Recipe for romance: Mix together a small-town sheriff, a big city girl, and add a dash of danger It's always been Gina Iovino's dream to have her own restaurant, something upscale and cosmopolitan. When she agreed to run the restaurant and tavern at her best friend's historic inn in Vermont, Gina grossly underestimated just how rural it was. She misses bright lights and a busy social life. The place does have one advantage: hunky bad-boy-turned-law-enforcement-officer, Sheriff Shawn Johnson. But could he ever fall for a woman with so many secrets lurking in her past? Shawn's just as attracted to Gina, but anything between the sheriff and the chef has to go on the back burner while he's battling a local opioid scourge and trying to get re-elected. Besides, how can his small town compete with the big city excitements she's used to? And there's another feeling he can't shake: Gina's hiding something from him. Then Gina's past shows up on her doorstep in the form of a jail bird mafiosi father and her ex-husband wanting to feature her on his cooking show. Is she ready to give up Manhattan for the mountains? When Shawn's potential drug informants turn up dead, does it have anything to do with Gina's illicit family connections? It's a recipe for danger when the lovers wind up in a killer's sights.

With unnatural strength and inexplicable speed, the family is dangerous. Despite the feeling in his gut, Jack can't resist the mysterious Mara Maitland. When he uncovers her secret, it does nothing to deter his craving for the woman. As the clan's first female enforcer, Mara's job is simple: protect her pack at all costs.

And now, with the multi-national corporation, Denon, determined to exploit them for their gain, Mara is forced to team up with her least-favorite human, Jack Buchanan to protect her species. The more Jack gets under Mara's skin, the more she can't resist him. Suddenly, this tough and controlled enforcer is falling for a man she never dreamed she could love.
