Summary

Log cabin designer Nix Cutter lives next to a popular hiking trail, Hollandale Trail. Single, attractive, and in his early thirties, he's in search of the right man to spend the rest of his life with. No one has fit the bill in the recent months or years ... until maybe now.
Enter Backpack Jack, a handsome coffee shop owner named Jack Faraway who arrives in July to hike the trail. The attraction between them is immediate and strong attraction. The two men spend the afternoon getting to know each other. But soon, Jack and his pack leave. 
Following Jack's goodbye, Nix has a designing deadline to meet. But he can't concentrate on his work. The next day, he sees a familiar someone in the distance on Hollandale Trail. The person's frame and features are distant but familiar. It can't be Backpack Jack ... or is it?

    Everyone's always told Aspic that trouble can't help following him because of his heritage. Determined to put the lie to half-demon stereotypes, he's finally landed a good, quiet job as an herbalist's clerk where the owner trusts him to man the shop alone. What could go wrong selling coriander and thyme? 
 
 
 
When Geoffrey first enters the shop, Aspic finds the little man's eccentric appearance startling, then intriguing. Geoffrey explains, in stops and starts, that he is a theoretical necromancer researching replacements for blood magic. His current line of inquiry involves seashells—do they have any in stock? Aspic's coworkers warn him that Geoffrey is a walking disaster, but he finds himself more and more drawn to a necromancer concerned with ethical death magic. 
 
 
 
Geoffrey's first impression of the half demon shop clerk is that his brain is as fluffy as his bright pink hair, but Aspic's persistent appearances at Geoffrey's lab soon let him see the kind heart underneath the façade of friendly nitwit. Aspic's company isn't that bad, and he is someone to talk to during the frustrations of one failed experiment after another. Failed, that is, until something finally goes right—and then terribly, horrifyingly wrong.

    From the remote, wild corners of Wolf, Wyoming, to the even wilder streets of Washington, DC, something strange is going on with the O'Connell family. Be it the new ex-lawyer in town or the folks that go bump in the night, it seems like everyone wants to know exactly what that thing is -- and how they can get their own piece of the beastly O'Connell bloodline. Dark forces hide in dark corners, and nothing attracts them more than dark secrets.


Contains the stories:

Wolf, WY: Still nursing wounds left by a cheating ex, Wolf, Wyoming seems like the perfect place for Randy to start over. When a misunderstanding brings Randy face to face with his hot new neighbor and his neighbor's son, he's not sure what to make of either of them. Things are not what they appear in Wolf, and the closer Randy gets, the stranger the O'Connell family seems.

Wolf, en Garde: Sick of watching his father love the man Lyle wanted, he accepts an offer to leave Wolf, WY. Free to experience life on his own terms, Lyle comes across a seductive, fascinating stranger in Washington, DC. It doesn't take Lyle long to realize Arius is dangerous, though, and when Lyle runs across a secret in Arius' lair, he has no choice but to flee to the only safe place he knows -- home.

Wolf, in League: After months of silence from the O'Connell family, and suspicious of what took place in DC, the Committee recruits one of their new residents, Dr. Matthew Dietrich, to infiltrate the family. Matthew is a loner and has no idea why they'd want him, especially with his skepticism over shifters. That all changes when he meets his new partner in the Committee's scheme, Dr. Gavin Strauss.
