Tall, dark and handsome, she's watched him from afar for years... Back in Lizard Lick after a broken engagement, Kaitlyn Turner has two things on her mind: regaining her independence and having a good night out with her bestie. Only somehow, their celebrations include hitting up the local tattoo parlour. The Tattoo parlour run by Creed, her late brothers best friend. Hot as Hades, he's the one man she knows she can't have, but the one she'd kill to have look at her as more than a kid sister. Petite, curvy, beautiful...and human. She's everything he wants, and everything he can't have. Werebear Creed is a loner in the Lizard Lick pack. Tall, powerfully built, and mean as hell, he holds rank as an enforcer despite the fact his bear prefers to stay well hidden. No matter, he can enforce pack rules in human form... even against fully shifted bears. They might call him a half-skin but no one wants to piss him off. Ever. He doesn't care what they think. Until Kaitlyn Turner walks back into town. He's wanted her for years, but she's human and he's a bear. No can do. But then an attack brings her over into his world and the path is clear. She's always been his...now he'll claim her. Even if he has to fight the whole pack to do so...
