Synopsis: For once, mated werewolves Charles and Anna are not traveling because of Charles’s role as his father’s enforcer. This time, their trip to Arizona is purely personal, as Charles plans to buy Anna a horse for her birthday. Or at least it starts out that way...
Charles and Anna soon discover that a dangerous Fae being is on the loose, replacing human children with simulacrums. The Fae’s cold war with humanity is about to heat up—and Charles and Anna are in the cross fire.
Dead Heat starts off with an prologue. We get a glimpse of an old Fae with an amazing glamour, he can hide from humans and Fae alike. Yet, he's left powerless.Some years later an old lady, a grey Lord, came to him with a gift and a task. She gave him back his magic as the gift, and as far as the task...it's a task that leads to load of trouble for everyone in his wake.
Between Charles and Anna hunting a Fae that spelled the daughter-in-law of the local pack Alpha, pack politics, and dealing with decades old family/drama this makes for an interesting nonstop ride.
