The man sent to learn his secrets is the one he can't resist. 

Bryce Reynolds knows trouble when it steps onto pack land in a tailored suit. Tom Barrington, the Shifter Council's envoy, is observant, perceptive, and way too competent for Bryce's peace of mind. Tom moves like someone who could be dangerous if he chose, and Bryce notices that in a way he really wishes he didn't.

Tom keeps telling himself he's only here to work. But Bryce is warm and generous, and every smile knocks another crack in the walls Tom built after losing everything he loved. Then there's the low voice, teasing eyes, and that damn belt buckle.

What should have been a tense few days of observation turns into late-night conversations, quiet understanding, and a pull neither of them can shake. But the wrong choice could cost Bryce's pack its safety, and Tom the professional integrity he refuses to compromise.

And when the secret Bryce's pack is hiding finally breaks open, everything shatters. They're dragged into a deadly pursuit through Washington's shadows. To have any chance at whatever this is between them, they'll first have to survive.

Each book in the Strength of the Pack series is a standalone romance with its own HEA. An overarching plot runs through the series.
