A wounded warrior meets his match.... One careless mistake. Now disgraced Council agent Jamal Mousenn is left to face the devastating consequences. His only hope for returning to active duty and the life he once knew lies in an experimental procedure–and in a human woman who presents too much temptation for his peace of mind. But this shifter won’t give in easily. His only choice is to fight against the attraction... or succumb. Note: This novella picks up from events in In the Crossfire but can be read as a standalone.
