ER nurse Doone McFarlen has always kept her life orderly and her emotions locked away. Until the night she’s dragged—literally—back into work to sew up a wounded soldier who turns out to be anything but ordinary. Major Cullen Dixon’s injuries put her face-to-face with his brother, Dr. Falkner Dixon, a newly minted physician with secrets of his own…and eyes that make her forget every rule she’s ever followed.
When a mysterious fire destroys Doone’s apartment, Falkner offers her a safe place to stay—but “safe” isn’t what she feels when sparks fly between them. Falkner knows the truth: she’s his fated mate, destined to share his life and his shifter world. Convincing a fiercely independent human nurse that magic—and love—are real might be the toughest challenge this gorilla shifter has ever faced.
Caught between desire and a family of protective shifters, Doone must decide if she can trust her heart—and a man who’s part beast—to heal her soul.
