When Sovvan Stark was approached by her alpha with Cassius' request, she was reluctant to accept the challenge. She knows she will be able to help the pack, but she also knows it could very well kill her.

I have read all of author Heather Long's Wolves of Willow Bend, and I have to say DESERT WOLF is the best yet! Cassius starts out fighting and ends up fighting. Sovvan a lovely little wolf is strong and fierce, as an omega she has had to be. Cassius had been working hard to eliminate the threat to her but almost wasn't in time, and she had to defend herself in an ambush.

From a past book, I felt there was more to Cassius than meets the eye; he is strong, tough, violent and without mercy because he had to be to survive. After a little while, especially around Sovvan, the tender side of this wolf comes to the front ... though there were hints along the way that this tough guy has a soft spot. I loved watching the slow melting of his hardened heart. I also enjoyed seeing all of the alpha's uniting to face an even deadlier foe because it gives me hope this series will continue.

You are going to have to read DESERT WOLF to find out who and what that threat might be. I know it is trite to say I couldn't put this book down, but it was true! Every time I had to do something other than read, my mind was on what could possibly happen next. Ms. Long has a winner in DESERT WOLF, and I can't wait for more.
