Being together could mean death to them all, but walking away is not an option…

Bloodlines need to be protected at all costs and as a true-blood cougar Maria is expected to mate with a council-approved shifter. Too bad the one chosen makes her skin crawl for all the wrong reasons.

But running away already landed her in hot water once before. Wolf shifter Malachi Luca saved her life ten years ago, and then promptly disappeared with her heart. So much for true love.

Now time is running out and Maria is feeling the strain. Seducing Professor Silas Deacon should be a welcome distraction except the human turns out to be her mate, too.

And that damn wolf—yeah he’s back and determined to claim both his cat and his human. What’s a girl to do? Fight for love and enjoy the awesome sex, of course.

Cara’s Review
Book three of the Projects series puts us right back in O’Conner’s shifter world. Maria met her mate ten years ago, however, circumstances worked against the two keeping them apart. When Maria finds another mate, fate plays some good jokes! Maria is an incredibly strong heroine, and is nicely bracketed by the alpha males, Silas and Malachi (even their names sound sinful, don’t they?)

This book was a great read, and super-hot. Do shifters ever disappoint? We get to revisit the characters from the first two books, and find out how they are doing, which is always a plus. I think there will be many more books to come (I hope?), and look forward to reading them all.

So if you are in the mood for hot shifter loving, threesomes, okay with M/M action, and always root for the underdog (or wolf in this case!) this book will provide a fulfilling and enjoyable read for you.
