Like every member of his race, Third Prince Malachi longs to meet a potential mate, one of the rare individuals who is perfectly compatible with him. As a hunter for the race of tiger shifters known as Tseng Tse, it is his duty to hunt down supernatural threats. While hunting a fugitive of his own kind, Malachi meets Pepper, and immediately knows this incredible woman is his potential mate. Pepper is determined to live a quiet life, and that doesn't include a supernatural lawkeeper or the world he brings with him. The chemistry is off-the-charts, but it's the warmth and care that lies beneath Malachi's dangerous, mysterious exterior that wears away at her resolve to walk away. But when the very fugitive that Malachi is hunting fixates on Pepper as his next victim, Malachi must convince Pepper to accept him before it's too late.
