Returning to her home state of Maine to investigate a possible Chupacabra killing, Sophia Black meets Clint Beltaire, lean, dark and sexy. From the moment she meets him the heat between them is incendiary, the sex erotic and the pleasure beyond her imagination. Clint takes her in ways that fulfill all of her fantasies and teaches her ways to please him. The Maine air might be cold but in Sophia's motel room it's beyond boiling. Clint works to help her with her case, using his knowledge of the area in which he grew up. And as they learn each other's secrets it's obvious to both of them that they are meant to be together. Mated.
