Lara
has always relished being a thorn in Mason’s paw. When she was chosen as pride
Enforcer, it was easier than ever to get under the passionate shifter’s skin.
But with the scent of humans in the air comes a threat she’s powerless to
battle alone.
It’s time Lara unites with the one man she needs, the one man she’s secretly drawn to…as if by fate.
If there’s one thing Mason hates more than relinquishing control to a female, it’s the attraction he feels for the fiery lioness. Joining forces with Lara against an insidious enemy only makes their primal bond hotter—and the two of them stronger.
Now it’s up to them, side by side, to bring together three warring shifter clans, win the final fight and save Deep Creek.

Lioness Excerpt

One, two, three, four…
A deep breath, and the world didn’t seem
quite as red. Another breath. Don’t let
him get to you.
“Women have roles and men have roles.” Mason
cleared his throat then narrowed his eyes. “Not better or worse. Different.”
“This isn’t the Middle Ages.” Her voice was
calm. Soft but firm.
“I know. Women have babies. Men fight.”
“Wow, seriously? Women have babies and fight. You saw how much help the
lionesses were at the cave. We’d have lost a lot more lions if we hadn’t been
there…to fight. We weren’t there to nurse cubs.” He was getting to her. She
kicked at the leaves on the ground.
Only an hour or so till dark. The faint
strains of sunset were already slanting through the trees, painting an orange
glow to the surroundings, and the forest sounds were shifting to nocturnal
melodies.
“You helped a lot and I appreciate that. My
point is, why not let the men take care of you now? We aren’t in desperate need
of your help like we were at the cave, so why not let us protect you?”
He really didn’t get it. Lara started to
speak but paused. What could she say to make him understand? Did he really
think women had roles that were so defined, they couldn’t do other things too?
Or did he feel that it was his role to make sure women were safe and secure?
Regardless, it was obnoxious. And a prime
example of how tall, dark and dangerous wasn’t enough.
“It’s noble of you to want to protect the
women.” She chewed the inside of her cheek, trying to maintain her calm and
phrase things in a nonconfrontational way. No point in having him dismiss her
thoughts because he felt intimidated. “But you don’t need to protect us unless
we ask you to. We can protect ourselves. You should accept the help or you’re
going to have a lot of pissed-off lionesses. Trust me, you don’t want that.”
Mason looked deeper into the forest, his
shoulders bunched with tension. His back, broad and sloping to a muscular ass,
filled his black T-shirt perfectly. Wrestling with him wasn’t so bad, was it?
In other circumstances, it could be a lot of fun.
She might even win.
She fought the urge to run her hand over his
shoulders to comfort him and satisfy her craving. Yank his T-shirt off and
press herself against those muscles. They were definitely hard. She’d felt them
when he lay across her on the ground.
No. She shook her head.
Mason was off-limits.
