has left her apartment and studies to move to the small town of Antler Pointe. Being the non-shifter sister of the local pack Leader is pretty lame, but she throws herself into helping with her brother's kids and working in her sister-in-law's magical garden. Anything at all to keep the dark thoughts at bay. But it's when she locks eyes with a tattooed jaguar shifter that Ramona rethinks what it means to be seen.

Río's days in Antler Pointe have already run out. He's overstayed his usual six months maximum in the little town and should be moving on to the next. After eight years on the run, he's used to the rhythm by now, but he's already put down a few extra roots in this place. And when he keeps stumbling across the non-shifter Wolf girl with long legs and honey eyes, he feels an even stronger pull to stay.

Ramona and Río are both floating through life until they collide in a rich and passionate summer romance. So used to living with no true home, Río is unwilling to let this thing stay temporary, and Ramona is terrified to let her Jaguar go. But a greater threat is looming on the horizon. One that endangers the Antler Pointe Pack and has the potential to blow Ramona and Río apart completely. Will they put their new love before the blood ties of family? How far will they go to protect the ones they care about? And how the hell do they fight a damn shifter mafia?
