He tried the whole friend thing years ago and all it did was destroy his life. Since then he has thrown himself into school and is ready to graduate with his masters, years ahead of schedule. When all you have is school and work, you know where you stand, and you don't get hurt again. When an acquaintance forces him to go to a warehouse party with her, Cameron finds himself in his own personal hell. He's stuck in the line for the bathroom listening to someone have sex. When the two men emerge, Cameron is disgusted by the talk, dark, and handsome bad boy biker working the crowd. When the biker shows an interest in Cameron, he makes it clear that he wants nothing the biker has to give. Inexplicably though, Cameron cannot get the biker off his mind. Bryn Keith is a name that will just not leave his thoughts. When Bryn keeps pursuing, Cameron knows he should push him away, but can feel himself getting pulled in. Danger and secrets large enough to destroy everything are lurking around the edges of this love story. Can these two opposites find a way to make it work? Bryn Keith was tired of waiting for his mate to come. He watched as his clan one by one found their fate-destined love and yet he was still left empty-handed. Bryn decides to throw caution to the wind and live each day like it's his last. He is hell-bent on sampling all the sexual delights Laramie has to offer. That is all well and good until his exhibitionist side puts him on a collision course with tawdry bathroom sex at a warehouse party. He realizes to his horror that his mate has witnessed the entire spectacle and is now repulsed by the sight of him. How can Bryn win over his mate and not lose his one and only chance at a forever love? Bryn needs to show his real self, the kind and devoted man that lies beneath his bad boy persona or he is at risk of losing everything and failing his quest. less

He lives at the Gatehouse on top of the mountain outside Laramie, Wyoming, with the rest of the Dragon Inner Circle. Jude watched as Clan Keith and his brother Knights found their forever mates and wondered when his forever love would present itself. He wouldn’t have to wait long. The circle had a problem on their hands. They owned the entire mountain on which they built their compound, except for 20 acres at the base of the mountain on the South side. The dragon circle and Clan Keith had tried for years to secure the purchase of that land and were met with failure each time. The owner refused to sell and maintained near-complete isolation. After dealing with the jackals who had come threatening Rafe’s mate, they got too close to that 20-acre property and caused damage, causing the owner to file a complaint with the Dragon King. Jude found himself sent to clean up the mess his brother Grey had made. Grey had further antagonized the owner, a wolf shifter, causing him to involve his Alpha Premier and the paranormal council. As Jude confronts the wolf shifter, he finds his dragon strangely drawn to the man. Jude can’t figure out why his dragon is so restless and attracted to the man, Kai Beckett. Jude can’t smell anything that stands out other than the scent of a wolf. What Jude doesn’t understand is that Kai is hiding a secret that runs to the very core of them both. He’s a man sheltered from the world, haunted by his father’s words and his mother’s actions. Jude and Kai Beckett are mates, but Kai is hiding with the aid of magic. Kai believes that he has to hide to protect himself from being bonded to an all-powerful mate who would own him and destroy him. Kai lives in fear of finding his mate and ending up like his father. What Kai doesn’t know is that he’s living in the shadow of his father’s lies, and only through Jude will he ever find his way out of the darkness. Can Jude figure out the truth and win over his skittish mate? His very life and the harmony of the Dragon Circle will depend on it. less

Most of his brothers and their fellow dragons of Clan Keith have found their forever mates and settled into the life of bliss and fulfillment. Meanwhile, Grey is left to still troll the Red Lion looking for company. He loves his brothers and their mates; he just wishes fate would smile on him as well. One night at the Red Lion, confused as to why his dragon was uninterested in everyone they met, the moment came. He saw his fate-chosen beloved walk across the bar, and his world shifted. Soon he had the man in his arms and his bed, ready to begin forever. Grey can hardly believe his luck. Never has a mating gone so smooth, until it doesn’t. Grey only leaves for a few moments, and his mate is gone, disappeared into the Laramie night. Grey is frantic. He doesn’t even know Peter’s last name... Peter Smith is enraptured by the man at the Red Lion; he is everything Peter has been looking for in a hookup. Peter doesn’t dare hope this will be anything more. Once he’s in Grey’s arms, he allows himself to dream and hope and wonder; maybe this is for more than just tonight. But when he awakes to an empty bed, he knows the drill. He grabs his clothes and makes a quick exit. He’s sad, but at least he had tonight. He’s away for work for the next few days, so that should give him the space he needs to forget how good it felt in Grey’s arms. If only he knew his last name or why he left. Little does Peter know that something very important to his future and the future of the Laramie circle is now growing inside of him. Can Grey fix what he has broken? Can he make Peter understand that this is forever? Can he stop the forces arrayed against them from causing harm to his mate and his unborn child? Fate is never wrong. less
