Corey Baleski has never fit in among the bear shifters of the Jade Crew. He longs for his old crew and the life he used to have. So when a member of his old crew approaches him out of nowhere, offering him what he desires most, Corey is torn between accepting the offer, and knowing what he would have to do to earn it. Corey hasn't shared his feelings with anyone before, but that's about to change... Because Jenny Hardwick may not have any experience with men, but she's quickly finding that for Corey she's up for any challenge. Except, perhaps, for facing the wrath of her mother when she finds out that her new boyfriend is a shifter. Caught between family loyalty and the emerging reality that she and Corey share something extremely special, Jenny knows she has to decide soon. When the truth behind the offer to Corey rears its ugly head, will he and the woman he's come to realize is his mate be able to outwit their foes? Or have the jaws of evil finally managed to snare one of the Jade Crew?
