Draven is a member of the Big City Pack, but right now he just wants to be alone for a while so he’s gone to his house on Buck Lake for a little R & R. Draven is one of the senior members of the pack and recently helped expel a younger pack mate because of a man’s actions. Unfortunately Draven had thought the younger wolf was a friend so it stung twice as bad which is the reason he needs a vacation.

Wyatt has been looking forward to his vacation on Buck Lake but it hasn’t started out like he wanted. When he took out the boat it just stopped on him, wouldn’t restart and of course he forgot to check and make sure there was an oar in the boat before he took off. Now Wyatt is drifting and trying to make the boat engine start up again. Though luck might finally be on his side as someone heard him on the shore and is offering to help.

Draven is amused by Wyatt’s predicament and helps him out just to learn that Wyatt is his mate. Draven has always known that his mate would be a man and what a tasty man he is. Wyatt can’t believe how sexy his rescuer is and wonders if he might just be gay too. When both Wyatt and Draven realize that not only are they attracted to each other but also both want to do something about it, the passion is hot and fast. Draven knows he needs to tell Wyatt about being a wolf before it goes any farther and yet when the time comes passion takes over. Before Draven can tell Wyatt, he learns about Draven and mating the hard way. Draven has waited for 1500 years to find his mate, there is no way he will let revenge tear them apart.

What starts out as a vacation turns into a passion filled future for two men in Werewolf Claimed. Draven just wanted some down time away from his pack for a bit and never expected to discover his mate. Wyatt’s boating misadventure turns into meeting the man of his dreams. I loved watching as both Wyatt and Draven danced around their attraction to each other trying to figure out if the other man was straight or not. Even though their passion was fast, I enjoyed seeing that it wasn’t the only thing between them – there was comfort, the need to protect and humor as well. The confrontation between Draven and the lone wolf proved the lengths Draven would go to keep his mate safe. Werewolf Claimed takes hot passion and shows all the other aspects that combine with it to bring a true love.
