Cursed to take the form of the wolf by day, Rolfe de Viandin is skeptical that love can save him.

Hunted in the forest, Annelise de Sayerne has to surrender her desire to wed for love, as the price of entering the only refuge is marriage to its enigmatic lord.

If Rolfeâs curse is not broken, how can he defend his beloved wife from the villain? Will their future be lost before it is truly wonâor will Rolfe be convinced of the power of love in time?
