Stealing from a mafia boss is the dumbest thing Izzie Itzae has ever done. Getting lost in the mountains is a close second. But both events pale compared to meeting the one male she’s not ready for. As a nagual shifter waiting for her first transformation, Izzie’s anger and frustration grow every day-bonding with her soul mate is the last thing she needs. Hunter James knows bonding is exactly what Izzie needs, and he’s more than ready for her. He’s dreamed of her often while his shaman grandfather’s had visions of the female who can break the family curse. Hunter doesn’t care that Izzie’s a late bloomer-in fact, he’s eager for the challenge. As long as Izzie can handle his brand of proclivities, he’s sure he can tame her inner beast. When they meet, the chemistry is instantaneous, no matter how much Izzie tries to deny it. But obstacles abound, including Hunter’s ex-girlfriend, who will do anything to get Hunter back in her bed, including stooping to dark magic. A threat to Izzie’s life is the ultimate test for her. To save herself and Hunter, she must choose-cling to her stubbornness or give in to her heart’s truth. But only one will tame her beast.Welcome to the darker, sexier side of Havenwood Falls that many residents never speak of publicly, but most likely enjoy in secret.
