Julian DuCharme, a rare Spirit Bear with legendary healing powers, is finally free from the threat of death, finally free to claim his mateโbut sheโs not having it. While his Bear screams itโs time to mate, the love of his life wants to date.
Holding his Bear in check while convincing her heโs not out to control her wonโt be easy. Sheโs stubborn and a closeted geekโin other words, perfect for him.
Cynthia โCynโ Reyes, owner of Living Art Tattoos, thinks Julian is the hottest thing on two legs. That doesnโt mean sheโs going to roll over for his masculine charm. She watched her mother flounder when her father passed away, and sheโs determined to never lose herself to someone else. Not even a man who would jump the moon for her, if she asked that of him.
When the women of Living Art are targeted by a killer, Julian doesnโt think twice about pouring out his last drop of power to keep Cyn safe. But itโs Cyn whoโll give up everythingโher independence, even her humanityโto keep a terrifying vision from coming true.
One of his death.
Warning: This novel contains explicit sex, graphic language, a tattooed heroine and the Bear who loves her. Maybe heโll finally convince her to tattoo him with โProperty of Cynโ.
