Taming the White Wolf

N.J. Walters — 2023

The lone wolf answers to no alpha or pack. From his first transformation, he knows his destiny: to be both judge and executioner for rogue werewolves. Welcome to the spellbinding first book in New York Times bestselling author N.J. Walters intense new werewolf series. White wolf Devlin Moore has spent nearly the last century following his destiny: hunting rogue werewolves. His fate is to be the only one of his kind—hardened, feared, and brutally ruthless. Only now, Devlin’s not alone. There are two others. And if that wasn’t unsettling enough, Devlin is drawn to New York City for what appears to be a human... As far as Devlin can tell, vibrant artist Zoe Galvani is no threat. But there’s something about her— from her unusual eyes that look similar to the same shocking hue as his own, to his growing need to mark her as his that suggests magical forces may be at play. Now there’s no escaping each other, or the attraction that grows stronger by the second. But no one, especially a human woman, should have this effect on a lone wolf. And just when he’s sure that having her could be his undoing...the truth steps out of the shadows.

Devlin is the White Wolf, one of three elite werewolf warriors who police the rogues among their kind. He has been on his own for almost a century, travelling the world and removing threats. But he's another kind of anomaly because there should only ever be one Lone Wolf - so what suddenly changed to have three at the same time?

Zoe has also been alone a long time. A former foster system kid, she has acquaintances but no real friends. When she bumps into Devlin a few times, she wonders if he's some unstable stalker but weirdly he makes her feel safe. But when Devlin's paranormal world crashes into Zoe's staid, boring life, she's going to have to learn on the lam!

Mages, Magic and power hungry Alphas are messing with Devlin and Zoe's lives. They are so in sync from the start, they make a great team. Zoe may know mothing of Werewolves but she is no damsel in distress. She may be out of her element but she mucks in and isn't afraid to wade in to protect Devlin. Devlin thinks he's this big, scary, killing machine but Zoe sees beyond that façade to the lonely, caring male beneath.

They realise that they have both been manipulated by outside forces but they don't let that push them apart, if anything it makes them a tighter knit team.

I'm really looking forward to the other Lone Wolves stories now!
