was ovulating, and he’d never
smelled anything so potent, so intoxicating. He had to fight his
instinct to stalk and mount her. He wanted nothing more in this
moment than to claim her right now. Right fucking now! Feeling his
control slipping, relief washed through him remembering she was
taken. If she wasn’t taken, he knew there’d be no way to stop
himself from claiming her.
    Since she was
already taken, his humanity would prevail. It was a curse to his
kind. A mountain lion shifter. His family was the only ones he knew
of in the area, so they had to maintain their distance to ensure
their protection and others’ safety.
    Needing to stay
focused, Josh raced back toward his brothers, but one last thought
nagged at him.
    If she looked
anything like she smelled, he was in trouble.

About the Author
     
    From the sweet
stories of first young love to the hot, hot, hot erotic stories and
everything in between, Mandy loves to read and write about romance.
She dabbled in writing throughout adolescence and justified
studying it in college under that wonderful umbrella of liberal
arts. Living in Arkansas, she figured writing was a dream and not a
career, so when she went back to get her master’s degree, she
studied business. It wasn’t until she was staying up late to
write—after working full-time, spending time with the family, and
studying mind-numbing business nonsense—when she realized something
had to give. The love of writing prevailed. She still lives in
Arkansas with a few classes shy of an MBA but now with more time to
submerge herself in her craft. Visit her at http://www.mandyharbin.com .
