Ronan

The next time my brother says "Hey, I've got an idea," I need to run, not walk away. I might be from a dragon shifter ruling family, but I'm not demanding a female mate with me. Yet taking my time and winning her over is going nowhere. So far, I've punched my card as the older neighbor who's way too nosy about the young female next door. Then I hear about what she's got planned. And I'm faced with giving her what she needs and letting her walk away, even at the cost of the useless beating organ in my chest.

Mate Ronan Jade, they said. It'll be a good match, they said. The older shifter is a walking poster of smoldering, hardworking male. He swings a hammer all day and at night... Well, that thought dominates my mind more than I'd like. The problem is that he's a great match. Superb. And I'm an inexperienced female trying to rule my clan. It'd be too easy to let him in. To let him take over. To allow him to dominate. So I try to find another mate instead. Only Ronan finds me first.
