An accident as a child left Bo Elliot with a bad leg that never healed correctly and a sense of low self-worth - especially when it came to love - though he didn't let it stop him from fighting his way to Third in the Tressel pack's rankings.  When he rescues a she-wolf from three lynxes, he finally discovers his truemate.  While he is determined to free her from a commitment placed on her when she was a child, he refuses to tie her down to a crippled wolf.  Only Reika's truemate can break the binding that has loomed over her head for fifteen years, but can she put aside her fear of losing the man she loves so she can keep him?I cannot begin to tell you how enamored I am with this series.  I was ecstatic when the author announced she would be telling Bo's story.  Bo is such a wonderful, noble, kind, gentle-but-tough person who has been such an awesome friend to Jason, Michael and all the other wolves in the pack; it was heartbreaking to even consider that he would never find his truemate.  Reika is such a perfect mate for him and an excellent addition to the pack, too.  I could very much relate to her attitude of "this is my sworn obligation, so I'm going to be stupid about it."  Been there, dumbed that.This story had me screaming at the stubbornness of the characters and catching my breath with every glance and touch.  Through each tense moment wondering whether the lynxes would show up, I was riveted.  I couldn't wait to get to the end of the book, but I didn't want it to end.  I loved it from start to finish.  If you asked me if I had any negative thing to say about the book, my reply would be:  how many bloody were-species are there?  I am positive this author could write a fabulous series about every single were-species she develops.  And I would read them all.  Every.  Single.  One.  Well done, Ms. Butler!
