Heat that cannot be denied and passion that cannot be ignored.
Karintha is capable of heading her jaguar pack—alone. Though she’s the Alpha of her pack, the elders have chosen a mate for her. She not only has to battle the one shifter she’s lusted after, but her own treacherous body as well.
Xander decides to do the right thing, even while his libido protests otherwise. He’ll offer to leave the pack, allowing Karintha the freedom of choosing her own mate. But walking away isn’t an option when barely restrained passion explodes in spite of his best intentions.
