Scent of a Woman — Vallory Vance

A certain scent wafted under Ewan Hathorn's nose. He knew what it meant but did she?

Ada Trevors is searching through the canyons surrounding Haziel, Texas for an Ap-Muea -- the man by day and the screeching cat by night. Though she doesn't believe the legendary creature exists, she is certain the myth is based on something she can document.

From the moment Ewan meets Ada he recognizes her as something more unique than his adua, his fated love. She's a witch, one beautiful enough to entice the ruler of the Ap-Muea Nation. However knowing that she's too human to understand the future they would share, he resigns himself to another century of being alone. That is until Ada proves to be more powerful than he'd imagined and an Ap-Muea demands her death.

Together, Ewan and Ada must discover if the bonds of adua are strong enough to save them both.
