Summary

Duane Livery wants the one thing he's never had—a family. He's determined to have it with Candace Anderson, his best friend's sister and the woman he's loved for years. He's well aware she feels the same way, thanks to a steamy night spent between the sheets a year ago. She's only avoiding him now because of the way that night ended—with her learning the secret of his wilder side by far from pleasurable means. Candace has lusted after Duane for years. She'd like nothing more than to give him everything he wants. There's only one thing stopping her—he's a werewolf who has hurt her in the past. She refuses to let him harm her again and is determined to avoid him and the feelings he rouses in her at all costs. Even if doing so means giving up the man she's dreamed of making hers in every way imaginable for over a decade.
