Book description
Book three in the Southwestern Shifters Series. Six months in his
enemies hands has left Marcus Criswell a shell of the man he used to
be-or so he thought until his destined mate rescued him from a cruel
death. Six months have passed since Marcus Criswell, Alpha Anax of the
North American shifters, disappeared. Held captive, tortured and driven
to the brink of madness, he still refuses to give up. Even when his
captors abandon him, leaving him chained without food or water, Marcus
will not accept his fate. Until his fate changes with the appearance of
his mate, Nathan Grant. Now if only the two of them can survive long
enough to enjoy it. Nathan Grant doesn't know the first thing about
shifters other than he is one and should avoid all others. He's followed
that advice all of his life. Raised by humans, Nathan is more than a
little uncomfortable with the idea of being around any other shifters.
One spontaneous day spent running as his wolf in Lincoln National Forest
forces Nathan to reconsider what little he thought he knew, and to risk
his life for one very unforgettable man. Surviving isn't easy, and
Marcus is all too aware he's only a shell of the man he used to be. He
wasn't broken completely, but he's definitely fractured, and even
finding his mate might not be enough to help him heal. Reader Advisory:
This book is best read in sequence as part of a series _x000D_ A
native Texan, Bailey spends her days spinning stories around in her
head, which has contributed to more than one incident of tripping over
her own feet. Evenings are reserved for pounding away at the keyboard,
as are early morning hours. Sleep? Doesn't happen much. Writing is too
much fun, and there are too many characters bouncing about, tapping on
Bailey's brain demanding to be let out. Caffeine and chocolate are
permanent fixtures in Bailey's office and are never far from hand at any
given time. Removing either of those necessities from Bailey's presence
can result in what is know as A Very, Very Scary Bailey and is not
advised under any circumstances.
