A decade ago Katy Chavos was a proud misfit who had her heart broken, crushed by a man who drew her close with one breath and pulled away the next. He left a mark she's done everything in her power to erase. But when Katy's job brings her back to the hometown she couldn't wait to escape, seeing Dane again awakens something inside her that won't be tamed... Dane Vanderale isn't like other Breeds.
As a hybrid he's stronger, more primal, and more determined to hide it. He's also certain that Katy is not his mate - not that that stops him from wanting her with every part of his soul. He knows he hurt her deeply and he intends to make things right, but she is dead set on keeping him at arm's length.
Despite their painful history, Katy can't deny the intense attraction she still feels for Dane. And before long, it will be impossible for either to deny the truth that has been in front of them all along...
