"All man, no matter what his origins."

At seventeen, Hope Bainesworth became Wolfe's mate -- Wolfe, a genetically altered soldier, created by her mother -- a mating that was never consummated. Now twenty- three, Hope has believed Wolfe dead for the past six years. That is, until she wakes up in an isolated cabin, bound to a bed and questioned by the man she hungers for. Is there any way she can convince him of her faithfulness -- and her mother's lies?

The story is well written, very erotic. I didn't care for the story line, though. I found it hard to sympathize with Wolfe. The lack of willingness to give his "mate" any type of trust at all was aggravating. I found the heroine to lack depth and be too quick to forgive. The final pages of the story, though, were excellent and I do look forward to more tales of Wolfe's compatriots.

Hope believed Wolfe was dead, but he was only waiting for the right time to claim her. The scientist who created him, Hope's mother, has forced his hand. She wants her creation back, and she wants any children he may breed on her daughter.

He is a man whose DNA was altered, infused with the genetic code of the wolf. His unique genetic makeup has created a male unlike any other and will make itself known in the most surprising ways. Now Hope must convince her mate she hasn't betrayed him, and they must defeat the plans of a scientist gone mad.
