Taylor Murphy has always been the responsible one, taking care of her flighty mother and managing her no-nonsense grandmother's affairs. But when she learns she's about to inherit more than just family businesses—billions of dollars and a mountain of responsibility—her world tilts on its axis. The last thing she needs is complications.

Enter Jack Tucker. Lion shifter, restaurant owner, and utterly unprepared for the whirlwind that is Taylor. He wasn't expecting to find his mate in a woman as fierce as she is independent. One touch was all it took to awaken his magic—and suddenly, their fates are bound together.

Taylor doesn't have time for destiny, let alone romance. But Jack isn't walking away. He's determined to prove that love, like magic, can be wild, untamed, and completely unexpected.

With old family secrets, shifter magic, and a battle of wills, Jack is a sizzling paranormal romance that will have you believing in fate—even when it bites.
