He called her for a fake relationship. She brought a printed agenda and seven boxes
of GPS units.
Eli Voss has been twenty-six for a hundred years. He’s the youngest Voss brother, the
warmest one, the one who always knows what’s happening in everyone else’s life before
they do. He also has a grandmother who has been right about everything for three
hundred years and who has been arranging dinners for him—eleven in four months. He
is not ready.
His solution: a decoy. He calls June Walsh, the wildlife veterinarian who’s been applying
for access to Iron Fang territory for fourteen months, and proposes a professional
arrangement. She gets access. He gets his grandmother off his back. Simple.
June says yes. She also brings: eight ground rules (in writing), a printed agenda for the
first review meeting (with bullet points), a standing Thursday phone call, weekly list

review meetings with actual data, and a concern list that begins with Item 4: ‘Easy-to-
talk-to is how professional arrangements get complicated.’
She’s monitoring Item 4 closely.
Eli thinks this is the most interesting thing that’s happened to him in twenty years. June
thinks it’s a controlled study with clear parameters. The territory has known something
was happening since the first Wednesday. Grandmother Voss has been right about
everything for three hundred years and is currently drinking tea with the serenity of
someone whose hypothesis has been confirmed.
The concern list reaches Item 6. The wolf with the eyebrows witnesses the claiming. The
heritage record has several dedicated sections.
Ruthless Mate is a dark wolf shifter romance featuring fake dating, a sunshine
wolf hero who is much more dangerous than he appears, a scientist heroine with a
concern list and a conflict-of-interest disclosure, and explicit heat that arrives with full
documentation. Standalone, part of the Iron Fang Series.
