Your past is just a story you tell…

All Ava ever wanted was to forget her past and create a new future for herself, starting her own bakery from the ground up. But when a Shifter walks into her bakery and she can’t get away from him, she looks up into his golden eyes and is immediately drawn to him. But she was no stranger to Shifters, and her brain screamed one thing:

Terrell felt something he hadn’t felt in a long time: shame. He’d tried to protect his friend, a woman who spent too much time on the streets, but it wasn’t enough and now she was dead. But when he walked into a bakery close to where he had been working, he finds the one thing he never though he’d find on a job; his mate. But as he looks into the woman’s eyes, all he sees is fear and hesitation.

Terrell can’t stop until he claims his mate once and for all, and take away all the pain she has felt from her past. But it seems that as he pursues her, so is someone else…
