Rogue by B.A. Stretke

Derek Vaughn is the brother of the Alpha of the Bay Harbor Wolves and the Pack “Fixer.” If there is a problem, Derek is the one who makes it go away, sometimes to the bottom of the Bay. He’s a dark and deadly man, known for keeping his own company. He follows no rules except for his own and those of his brother, Alpha Henrik Vaughn. Walking through Eastport late one night, on his way back from a mission for his brother, Derek happens upon a fight in an alley. Usually, Derek wouldn’t concern himself with the business of others, but something about this was different. He felt compelled to save this little human. Fending off the Jackals with ease, only when he got a good look at the human was all made clear, this man was his mate. A mate wasn’t something Derek ever wanted to trouble himself with. He was too comfortable in his ways to consider the needs of another, but face to face with the most beautiful creature he’d ever laid eyes on all that went away. Derek knew this was his future. Now all is not right in Eastport and Bay Harbor, there is insurrection and criminal elements at play that put both the Pack and Derek’s newly found mate in serious jeopardy. Can Derek take it all on and protect not only his mate but his brother and his home as well?

Leo Russo is a bartender at the Indigo Hotel in Eastport, on a beautiful bay on Lake Michigan. This resort city of over 60,000 was meant to be his refuge, his hideaway, but it seems the problems he left behind in Chicago have found him. Walking down a dark alley after two in the morning, Leo is jumped by two-man and he wonders if this is it. All seemed lost until a dark stranger stepped into the alley and saved him. That dark man is Derek Vaughn, the brother of his employer over at the Indigo Hotel. Leo wonders what a man like Derek would want with him, but he just can’t seem to deny the man. With trouble brewing, Leo wonders if he can hold on to Derek and the possibility of tomorrow. Dark forces are surrounding them and it’s anyone’s guess who is really behind it all.

In Eastport and Bay Harbor, nothing is as it seems.
