The Taming of the Wolf is a historical paranormal romance novel by Lydia Dare, the fourth in the Westfield Wolves series. It tells the story of Dashiel Thorpe, Earl of Brimsworth, a werewolf who has spent his life fighting the beast within him, and Caitrin Macleod, a Scottish witch with remarkable abilities. Their fates are irrevocably bound when Dash bites Caitrin on a moonlit night, plunging them both into a nightmare of passion, danger, and mystery.
Dash has always felt like an outsider among his aristocratic family and friends, who are unaware of his true nature. He has never met another werewolf, until he is invited to a country party by his friend Will, who hopes to match him with his sister Prisca. There, Dash discovers that Will and his siblings are also werewolves, and that there is a way to control the wolf with the help of a mentor. But before Dash can learn more, he is overcome by the full moon and runs into the woods, where he encounters Caitrin, a beautiful and powerful witch who is visiting her cousin.

When Dash bites her, he unknowingly marks her as his mate, a bond that can only be broken by death. Caitrin is terrified by what has happened, and flees back to Scotland, hoping to escape Dash and the consequences of his bite.
But Dash is not willing to let her go. He follows her to Scotland, determined to win her trust and love. He soon realizes that Caitrin is not only his mate, but also his salvation. She is the only one who can free him from a curse that threatens to turn him into a mindless beast. But their relationship is not without challenges.
