Tinder Quartin is a tigress who's a mercenary, taking the jobs she wants. Protecting a man, she despises for his past transgressions but needs, she is introduced to another shifter who isn't at all like she is used to. He's different, stronger, faster, so much more dangerous. But she isn't without skill and leads him away from his target.
Snyder Hedges can't get a bead on the scent that has his tiger nearly out of control. For the first time in his life, he disobeys an order and tracks the scent instead of his target. Finding her again, near another male, he nearly attacks them both, but again, she protects the other and he realizes she is his mate. She's hard to keep in his sights but he isn't about to let her go. When others come for him, she is there to assist him, making him all the more confident they are meant to be. In his mind the only option is to survive, and he will let her know she is His Tigress.
