Prologue

“I don’t disagree with you, Mother. Clarissa is a very beautiful woman. But I’m not going to date her.”

Zev didn’t bother trying to hide the frustration in his voice. Honestly, how many times would he have to tell his family that he wasn’t interested in their setups? Exhaustion beating at him, he leaned against the back of the leather couch and rubbed his palms over his eyes. Sleep rarely came to him, and when it did, he remained partially alert, terrified of losing his humanity while he was unconscious.

IMO: One of the best MM romances I've recently read. The author successfully writes a believable romance where readers are shown why and how these men become a couple over time and through difficulties - just what I look for in romance.

Zev and Jonah are two very amazing, easy to love men, and I loved the fact they were best friends turned to lovers.

The dragged-out love affair slash mating made it all the sweeter when Zev and Jonah finally committed.

This is a great shifter story that gives a new view on shifters and the world they live in. Zev and Jonah are a fantastic couple. ... I loved this story. it was perfect, going from childhood best friends to adult lovers. Zev refusing to take that final step until Jonah could be all his. A perfect sweet romance with a twist of mystery. ... Cardeno C. has written a story that keeps your interest. It has an interesting shifter element and has woven bigotry, prejudice, love, overcoming circumstances, friendships and secrets together to bring us a story that is sweet with a tinge of mystery and danger. ... I will recommend this to those who love shifters, hot loving, sacrifice, strong and enduring love, mysterious happenings, a touch of danger and a very happy ending. Grabbing a cuppa and snuggling with this book is a great way to spend an evening.
