Elise — Karen Nichols

Elise Winston was working her way to being a full fledged reporter. There was just that little detour through being a traffic reporter, first. It was a good idea. She had a plan. But while out on a routine report about maintenance and delays, a golden story fell into her lap. The gold slowly began to peel, though. First, the video man she'd worked with for over a year, showed some true racist colors against shifters. Then her apartment was broken into. There was evidently a lot more to the missing heiress story than she first thought. She'd been the one to break the story that the daughter of a major anti-shifter politician, was a cougar. And not the kind that chased younger men. This was a woman who'd been drugged and didn't know what she was. Until now. Then she met Seth Anderson.
