Self-governing and careful to stay under the radar, their cover is nearly blown when the archaeological dig that Valkyrie Lorin Schlessinger has worked for years—where she’d just discovered evidence of their ancient ancestors—is vandalized. When help finally arrives, she doesn’t expect to see her longtime co-worker and professional nemesis, werewolf geologist Gabe Lupinsky. Or be pursued… Gabe was flattered to contribute to such an important project, but he knew from experience that working with Lorin could be a challenge. Talk about opposites: She was exuberantly physical, and he was more cerebral. Where she was free-wheeling, he was disciplined. As a member of the Underworld Council, she was practically royalty. She was hot, he was not, but they still struck sparks off each other with every discussion and decision. The chase is on… As the threat intensifies, the sparks turn into a sexual conflagration neither can control. Can he convince her that opposites can attract for the long haul? less

As they work together to neutralize the threat, Tia and Wyland soon realize that not only do opposites attract, but that the end result can be positively magnetic… less
