Deke thought he found the “one” but soon finds out just how wrong he is.  When things go from bad to worse, he takes off to stay with his friend, Dirk.  Although Dirk is not home at the time, he arranges someplace safe for Deke to stay.  The last thing he thought would happen would be running into Luther.  He can’t help being attracted to the other man but the last thing he plans to do is fall for a straight man.

Drawing out his Wolf is the newest book in the Wolves of Stone Ridge series.  The book touches on a subject that could be difficult for some readers. However, it is important to the story line and handled appropriately.  The main characters are two that we have already met and I was anxious to see how the author would handle their pairing.  Deke is a human but thanks to his friend, Dirk, he already knows about the paranormal world.  Luther is a member of Deacon’s pack and, while he is intrigued by Deke, he has no plans to approach the other man.  I like the chemistry between the two men and the fact that neither man is sure what to do about it.  The author handles the relationship between them in a way that makes the relationship realistic, if you cut out the paranormal aspect that is.  I especially liked how the aspect of Luther’s daughter was handled, and think the two men will have their hands full with her. 

Their relationship is not the only thing the men have to deal with, however, as not everyone is happy that the two men are mates.  I had to laugh with the way Deke tried to handle the situation he finds himself in and the howl was over the top.  

This was a great addition to the series and I can’t wait to see what else the author has planned.
