River Wolf (Wolves of Willow Bend #7) by Heather Long



Blurb:
Brett Dalton, Alpha of Hudson River, isolated himself from his pack mates after one betrayed him. The once, easygoing Alpha has become taciturn, remote and unforgiving. His pack worries for him, but they too have suffered a devastating blow. When several members leave to join Three Rivers, the pack faces the threat of dissolution until Brett's best friend and Lone Wolf, Luc Danes returns to Hudson River accompanied by a beautiful young human—or is she? Something about the woman consumes Brett. Has Luc come home to help or to take the pack from Brett?

Colby Jensen wrapped up thousands of hours of community service working at the hospital in Maine when an injured Luc Danes rolled through the door. The impossible patient drove the nurses crazy, but when Danes offered her money no strings attached to drive him to New York, she agreed. The last thing she expected was to arrive in the small Westchester County town and to meet the craziest collection of residents—especially the devastatingly sexy Brett Dalton. Part of her wants to hit the road, the rest wants to make him smile and he keeps making excuses for her to stay.

Then she sees the wolves...and is exposed to a world she can barely imagine. When Brett discovers a secret about her, nothing will be the same again. Now she will find herself torn between a world she isn't sure she can understand and the man who has taken her heart hostage...

My review:
A terrific addition to the series and a great start to a new arc. Brett Dalton, Alpha of Hudson River, is damaged inside and out. A wolf he trusted betrayed him and threw him into a bonfire.  He has the burn scars to prove it. But the real damage is to his confidence. Who can he trust when he can trust himself. His pack is suffering right along with him. Colby Jensen has made mistakes but has done her time. She was born to help people and if anyone needs her help it is Brett and his pack. Can these two overcome their own issues long enough to help each other out and maybe find love along the way. Find out in this fast paced well written book by the fantastic Heather Long. This book takes us out of Willow Bend but their influence is felt.  If you haven’t read The Wolves of Willow Bend books yet I recommend them highly but this can be read without it.
