Los ideales que la llevaron a unirse a la Alianza no se condicen con la realidad diaria, y anhela algo diferente. Cuando ambos se conocen, saltan las chispas e incluso comienzan a oír los pensamientos del otro, tal como solo los verdaderos compañeros pueden hacerlo. Pero Henry ya tiene una compañera a la que le debe su lealtad, más allá de sus desavenencias. Si Henry y Gail no pueden ser amantes, al menos pueden aliarse en una nueva causa: la formación de una Nueva Alianza. Lo que sigue a continuación es una batalla entre la sensatez y la emoción, la lealtad y el destino. Esta novela corta de romance sobrenatural es la quinta entrega de la serie "Hombre Oso Escocés".
