Down and Dirty1: Wild Card

As alpha of the Lonely River Pack, Jack Owens is responsible for keeping the peace between what's left of the human population and the wolves who have taken over since the War. All wolves are his responsibility, even the ones who don't necessarily recognize his authority, like Virginia Howard. Ginny's been a thorn in Jack's side since she took over her parents' operation and established herself as one of the area's premier ranchers. The fact that she's everything he wants in a mate makes it hard to stay away from her? but any good hunter knows how to bide his time. Ginny fights hard to maintain her independence from men, human and werewolf alike. When a group of angry wolves, determined to see her submit, threaten her operation, she's forced to accept Jack's assistance. But in saving her ranch, Ginny runs the risk of losing something far greater--her heart.
