About this ebook
Book 7 of the Black Mesa Wolves series by USA TODAY bestselling author J.K. Harper
"Get the tissues out for this one. A sexy, action packed and emotional story."
As a paramedic, Jordyn Lowe saves people's lives on a daily basis. As a wolf shifter, she's dedicated to her pack. And as a woman, she's head over paws in love with Tanner. But Tanner has a restless, tortured soul. Leaving people and places behind is what he does best, and he's about to do it to her.
Firefighter Tanner Canagan is a wolf shifter with a past. After unspeakable tragedy tore his family apart, he's had a desire to save others ever since. But it also means he doesn't do commitment to anyone or anything—not even Jordyn, the gorgeous woman whose heart he's about to shatter.
Letting go of the wild passion between them might be the hardest thing Jordyn will ever do. Unless she can somehow convince both Tanner and herself that two broken souls can create one sexy firestorm of a union together…forever.
To the reader: This story is filled with hawt times, sexy romance, and the secret world of wolf shifters. If you love shifters, small towns, and the power of wild love to always triumph in the end, this book is for you.

Fire Wolf - J.K. Harper

Acrid smoke clogged up Tanner's lungs. Coughing, he jammed his mask back on and sucked in filtered air.
The chief leveled a dangerous glare at Tanner through his own mask. You know the damn rules, Canagan. Keep it on. Next time I see you pull that kind of dumb move, you're getting written up.
Anger dropped over Tanner in an icy sheet. He opened his mouth to retort, but the chief thrust his head forward, neck tendons bulging out. Not a word, son. Don't you make me regret keeping you on. You and that hot head of yours.
The look in his eyes said Tanner had better not even take a breath, let alone say anything. Slicing his hand across his throat in a sharp cut it out motion, the chief turned on his heel and strode back toward the engines parked in front of the house that had just burned to a crisp despite the crew’s best efforts.
Slamming his own glare after his boss, wolf pacing and huffing in his mind, Tanner turned his head to look back at the charred, smoking remains of what used to be somebody's home. His gut churned at the sight. He hated it when they lost a house. When a family was devastated. There had to be a reason this fire had started, and he was damn well going to discover it.
Standing next to him, mask and helmet still firmly in place until they were given the go-ahead to remove them, Zach shot Tanner his own disapproving look. He's the chief, man. Treat him with a little respect, won't you? You've been pushing the damn envelope too much lately.
Glaring back, Tanner ignored his lifelong friend's advice. He had a hell of a lot of respect for human firefighters. They were brave, strong, and tough. But they weren't wolf shifters. In Tanner's view, that meant every single one of them ranked below him. Even the chief. He had to follow human law and order, and he did, but holding in his temper was getting to be harder and harder the longer he stayed at this fire station.
I'm just trying to help figure out who did this,
he growled. With a pointed glare at his friend, he added, Which is the job you're supposed to be training for. Want to help out?
Zach raised an eyebrow. He was in the fire investigation training program. While Tanner was not, he had personal reasons to always help out the investigations. Reasons Zach knew well. With a short head shake, Zach said, Sure. When my chief tells me I can start. It's his call, Tanner. Not yours.
Tanner blew out a harsh breath and stared at the remains of the home. If I start now, I can maybe pick something up.
With their wolf senses, both Tanner and Zach had a distinct edge over the rest of the human crew. Not that any of the other guys knew about the existence of shifters.
There was no answer. He didn't look at Zach but figured his friend was giving him another look, and probably shaking his head at him this time, too. Tanner didn't care. This was his self-appointed job, and he was doing it. He'd found clues before that he'd given to Zach to pass on to the investigation team. It wasn't like he was putting himself or Zach or anyone else in danger. The fire was contained. He was just doing his job. In the end, that was all that ever mattered. It didn't make a difference whether or not he got along with the rest of the crew, or if he had an independent, even rebellious streak. He wanted to help people, dammit. Being punished for that only slowed the process.
Like always, Tanner made up his mind in a split second, his wolf's inner rumbles echoing his thoughts. As usual, he wasn't fitting in with the crew here. There were other places that needed his help. It was well past time for him to move on anyway. He'd been here closing in on a year. It made him feel edgy as hell.
Even though this was as close to his first home as he'd lived since he was a pup.
Chief, hold up a sec. I need a word,
he called out after the rigidly departing back of his chief.
Behind him, Zach muttered, What the hell are you doing?
As Tanner headed toward the chief, who had turned around, he gave a single glance toward the paramedic vehicle parked down the street. Looking through its windshield, he caught the flash of dark hair and smooth skin of the woman seated inside, lit up by the interior lights.
Swallowing hard, he resolutely turned toward the chief. His wolf suddenly whining inside at the determined whirl of Tanner's thoughts, he ignored both it and the soft, sensuous pull of the gorgeous female wolf shifter inside the paramedic vehicle.
The one who squeezed at his chest and confused the hell out of his mind every time he thought of her. The one who would have to understand the decision he was about to make.
After all, he was making it as much for her as for himself.
Jordyn Lowe was barely aware of her partner's presence, head buried in making shift notes in her online log book, until Sean said something. Damn, there he goes again. Acting just like the lone wolf he is.
Jordyn snapped up her head, shock whispering through her. Following Sean's gaze, she saw one of the soot-marked members of Durango's Station 89 Firehouse peeling off his yellow jacket to check the perimeter of the burn. Tanner. Her heart jolted at the sight of him, as always. Casually, side-eyeing her partner, she said, Lone wolf?
Inside, her heart took a couple of extra beats, setting her wolf to even more focused attention.
Yeah, look at him.
Sean's voice took on a disapproving tone. He's always doing that kind of stuff. Don't get me wrong, Tanner's an awesome guy. He can shoot some mean hoops and play a good hand of poker. But that's about it. No one really knows anything about him, you know? He just hangs out on his own all the time.
Sean shrugged, as if the term should be obvious. He's a lone wolf.
Jordyn and her wolf both relaxed. Of course Sean hadn't meant it literally. He was human. He had no idea that shifters not only walked the world's population, but that Tanner was one of them. Or that Jordyn was. Lone wolf, huh? He and Zach are friends,
she pointed out. Since they were kids.
"Yeah, but Tanner hasn't lived here since he was a kid. I'd say they're not that close anymore. He's pretty buttoned up about most things."
Shrugging a shoulder, looking back down at the paperwork on her tablet still to be filled out, Jordyn let that go. Sean definitely did not need to know about the existence of the local wolf pack. But his next words had her hackles rising again.
Unless, of course, he shares things with you.
Sean elbowed her teasingly in the ribs. Pillow talk. Spilling all his deep, dark secrets to his lady love.
He ended his words on a singsong note.
Jordyn rolled her eyes as both annoyance and that usual sizzling tingle when she thought of Tanner flashed through her. I'm hardly his lady love. We just like to hang out together sometimes is all.
As she said that, her wolf whined in her mind. Frowning, Jordyn shoved away the images of zipping through the woods with Tanner, both of them in wolf form. The images of talking with him, laughing, and plenty of quality hanging out
time in bed together. With a small sigh, her wolf lay down, resting her chin on her paws. Even so, she still sent a last quick barrage of images at Jordyn: Tanner smiling up at Jordyn in bed, running with her as his wolf in the hills and desert to the west of town, and kissing her so soundly it shortened her breath and scrambled her thoughts.
Taking a long breath in, Jordyn firmly thought at her wolf, No. That sort of closeness doesn't work for me, and you know it. She squashed a sudden flash of pain at the memory of the worst moment of her life. Then she pointedly raised her eyebrows at the tablet in Sean's hands. Hurry up and finish that, would you? I'd like to get out of here sooner rather than later.
Not to be fazed, Sean lightly retorted, And why would that be, huh? Got a hot date tonight with Mr. Lone Wolf? Aroooo!
he howled, dissolving into stitches.
Seriously, Sean,
Jordyn snapped, you have the maturity of a second-grader. It's amazing that you have advanced medical training and can keep a cool head in life or death situations.
Still chuckling, Sean threw up his hands. Hell, woman, you know a sense of humor is the only way to stay sane in our line of work.
Teasing grin still on his face, he bent his
