Liam O’Sullivan balanced on a girder fifty feet in the air. The day was clear and cold. April in Seattle was a lesson in dichotomy. Endless stretches of gray, wet, cold days bookended by brilliantly sunny outliers that left residents scrambling to find long-misplaced sunglasses. Today was one of the latter days. Highs in the mid-forties, but almost blindingly bright and sunny.
His construction company, O’Sullivan and Shea, was building a new condo complex outside of Pioneer Square in Seattle. In the past four months, he’d filed for his permits, accepted three jobs, and hired a dozen men and women to work for him. He and Peter Shea ran things, but they weren’t above getting their hands dirty either. Today, Peter was in the office working on their account receivables while Liam was high in the sky supervising the last of the roof joists. He twirled a hammer in his long, calloused fingers, waiting for one of his crew, a tiny man named Rick, to retrieve his belt bag of nails. Why the bloody hell Rick left his bag on the first story he had no idea.
The harness that held him to the support girder swung in the gentle breeze. He liked this town. To the west, Puget Sound sparkled. He rubbed a sore spot on the back of his right shoulder. He’d been up late last night plumbing one of the bathrooms in the house he shared with most of the rest of his pack of werewolves and getting under the old sink had been a tight fit.
His alpha, Cade Bowman, had been captured and tortured by a fire elemental who blamed him for the death of her mother. It hadn’t been Cade’s fault, but Katerina was delusional. She’d trapped him as his wolf for seven months until he’d escaped and climbed into the back of a car. Now, he was mated to the owner of that car, a water elemental named Mara.
Cade and Mara lived next door to the rest of the pack. Cade had his woodworking shop down the street and consulted on some of Liam’s jobs. For these condos, Cade was going to design an art piece for the lobby.
Fig blossoms.
The scent reached Liam high in the air. God. He hadn’t smelled fig blossoms in ten years. Not since Cait.

Résumé
On the streets of Dublin, werewolf Liam O’Sullivan fell in love with Caitlin Brannigan...only to receive her suicide note days later.
Lost in sorrow on the eleventh anniversary of Caitlin’s death, he meets a mysterious woman whom he can’t resist. In her arms, he discovers the secret that sent his love running from him long ago—and the truth behind her death.
With his pack still recovering from a fire elemental’s brutal attempt to destroy them, Liam’s walking a tightrope, trying to keep the werewolves from fracturing at the seams, and his romantic alliance with Bella Pond makes him an enemy.
Soon, a threat bigger than anything they could have imagined comes crashing down, turning elemental against elemental. As Liam and Bella race to find a way to stop the darkness of her past from unraveling into chaos, werewolves start disappearing, one by one, and reappearing in pieces days later—and only Bella knows why.
Will Liam and Bella find the ancient magic that may be their only hope? Or will the tenuous threads of their bond—and the loyalty of those they love—leave them scrambling before the machinations of a madman?
