A dream cottage in the middle of the forest is the perfect place to write sensual, paranormal romances and live out your fantasies. Especially when the big, bad wolf comes knocking on your door.

McKenzi Towers writes paranormal romances and has reached the peak of success where she purchases her dream cottage deep in the woods of a small town in Virginia. Having escaped the monotonous grind of city living, she longs to relax, enjoy the fresh air and freedom, and get back to her computer to meet upcoming deadlines. The last thing she expects is a "big bad wolf" scratching at her door, and she immediately fears for her life and safety. But the soulful brown eyes and pitiful whine convince her he's actually very gentle and simply in need of love and affection.

Accepting the wolf as a part of nature, McKenzi is quite content with the new life she's found until she encounters a handsome, brown-eyed stranger in the middle of the woods who quickly shakes her out of her complacency.

Daniel Braddock takes her breath away and with her, her inhibitions. Falling hard and fast, McKenzi is ecstatic to have found her dream lover, but still, something doesn't seem quite right. Though Danny is sensual, giving, and uninhibited, he possesses certain traits that both alarm and fascinate McKenzi. And when she discovers a birthmark on Danny's thigh that exactly matches the one she remembers seeing on the wolf's hind leg, McKenzi begins to think the unthinkable.
