Gabriel Lara's life is focused on three things:

The shapeshifting mutts under his care, his tattoo shop, and his vintage bike, Rosie. He's too busy working and trying to save the world to have a relationship. Especially a relationship with someone like Carolyn Wheeler - rich, spoiled, and worst of all, human.

But Carolyn is not who Gabriel thinks she is. She's a woman of many secrets, and there is a bond between them that won't be denied - a bond that will likely be the death of them both.

In order to survive, they will either have to push past their fears and distrust or go their separate ways. Unfortunately, neither of those seem to be an option.

MIDNIGHT INK: GABRIEL is a stand-alone, shifter/vampire adult romance set in the world of the Awakening, which began in the young adult series MUTTS LIKE ME (Books 1 - 5). It isn't necessary to read the previous books in the series before this one, though it may add more understanding of some of the characters and situations.
