First a Marine, then a black ops agent, Victoria knows the military is where she belongs …until a sniper’s bullet changes her life. Trying to prove she’s not washed up, she rescues a young man from kidnappers. When the dying boy transforms into a cougar—and bites her—she learns of a hidden society. He begs her to inform his grandfather of his death and to keep the secret of the shifters’ existence. She can’t refuse, but what if the creatures pose a danger to the country she swore to protect? As guardian of the shifter, Calum wields the power of life and death. When an intriguing human arrives in their wilderness town, he and his littermate are concerned. Not only is the little female hiding something, but she is far more appealing than any human should be. While investigating, Victoria begins to fall in love with the werecat brothers and the town as well. For the first time in her life, she might have a real home. Her hopes are crushed when a deadly enemy follows her from the city, and the shifters discover she knows their secret. Now nobody is safe—least of all Vicki.
