After suffering losses that would've wrecked a lesser man, Kenshin Hamasaki has resigned himself to a life without true love. His perpetual grumpiness has damaged the few friendships he's managed to forge, and his dalliances with women are superficial at best.
And then comes a chance encounter with a mysterious stranger named Marina, whose mere existence defies logic. She's led what many would consider an idyllic life, but one that's shrouded in secrecy. Marina longs to experience the limitless possibilities of Kenshin's world. Yet, sharing the truth about herself could place her entire species in peril.
These two searching souls are drawn to each other by an animal attraction with the potential to change them in ways they never could've imagined. Lurking in the background, however, is a dark presence from Marina's past, who threatens to end this unlikely pairing before she and Kenshin can fully explore whether they're destined to be together.
