Stefan Draeger has patiently awaited his mate for four years,

the female who embodies his every desire. From the moment

he first laid eyes on her. He knew their destinies were

intertwined, though she was too young then to claim.

Now, finally of age, she stands on the precipice of pleasures

only he can provide—if he can persuade her to accept him.

Sidney Martin has spent a lifetime defying her father's tales

and restrictions, yearning for the freedom to live life on her

own terms. But when one prison gives way to another

unexpected captivity, she discovers a new realm of passion

waiting to be unleashed—a passion that can only be quelled by

a Shifter.
