Sometimes the biggest hurdle in life is accepting who you are and what you want. Joe Dallas thought he'd escaped the draw of the shifters at the Sanctuary. He doesn't mind. With his tendency to keep relationships simple, he doesn't want to get involved with a lion shifter. Then there's Ben. The quiet shifter piques Joe's attention. When Joe accompanies Ben on a rescue mission, he realizes the attraction isn't one-sided. But can a shifter and a human really make a relationship work? Joe isn't sure. Ben knows who he wants in his life and bed-Joe. The lion wants to bond with the human he desires. The difference in their species doesn't bother him a bit. Will the shifter be able to convince Joe they have a future or will fear dominate and destroy the love before it can blossom?
