As the pair investigate a series of odd occurrences within the Valley, they find that they can't ignore the tension growing between them.

The darkness invading Genesis Valley is more perverse than either of them suspected, and it will take the power of their bond to burn it away.

That doesn't stop him from agreeing to go, however, for one simple reason: It’s the right thing to do. Besides, with things in Genesis Valley calm for the time being, all the other shifters were spending time with their mates. Karlie, granddaughter of the dragon Ferrovax, has spent the past nine months in a prison. A fancy, country cottage-style prison, perhaps, but a cage nonetheless. There were no bars on the windows and no chains around her feet, but she knew that leaving was out of the question. The cadre of bear shifters who watched her every move prevented that. When a handsome stranger appears at her window in the middle of one of the worst storms she's seen, Karlie has seconds to decide what to do. As alarm bells ring and guards come rushing, the stranger promises her safety and a way out of her prison. But she hasn't forgotten that blind trust was what got her into trouble in the first place. This is a standalone novel with NO cliffhanger. less
