The Protector's Heart (Wilde Creek, #3)

Nila Patterson doesn’t want anything to do with wolves. Her werewolf ex-husband continues to stalk her and their son, terrifying her to no end. The last thing she wants to do is acknowledge her attraction to the very sexy Malachi Slattery, who has been watching her for weeks. He’s not as discreet as he thinks he’s being. She’s not about to forget that Malachi is a wolf, and she’s learned the hard way that wolves are not to be trusted.

All Malachi Slattery wants to do is take care of Nila and her son. Nila is his mate, and his wolf has been howling to protect her ever since they met. But she doesn’t like wolves, and he can’t figure out a way to get her to see that he’s nothing like her ex. He’ll have to use every trick in the book in order to get past her defenses and prove to her that he’s a male she can count on. When her ex does the unthinkable in a ploy to get her back into his arms, Malachi will show him why no one messes with a Protector’s mate.

This book contains one stubborn woman, one determined wolf, a sweet little boy, sprinkled liberally with a dose of crazy ex, stalking, kidnapping, and excessive use of the word ‘mine’. Contains m/f interaction.
