*New*New* Research scientist, Natalie Pendergast, was searching for the elusive Snow Leopard when she found something on the mountain no one believed even existed that was far more dangerous.

Natalie would never have believed an association with Billionaire Don Fillmore would be getting mixed up with the 'wrong crowd'—and she wasn't totally convinced when the Feds approached her. The attempt to eliminate her as a witness was pretty convincing, though.

Fortunately, his first attempt landed her in Raphael's backyard and he was way more dangerous than Fillmore ever hoped to be. He wasn't especially pleased to have bound himself to a human woman in his efforts to save her, but she was his, and nobody messed with his woman.
