Merritt Baker is older than he looks.
Quite a bit older, in fact. He knows all about the woods and where one should never wander at night, but the fact of the matter is, sometimes men are the scariest creatures of all, and Merritt makes it his business to protect the innocents caught in their wake. In the small town of Coille, West Virginia, where he makes his home, he takes care of quite a few people, and that's always been enough. Or has been. Lately though, he's felt a bit lost, as though he's forgotten what it means to really live rather than simply exist. Change arrives when a pack of shifters buys the land that borders his. He doesn't think twice about them until his simple rules are ignored, and suddenly there's conflict. One of the wolves, Cole Swann, is very interested in him, and surprisingly, Merritt can't seem to get the man out of his head. But things aren't what they seem, and between other packs, ghosts, and worst of all, love, Merritt might be in over his head. That's the thing about being lost—it can be wonderful when you're finally found, but is it worth the risk of losing yourself?
