Zeke Noble is finally returning home to Harper Creek after six months of captivity and torture only to find his farm in bad shape and extra senses he is not sure what to do about. Zeke needs money to get his farm back up and running; the only business willing to take a chance on Zeke is the local vet owned by Neva Harper. Zeke's attraction to Neva is fierce, but his pride and the possibility of being crazy are keeping him from getting too close.

Neva Harper is bound and determined to live her life as she wants, which is why she has gone against her parents' wishes and become a veterinarian. Now that she is cut off from her trust fund, Neva must work extra hard. Hiring Zeke Noble part-time at her clinic is turning out to be a godsend and when he offers Neva a place to stay when her apartment is getting repaired, Neva readily accepts.

SKIN HEAT, the third novel in Ava Gray's Skin series, is powerfully intriguing and packed full of adventure. A fascinating read!
