Let the Wolf (Covert, #2) by Amy Lane

The Special Crimes Task Force (SCTF) recruits guys willing to disobey a bad order and put civilian lives ahead of their own. It is tighter than most units–when they’re not protecting innocent civilians, they’re protecting their pack. Gideon Chadwick recruits Joey Carlyle, who has worked his entire life to escape his mobster father. Learning fast, Joey loves his new job, and Gideon discovers the kid’s company doesn’t suck. Joey sees everything as predator or prey; Gideon sees every problem as having a solution. Between them, they mix instinct and reason into an increasingly volatile combination.When their passion finally erupts, it’s more explosive than either of them anticipated–and in their line of work, that could be dangerous. While Joey tries to keep up with Gideon in the and “think first and ” department, Gideon tries to remember how to think at all. Their unit’s lives depend on them, and they can’t let their pack down because they’re tangled up in each other.
