stated above are 100% mine.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas is the first book in the White Wolf series by Terry Spear, but is connected to the other paranormal romance series by Spear. Romance writer Candice Mayfair never missed a deadline in her life—until the playful bite of a werewolf puppy accidentally turns her into an Arctic wolf shifter. Talk about a life-changing event! Candice is at the end of her rope with the unpredictable shifting, a strong desire to howl, and the need to vacuum constantly to keep the shedding fur under control. Enter werewolf private investigator Owen Nottingham. Owen has a new mission: convince the pretty she-wolf she needs to join his pack in time for Christmas and be his mate. It’s the only way he can think of to keep her safe.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas is a quick read, and one while very connected to the other books in the series also felt a little more insulated. I liked Candice's character. She is pragmatic and steady- doing what she needs to do to survive without panicking or acting out. Owen is pretty steady and I liked his respect and determination when it came to getting to know Candice. I think the background drama was a little too much, and the developing relationship was almost no longer the focus of the book, although the pair did actually discuss things and act like mature adults for the most part. I felt like the hard stuff (Candice's coming to terms with being a werewolf as an example) and skipped over. It was a good, but not extraordinary or unexpected read.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas is a better read for me than some of the more recent books in this extended series. It is what fans of the author are looking for and expecting, but nothing more than that.

I'm dreaming of a white wolf Christmas
Just like the one Terry Spear wrote
Where the werewolves glisten and children howlin'
To see the full moon in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white wolf Christmas
With every word that she writes
May your nights be steamy and hot
And may all your Werewolves be white.

Okay enough of me butchering Irving Berlin's masterpiece. Terry Spear's newest Heart of the Wolf novel is the start to a new spinoff. It is also a good starting point for some, while there is a little bit of backstory it's only there so you get to know the characters, this book can be read as a standalone. For those new to Terry Spears this is a great book and a wonderful series. All the guys are strong loyal and devoted. The women are smart and strong, everybody has a bit of baggage they work to deal with and one of my favorite things they don't have sex until they are sure they want each other as mates, they can do other things so there is lots of fun sexual chemistry and tension going on before they make that choice.

Candice Mayfair use to go by a different name until one camping trip and a little nip on the finger by a werewolf pup turned her life upside down. Now Candice is a full time romance writer, writing about shifters. Owen Nottingham and his partners are private investigators who have all been bitten. They uprooted their lives and moved to a place where seeing an arctic wolf wouldn't be conspicuous and became a pack. Ever since moving out of Seattle the business has been internet based until now they finally have an office again and their first big gig is to track down an heiress. Owen tracks her down via an ex-coworker who told him she changed her name to her pen name and moved away.

It's been two years since she first shifted, that first night she thought she dreamed seeing another white wolf. But when the P.I. looking for her shows up at her door she realizes that wolf wasn't a dream he's standing right in front of her. The pup that bit her is part of his pack and he wants her to join the pack and hopefully mate with him, he has been dreaming about her since that night they saw each other. Owen also wants to help her get her inheritance, she didn't even realize her parents left her anything considering she thought they disowned her. But when another P.I. claims he found the real Clara Hart and Owen and Candice need to rush down to Texas to prove otherwise despite the full moon and Candice isn't in full control over her shift yet. With a call to Dallas they get help from the panther shifter friends there. Once there Candice gets a big surprise about her uncle.

Overall, this was another great shifter romance from Terry Spear.

Ms. Spear has done it again. She has written another fun werewolf romance with an interesting twist on an often told tale. You know, a struggling heroine finds herself a possible heiress, has to compete with someone else to prove she is who she is and finds herself in a pickle because someone does not want her to prove it. Throw in a new way of life, a hero she’s not sure she can trust and finding out she is not a lone wolf after all, totally makes Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas worth taking the time to snuggle down and get comfy with while reading.

I liked Candice and Owen’s romance. I liked how they met, how they courted and the dialogue that flowed back and forth between them. I enjoyed seeing how the heroine fit in with Owen’s small pack and I adored all the kids and their antics. One of the kids is of course extra mischievous and ends up having a special place in Owen and Candice’s heart. Mine too, for that matter.

The conflict is mostly character driven except when it comes to the heroine proving her authenticity. That’s where the external conflict shows up and it provides the suspense and drama needed to keep the plot moving. There are plenty of surprises and interesting twists so this story avoids being a cliché. Ms. Spear sure had a challenge ahead of her in trying to fit all the action in during a rushed but believable timeline that raced towards the final showdown and satisfying conflict resolution. It was well paced, used effective descriptions and engaged my emotions.

I know the title mentions Christmas and that it’s a really big holiday, but the season isn’t the focus of the story. The special time is used more to wrap up the happily ever after as it’s the perfect reason for a celebration of family, of hope, of dreams come true and the start of a wonderful future. It has a feel good, optimistic and charming ending all tied up with a beautiful, big bow of romance and love.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas is a sweet romance that pulls the heartstrings because both Candice and Owen lost the lives they had before the ‘big change’. But, in each other, found happiness and joy for the life that’s ahead of them. I’m quite confident that their happy ever after is actually the beginning of a wonderful new life adventure for both of them. I’m a very content reader.

What a wonderful little Christmas story! While I’m not really up to date on all the wonderfully intersecting stories of this author, I found it incredibly easy to dive in here and enjoy this relatively standalone tale.

Candice was an average woman, writing in her free time until she goes on the camping trip that changes her life. A small bite from what she assumed was a lost puppy ends up transforming her into a werewolf. Being forced to essentially push everyone away has left her alone but eagerly throwing herself into her writing career. Writing about werewolves is suddenly even more relevant.

While Candice was out on her inaugural shift/run, she happened to see another arctic wolf. Said wolf, Owen, has become convinced that this mystery wolf will be his mate and is even more dumbstruck when his most recent case takes him right to her door. The two of them might have a confusing history, but their future is definitely looking good. As long as she can accept the instant introduction of a pack, some estranged family, some conniving con-men/women, and more shifters than she can shake a stick at, they should be fine! As a nice introduction to the world, this book was more than I expected. We meet so many interesting characters that I’m eager to dive right back in.

A fun little story perfect for the Christmas season. Candice was realistic in how she coped with her new reality, and Owen was eager to help. It included shifters we’ve met in past stories and tied it all together with ease. It seemed a little forced and didn’t flow as easy as some of her past books, but I enjoyed it.

Clara Hart also romance author Candice Mayfair while out camping with some friends loves animals and notices a white fluffy puppy. Clara wants to help the puppy unfortunately Clara’s good intentions have her bitten by the puppy instead. Of course the puppy isn’t really a puppy but a wolf pup and Clara notices the change in herself that she has become a wolf herself. Clara also notices another white wolf just like herself across the river. Two years later the white wolf that Clara had met turns out to be Owen Nottingham Arctic wolf and private investigator looking for a Ms. Clara Hart. Will Owen find her and what happens when he finds her will he be able to keep his attraction to her at bay or will his attraction to Clara cause more trouble than it’s worth especially when she finds out that he’s a wolf shifter?
I always have enjoyed paranormal romance and Ms. Terry Spear always writes such good stories that I couldn’t resist reading this book. Ms. Spear paints everything so vividly not only places come alive but the characters are nicely drawn out. Of course the book cover helped me get a clearer picture of what Owen would look like and that wasn’t how I pictured him at all maybe it’s the name that made me think of a big jolly slightly overweight guy instead of a hot handsome guy. Even the aspect of how the protagonists become wolf shifters are easily explained making me want more stories of all of them.
Clara Hart or rather Candice Mayfair is a great heroine introspective quiet reserved but friendly to not only people but animals. I couldn’t help but like her even though she’s a bit on the quiet side and very secretive too. I can understand her reservations but it would have been nice to see her hang out with girlfriend’s not just the wolf pack. Owen Nottingham sparked my interest sure I liked his name and wondered at it and was glad that Ms. Spear’s gave him an intriguing back story especially about his name. He did seem a little too eager for a relationship with Clara which I wanted him to chill his hormones down a little. Where Clara had the sense to go cautiously into a relationship Owen wanted to jump head in when usually it’s the reverse so it was nice to see the guy already wanting a relationship quickly. Despite Owen’s eagerness I did like him and wanted him to get a happily ever after. I am eager to read about David, Gavin and the rest of Ms. Spear’s shifters because I will definitely read about them.

3.5 stars----DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS is the first installment in Terry Spear’s spin off, contemporary, adult WHITE WOLF paranormal, romance series and the twenty third installment in the continuing HEART OF THE WOLF series. This is Arctic white wolf shifter PI Owen Nottingham, and paranormal author/white wolf Candice (aka Clara Hart) Mayfair’s story line. DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines and series is revealed where necessary. As well, some of the characters and couples cross over from the author’s HEART OF THE JAGUAR series including Arctic wolf shifters Cameron and Faith MacPherson, and their wolf pup Corey whom we met in A VERY JAGUAR CHRISTMAS (October 2016).

Told from dual third person perspectives (Owen and Candice) DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS follows the search for reluctant heiress Clara Hart. Two years earlier, while camping with some friends, Clara’s life changed the night she attempted to feed a hungry looking white wolf cub- a werewolf Arctic shifter-who accidently bit and transformed our story line heroine. Fast forward to present day and our heroine, who now goes by her professional name author Candice Mayfair, finds herself a lone wolf in a world she brings to life in her popular romance novels. Enter private investigator and Arctic wolf shifter Owen Nottingham, and the man with whom Candice will fall in love. What ensues is the quick building relationship between Candice and Owen, and the potential fall out as Candice and Owen battle the clock, and their shifts, as the deadline to claim Clara’s inheritance is fast approaching.

DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS is a sweet story of family and friendship; of one man who discovers his other half; and one woman who finally finds a place where she belongs. There is no conflict between our leading couple; their attraction to one another is immediate and intense; Owen knows he has found the mate that calls to his heart. The $ex scenes are passionate; Clara/Candice’s questions about life as a wolf are entertaining and educational.

We are introduced to Owen’s business partners, friends and fellow Arctic wolf shifters David Davis, and Gavin Summerfield, as well as the familiarity of Cameron and Faith MacPherson, and their triplet wolf pups; Candice /Clara’s uncle Strom Hart, and Montana homicide detective Rowdy Sanderson who is aware of the supernatural world of shifters.

DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS is a predictable but cute story line; an easy read. The author’s writing style is almost too simple for an adult novel. I don’t know when or where the change in style began but there is something different in the water-downed presentation within the last few tales of Terry’s paranormal shifters. The conflict is limited; everyone gets along; there is no competition for the few female shifters that are potential mates to the numerous single males. I am looking forward to Gavin and David’s storyline, as well as the possibility that Clara’s Uncle Strom will find someone to love.

f you read last year’s holiday story A Very Jaguar Christmas with Demetria and Everett’s adventure with a white wolf pup, a shifter species that none of the jaguars knew even existed – well, then you’ve met Corey, and know the mischief he can get up to.

A few years ago, Clara was with a small group of friends, camping in the forest. Unable to sleep she went outside of her tent to watch the stars. She caught sight of a white puppy and thinking the pup was lost she’d held out a bit of beef jerky to tempt the puppy closer – unfortunately instead of being able to grab the pup she ended up lightly bitten as he snatched the jerky out of her hand and ran. It hurt, and she felt a bit odd. Returning to her tent she discovered at some point during the night she’d suddenly grown paws… white furry paws. Believing it to be a hallucination from the dog bite she shrugged it off… until it happened again. Yeah, that was no lost puppy but a small white wolf shifter named Corey… in trouble once again since it’s now come to light that he’d accidentally turned a human.

These days Clara, who has officially changed her name to her professional pen name of Candice Mayfair lives a very solitary life in a small town near mountains and forests where she can run in her wolf form. She has no control over her shifts and has left friends, family and career far behind. Only visiting when the moon phases allow, which has created conflict, disappointment and her adoptive parents basically disowning her. She lives alone, writes her hugely popular paranormal romance and survives. Alone until one special man searches her out… one man she never imagined would have such an impact on her life. Her mate.

Owen, along with his friends and pack mates have opened up the physical office for their private investigator business. And the very first call is an interesting missing person case. A young woman disowned by her parents has fallen off the planet it seems. She’s come into quite an inheritance from her parents and she has one month to claim it or it goes to her uncle. Yep. Candice. Owen sets out to find the elusive Clara and discovers far more than he thought possible. Now he has to convince her that claiming her inheritance and going to meet with his pack are really good ideas… perhaps proven when they are followed by a stranger tracking wolf prints that lead right to her door. Owen’s attraction is strong, he believes he’s found his mate but he won’t push her. Yet he hopes that showing her the safety and community of pack life and helping her with her inheritance claim will show her just how right they are together.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas is a fun, sexy, emotional story with touches of intrigue and danger. It’s stated as the first book in the White Wolf sub-series, a part of the Heart of the Wolf series… yet if we’re talking about the white arctic wolves then Legend of the White Wolf would be the first time we met any of Owen’s pack mates, in particular Cameron and Faith. Just a side bit of information there.

I enjoyed Candice and Owen’s romance very much. They are a believable and likable couple who fit together so well. It was fun to run into other characters from the overall series and the jaguars series once again. I happen to love when those light crossovers happen in Terry Spear’s stories. I believe any Shifter Romance or Paranormal Romance reader would enjoy this one. Do you “have” to have read the entire sets of series? That’s a hard question. On the surface… no, you can enjoy Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas as the start of a new series. There isn’t the world building of the original series, yet there is enough background information added in that I don’t believe you’d be lost. It might even encourage you to go back and read the earlier books. In my opinion.

*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*

Owen was an Arctic wolf and a Private Investigator/ P I. Hed knew that the white wolf he had seen across the river wasn’t one of the Arctic wolves which had changed him and his friends. Five years ago Owen and his P I partner david was out hunting for bear. David had a heart attack neither Owen nor the guide they had hired could help david way out in the woods. The wolves wouldn’t have bitten David if owen hadn’t asked for the guides help. They had bit David to give him their enhances powers to repair his heart or David would have died. Owen was bitten because of what he had seen without paying the consequences- become one of them or die. After that the pack took them in , they had to because Owen and David had no control over shifting Owen wanted to find the other arctic wolf it could mean he or one of his bachelor male buddies could have a mate. But he couldn’t find her as she was with friends and he didn’t know which female was the actual werewolf. Then her and her friends took a canoe trip after a couple of days and Owen never knew what became of her. Owen finally opened a new P I shop in White River Falls. Minn. He was eager to make a go of it. Business again after seven years of working online. Every since that day in the woods Clara had been a whole different person with her world turned upside down. Her friends were no longer her friends, and her adoptive parents had disowned her. She had changed her name to her pseudonym that she wrote her books under- candace Mayfair. Candace moved from Houston to the wilderness in South dakota. After two years Candace came to grips with what she now was. Candace had realized she had to isolate herself from everyone she had known in the past and did it. She settled into her new life and wrote about the subject she now knew best - werewolves. Using her former talent in writing suspense romances she wrote Arctic wolf romances. Owen got a call first thing when he was the only one in the office to find Clara/Candace as she has a month to claim her inheritance her parents had left her who had been rich or her uncle would get it. Through an old co-worker Owen found out Clara and Candace were one and the same person. Owen shows up at Candace’s house and finds out one of the pups of his small pack had bitten and turned Candace. Candace had been dealing with this all by herself for two years. Owen offers to run as a wolf with Candace and she agrees. She actually really likes having another wolf to run with, Owen wants her to come meet his small pack - there were three single males and a coupple with their kids/ pups that were triplets one being the one who had bitten Candace by accident. While on their run they end up rescuing two snowmobilers and the third man had filmed them by the request one of the men they had rescued. That night someone had been snooping around Candace’s house and that had never happened before the rescue. Candace decides to pack up for a little while and go meet owen;s pack until the rescue had all blown over. Candace would stay in owen’s cabin with him since she had already met him. They packed some essentials for Candace and left the next morning for Minn.
I loved this book, it was a good,easy fun read, I loved the plot and pace. Also a little different spin on werewolves. I loved how candace didn’t have to be alone anymore unless she chose to. But even then she could always call Owen or the other members of his pack. I couldn’t find anything I didn’t like about this book. I loved how Owen took care of candace anyway that he could. I also loved owen and candace’s relationship grew over time. I loved the characters and the ins and outs and I highly recommend this book

DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS is book one in Terry Spear's "White Wolf" series. For me, this book is reminiscent of and has much of what I love about, Terry Spear's "Silver Town" series. Little does Clara Hart know that when a cute Arctic wolf pup bites her, that it would lead to finding love. When Clara and Owen Nottingham lock eyes, while in their wolf forms it's kismet. Two years after Clara's bite and that anonymous, yet enchanted encounter with Owen, fate brings the two of them together again. Although this is the first book in a spin-off series, readers might want to check out LEGEND OF THE WHITE WOLF. LEGEND OF THE WHITE WOLF is about Owen's pack members Faith and Cameron.

Two years after being bitten and changed into an Arctic wolf shifter, Clara Hart is living a somewhat isolated existence using her writing pseudonym Candice Mayfair. Her name and lifestyle change make it somewhat difficult for Owen to track her down to tell her about a sudden inheritance. Candice is shocked to find that the PI at her doorstep is the same wolf she admired years ago. Mutual surprise at finding each other again soon gives way to mutual attraction. This book can be divided into sections. A big part of the beginning of this story focuses on Candice and Owen getting to know each other and gradually falling in love -- first while enjoying a little snowed-in romance at Candice's South Dakota home, and later while they are staying with his pack in Minnesota.

Part of what makes me love this story so much is because I like the main characters. Candice had a life-changing event, but is a survivor and has been successful, self-sufficient, and lacking any major bitterness about her change in circumstances. Owen Nottingham is a private investigator, Arctic wolf shifter, and a sexy sweetheart of a guy who would make any woman melt. Although it would be in his and his pack's best interest for Candice to join their pack, she appreciates how Owen gives her the time she needs to make the decision on her own. Owen's heady seduction includes outdoor excursions, cooking together while sharing sassy exchanges, and indulging in an unexpected shared interest in writing. The second half of this book involves Candice working with Owen's friends and pack mates in unmasking an impostor out to steal Candice's inheritance.

DREAMING OF A WHITE WOLF CHRISTMAS is an enchanting tale of kismet -- werewolf style. It was great seeing familiar jaguar shifter characters in this story. Family plays a big part in this book -- both biological and adopted pack -- and Terry Spear excels at writing about group dynamics. I look forward to reading Terry Spear's next werewolf romance.

A perfect read for the holiday season. A woman who never intended to find her mate will discover him one fated night camping. Another well written shifter book of wolves trying to navigate among those who wish to cause them harm. Trust, friendship and the ability to blend into the human world will leave these characters with plenty of adventures.

I can't wait to read more from Terry. Just the right amount of heat.

I am so very ready for Fall and the cooler weather to get here but what I’m not ready for is the Holidays. This makes things hard for me since they are coming up quick. I’ve had Dreaming of A White Wolf Christmas in my TBR pile for quite awhile, but it’s hard to read a Holiday book when it’s pushing triple digits outside. Still, with it’s publishing date approaching I drug my inner Christmas elf out of hibernation and started reading.

I shouldn’t have worried so since it really didn’t have a Holiday feel to it for almost the entire first half of the book. Even after that, the Holidays were more like a subtle backdrop instead of an in your face Holiday extravaganza which I greatly appreciated.

Dreaming of a White Wolf Christmas has an interesting take on shifters. In fact, in this world, turned wolves don’t have control of their shifts for years after being bitten and what a pain in the rear end that was. As interesting as some aspects of this world were, I struggled with the book itself. It felt very simplistic and one-dimensional at its core. Many important aspects were skipped over and there was more telling than showing which drove me bonkers.

At the beginning of the book, Candice was accidentally bitten by a werewolf wolf puppy while on a camping trip with friends. The story then immediately fast forwards a couple of years and we are told in the most unemotional, basic way about her isolation since the bite, her troubles with controlling the shifts, and that she was disowned by her family. To say I felt cheated of some prime character development time is an understatement.

Owen is a turned wolf and a member of the wolf pack that the cub belongs to. By sheer coincidence (which caused lots of eye rolling on my part), he is hired to find Candace so she can collect on an inheritance. I liked Owen well enough but, again, there just wasn’t a lot of substance there.

There was loads of potential in Dreaming of A White Wolf and it had some interesting parts, but Instead of the well fleshed out story I expected, for me, it fell into the just okay category.

Rating: 2.5 Please Show Don’t Tell Stars

This story did not disappoint. It held a very good pace throughout and kept my attention.

Here we have Candice Mayfair who is a white arctic wolf. She is all by herself and she has had to withdraw from almost everyone she knows. On a camping trip she was bit by a wolf pup and then later realized she was now a white arctic wolf as well. She remembers the wolf Pup Plus you remember seeing a large white wolf across the river who captivated her attention. She works from home as a paranormal romance author and she writes about Arctic wolves in her stories.

Owen Nottingham is a private investigator. He is also a white arctic wolf shifter. He lives in a small Clan with several other friends who have either been born as a wolf Shifters or who were changed. Owen has been contracted to find the missing niece of a billionaire. She only has 30 days to claim her inheritance if not the money will go to her uncle. Owen would have never believed that the She Wolf of his dreams would be the woman who answered the door and is the nice of the billionaire.

This is truly a really good story. I love how the author can just bring you in to the scene and make you feel like you are truly there and witnessing the dialogue of the characters. I would definitely love to read any further books in this series.

I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this books.
I really liked this book and it's very well written. I really liked Candice and Owen’s romance.
