Home for the Howlidays — Chloe Cole

Featured in the New York Times bestselling anthology, Kiss of Christmas Magic!

Nicklaus Maslov left Stone Creek, Montana, in his rearâ€"view mirror three years ago and never planned to go back. His pack's ways are antiquated, and the girl he loves will never be his. But when his father, the pack's alpha, sends him an urgent message, he can't deny the protective instinct drawing him back to his hometown, or the lure of the one that got away.

Petra Stevens has had her heart stomped on once and vows it will never happen again. When her former lover and packmate returns to Stone Creek, all the rage and hurt she felt when he'd left comes bubbling to the surface…along with other feelings she can't control. If she can just avoid him while he's in town, things will be fine. But fate has other plans…
