Beacon in the Darkness - Allegheny Shifters, #3

Seamus has been living with the Steele family since they rescued him from his uncle's basement. He's in love with Alex, but he's sure Alex only sees him as a third brother. Besides, even if he doesn't, Alex is the heir to the cete's leadership, and Seamus can't imagine he'd want him by his side once he becomes alpha. Alex's world was easy, or at least relatively easy, until the council that governs the shifters in the Allegheny forest passed a new law—all the carriers, no matter their age, have to be handed over to them. Alex's father makes the decision to renovate the Bishop house, a house deep in cete territory, where the carriers will be safe. The first to move there is of course Seamus, the man Alex loves. More needs to be done, though. While everyone is working on finding dirt on the council members, keeping the carriers free and safe, and finding the two teenage carriers who've been taken, Alex and Seamus try working out their relationship. Things aren't easy. Seamus won't be safe until the council is on their side again, and no one knows when that will happen. But Alex will make sure it does, even if he has to kill for that to happen.
