When Lydia Cross set out into the Maine wilderness on a research project, she never expected to come across an undiscovered species-and the sexiest man she had ever seen. When Eric Raven appears out of the forest, his animal magnetism sends vibrations throughout Lydia's body, inciting feelings of love and lust like she has never known. But ...what is he, for surely he is not 'just a man'?
Lydia soon finds that Eric is much more than he seems. Another creature prowling the deep Maine woods is Antony Barack, a sensuous being like no other, but very dangerous. And Anthony wants Lydia for his own. Eric must protect Lydia from Barack, a powerful shifter who will fight to the death for what he desires. But Eric will not relinquish the woman of his dreams, his Lydia, to the monster ... and the battle rages on.
