Desperate to escape her controlling family, Chloe Bradford
scrambles up to the housetop of her Texas home on Christmas
Eve. There she discovers a sexy stranger cloaked in shadow.
He convinces her to shed her good-girl image and give into
her most secret desires. The man's low, raspy voice tugs at
her memory as much as it awakens her passion. Is he a
Christmas miracle, or some figment of her imagination? When
he tries to leave, she follows him, eager to learn his
identity.
Zach can't stop thinking about Chloe, or their reunion on
the roof. His wolf-half urges him to reveal his identity and
claim her, but he doesn't dare. For both their sakes, he
must remain in the shadows until he can control his inner
beast's bursts of rage. After a decade of struggle he
thought he could handle his curse, but Chloe's presence
causes his control to slip. As the moon-rages become more
frequent, he knows he's slipping toward the insanity that
claims many of his kind. Only Chloe can save him, but he
broke her heart over a decade ago. Her forgiveness would be
the real Christmas miracle.
