Thirteen years ago Rebecca Ferguson died, at least to everyone in the Black Hills territory. With a human mother and unable to shift into a wolf, Magnum Tao, the deranged alpha of the Tao Pack would’ve had both her and her father killed for deceiving him. Magnum didn’t allow humans to mate with members of his pack.
Now Magnum is the one who’s dead, and Rebecca can return.
But coming back from the dead, building a new life after her divorce, and opening a library in town aren’t the only obstacles Rebecca faces. Elijah, her father, doesn’t approve of her being in Los Lobos to the point where he forbids her to get involved with the pack, especially the males.
Their relationship has suffered because of her absence and she hopes to bridge the divide, confident that she doesn’t want a romantic entanglement with anyone human or wolf, anyway.

“I’ll pledge my loyalty to you through a blood oath, if you’ll support my choice of mate.”
Drew’s eyebrows went up. Ryker, true to form, didn’t blink an eye.
“Why would you need my support?”
“It’s Rebecca Ferguson.”
Ryker straightened, taking on a solid stance next to Drew. The discussion wasn’t a threat to the alpha in any way.
“Her father won’t allow it.”
“I know.”
“He’s alpha of his household.”
“I know.”
“Are you going to challenge him?”
“If I have to.”
“And you want me to sanction it.”
“Yes.”
Drew sank into his chair. “What does Rebecca have to say? The last time I spoke to her, she didn’t mention you.”
Blaine smiled. He hadn’t earned himself any favors. “She doesn’t know yet.”
“You expect me to support your claim without her being aware of it?”
“You expect me to swear a blood oath to you without assurance whether or not you’ll turn into your father.”
The menacing growl from Ryker vibrated through the room.
“You’re playing a dangerous game, Blaine.”
“All of us have done it for our mates.” He stared from one to the other.
News traveled through the wolf-grapevine. Drew’d had to gain his mate, Betty’s, trust when he returned to Los Lobos after she believed the lies his father told about him. Ryker had overstepped their laws by mating a human, something the old alpha would’ve killed him for. But Drew didn’t seem to have a problem with humans becoming part of the Tao pack.
“Elijah isn’t going to hand over Rebecca to you. He went to extreme measures to keep her safe.” Drew sat forward again. “Even with the new order, he’s still protective of her.”
Blaine didn’t budge. He knew what he wanted. And he rarely lost.
The Wolf’s Choice was my first taste of Inge Saunders writing. This story is filled with love, worry, and hope.
Rebecca and Blaine are fated mates, but were too young at the time when they found each other. Now that Rebecca is back, Blaine must deal with her father who is determined to keep them apart. Will they find their HEA?
The author does a superb job giving the reader all the information needed at the beginning, so that you can start this story and read it as a standalone.
The story moves along at a steady pace. Their are some secrets that threaten this couple’s new life. The romance was sweet. I enjoyed watching these two find each other again and come together. Blaine was wonderful with Rebecca.
The Wolf’s Choice is a quick, sweet, and wonderful read. It’s a great addition to the Black Hills Wolves series. I had a delightful time with the characters and story.
Rated: 4 Stars

Ya, it sure would. I’ve read a few others in the series and each have been able to read as standalone. Which is good. The Black Hills Wolves is one of those series that several different authors write in. It’s the new trend that I’ve started seeing with authors. Thank’s for checking out my review and the book.
Holy cow! #64 in a series? Jeesh. I guess it’s a good thing you were able to pick up this book without needing to catch up on the previous books. That would be one major undertaking. LoL
Book 64??? Really? I’m glad to hear that it is able to stand on its own. It sounds like a really good story. I can’t believe there are 64 books in this series. It blows my mind.
It’s one of those series that authors have calibrated on and each author writes a book. Well these are short stories, so not long. I’ve read others in the series and each one I’ve picked up reads as a standalone. The authors do a great job giving the information you need to pick up each book. I know #64 is such a big number. ^_^ Kinda intimidating.
It looks like a new one. First time I hear about this one.
The Black Hills Wolves series started last year, but many authors have written stories in the series. It’s one of this calibration series. Each story so far that I’ve read can be read as a standalone, which makes it nice, especially with so many in the series. I enjoyed The Wolf’s Choice. It was sweet.
