Contains a shifter whose scars run deeper than skin, a human who has the heart of a shifter, and a snowstorm that's sure to have them both reaching for warmth.

But finding himself on Danica's doorstep in the midst of a travel delay and an incoming snowstorm? That stirs something inside that Nevan didn't expect to feel ever again-a passion that is sure to heat this snowy winter eve.
When another steps in to claim Danica as his own, Nevan accepts the challenge. He's found his second chance and will do anything to keep his mate.

Klappentext
Danica Welsh was born to be the leopard pack healer. An accident involving a drug induced youth left her badly burned and scared-emotionally and physically. Without the ability to heal by touch, she secludes herself to the edge of town, away from Ashwood Falls' overly concerned citizens. All hope of mating and family become a distant dream. When she finally starts to accepts the long, lonely existence ahead of her, a stranger crashes into her life, and her heart.
After Nevan Mathews' fiancée died three ago, he submerged himself into his work, cutting off all reminders of a life he dreamed of with the woman he loved. He lets his step-mother talk him into taking the first vacation in five years to visit for the holidays. But an accident delays his travel plans, sending him to Danica's doorstep and raises a need he thought he would never feel again.
Can they tear down the walls around their hearts and submit to the passion before another claims Dani for his own?
