**Can be read as a standalone holiday story, or with T. S. Joyce's bestselling Wolf Brides series** Maya hasn’t been back to Colorado Springs in years. She’s home visiting for the holidays, but so much has changed. The boy she grew up with is nearly unrecognizable and his animal magnetism is stirring feelings in her that she can’t explain. Caught between being a lady who protects her reputation at all costs, and drifting into the scandal of her old life, Maya has to choose to open her heart to the boy who broke it, or keep the new life she’s worked so hard to build. Ukiah Dawson is a werewolf with big regrets. Living two lives between the Dawson Ranch, and a Ute reservation, there was never room for him to take care of a woman like Maya the way she deserves. Now, he’s slowly losing control of his animal, and he has no one to blame but himself. When Maya blows back into town after all this time, his wolf goes on the hunt and Ukiah is second-guessing every decision he’s ever made. She thinks low of him, and he can’t blame her. Years ago, he hurt her, but this Christmas, he is bound and determined to change the course of both of their lives. Content Warning: Explicit love scenes, naughty language, and piles of sexy shifter secrets. Intended for mature audiences.
