When a mysterious bear shifter saves Elizabeth from a violent robbery, her quiet life explodes into a world of danger—and magic. Ronan is gruff, protective, and absolutely not interested in letting her out of his sight, especially when a vengeful criminal marks her as a target. As Elizabeth gets pulled deeper into Shiftertown and closer to the lonely, guarded man determined to keep her safe, she discovers that sometimes the people who seem most alone are actually searching for exactly what she is. What starts as a reluctant arrangement becomes something neither of them expected—a connection that challenges everything Ronan thought he'd lost.
