Her family or her heart? She made the wrong choice once before. Can she survive it a second time? Because of one bad decision-a no good, lying, son-of-a-bitch of a man-Kira Jackson became estranged from her tight knit family. She would do anything to rebuild the relationship with her bear clan instead of the life she is currently living. Alone. So when she meets the sexy shifter, Nash North, it doesn't matter how hot he makes her blood boil. She's not about to make the same mistake twice. From the moment Nash lays eyes on the curvy, sassy she-bear, he knows she's something special. She's also trouble, because Kira is the exact opposite of what he should be looking for in a mate. With every instinct in his body going wild, his animal is unleashed with a ferocity Nash has never experienced before. He's not just attracted to her, Nash needs her. Kira can't deny the attraction between them, but she can never let anything happen with Nash. Certainly nothing serious. While the man is a sexy as sin, he's too cocky for his own good, and worst of all...a wolf. If Kira gives in to the need that runs through her veins, she'll put everything at risk-including the possibility of ever reuniting with her clan again. Faced with the impossible choice between love and family, Kira must learn whether to trust her instincts or whether she's destined to make the same mistake all over again.
