Tragedy left him without a mate and he swore never to claim another.
Magic isn't the same after loving and losing, but he's determined to keep from repeating his past mistakes. He and his werecats made a promise that their clan would always be a safe place. Especially for females. That means no mating. It's the rule they all agreed on, but one-by-one they want to break it. None of them know the risks like he does, and he won't let it happen on his watch. Until she shows up, challenging his resolve and conjuring feelings he locked away long ago.
She wanted to help, but found secrets instead.
Josie came to Lake Haven to help a friend in need. Nothing like a bit of charity to distract from her own life spinning out of control. Maybe if she can rub shoulders with the broody leader of the group, some of his ahem, control will rub off on her. If not, at least maybe something else of his will. But a secret, ten years in the making, throws her into a world of harsh realities, where she is somehow mated to the one panther shifter hell-bent on staying single.
This is Magic's last chance to get it right. It's time to make peace with his past so he can embrace the future he deserves.
