Even the magically inclined know werewolves don't exist. So why is her new rescue dog suddenly taking human form?When Meredith Townsend finds a dog locked in a basement at a madman's compound, her magic immediately senses a lie. She knows it isn't simply a dog, but she never expects a werewolf-since everyone knows they don't exist.But not only does this rescue "dog" take human form, he happens to be none other than Jensen King, the man she had a torridly hot affair with-before he disappeared without a trace. Now he needs Meredith's help to find his sister-and the other Shifters stolen from his enclave-before they're sold to the highest bidder at an underground magical auction.If Meredith and Jensen fail, war looms on the horizon between Aspect and Shifter societies. If they succeed, do two people from such a different background have a chance at making love work?.
