He can't help but fall for her-big feet and all.

Grumpy Zach isn't interested in settling down. He's a lion on a mission, with no time for a mate. As if fate cares what he wants.

An order from his king has him guarding a peculiar stowaway who might have answers to a mystery-and causes him to question his heart.

It will take all his feline skill to keep her safe as they race to locate a dangerous treasure. As they come to rely on each other, things start to heat up.

Until the unexpected tears them apart.

But Zach won't give up without a fight, because this lion knows he's found his mate.
