He's running out of time. Only she can save him.

Zeke Gordon has a problem—one that could set the world ablaze.

His Dragon's Rose, the magical tattoo binding him to his fated mate, is wilting. If he doesn't find her soon, his beast will lose control, and nothing will stand in the way of his fire.

Spring is the busiest season on the Motley Crewd Ranch, but work isn't enough to distract Zeke—or his restless Dragon. Everyone around him has found their mate, yet his remains a mystery. With time slipping away, all he can do is fight to hold on.

Then she arrives.

Casey Reynolds never wanted to ask for help, but when her corrupt boss threatens her, she has nowhere else to turn—except to an old friend at the ranch. She wasn't expecting six and a half feet of muscle and smoldering intensity to stop her in her tracks.

Zeke knows she's the one. But can he convince Casey to take a chance before it's too late?
