Summary: Cayden Winter has been trying to get his life back together since the day his abusive ex left him for someone else, but he doesn't think he's ready for a new relationship yet. That is, until he meets his hot new neighbor, Adrien, and gets hired by him to build a new website for the company Adrien works for. The fact that Adrien wants anything to do with him beyond business, though, just seems too good to be true. When Adrien Magnus is asked to get a new website for his brother-in-law's company, he doesn't expect that his cute neighbor will be the one to do it, nor does he expect Cayden to agree to go on a date with him when he asks. But dating a human brings a set of challenges he didn't fully consider, the biggest of which is how to explain that he's a werewolf. Until the night Adrien breaks one of the strictest werewolf rules and goes out alone on the night of the full moon, only to be hit by a car and left in pain in front of Cayden's house, changing everything. But who would drive onto Cayden's lawn and attempt to hit what appeared to be a dog, and why?
