Nikki Kent thought she’d spend her entire life wandering. And hiding. She’d never wanted to put down roots or even get to know the people around her with any intimacy—intimacy was risky and she refused to put others in danger. Until she met Cooper Marquez.
Cooper hadn’t been looking for romance. His days were filled with a ranch that demanded every ounce of his attention. But from the moment Nikki set foot on his land, inquiring about a job as a veterinarian, he knew he wanted more than her help with his ranch.
Despite the sizzling attraction and the hot sex, from their first meeting something stood between them. A secret with origins in the mystical and one that had burrowed itself deep within Nikki. She needed to protect Cooper from her secret, but Cooper would risk everything to keep her safe.
