Call of the Wild People always told me to be careful. That my wild animals would hurt me someday. But they didn’t know what real pain was. A bite, a scratch, a broken bone from a mountain lion was nothing to what humans could do—with just their words. I don’t need anybody. Kendall MacKenzie, damaged by life and alone in the world, does need ex-bounty hunter Brett Carrington’s help to build her wilderness animal retreat, but she hates what he does—the hunting. And he hates what she’s doing. He calls it a zoo. She wants a safe place for animals—but with Brett around, she really needs one for herself. This is a standalone novel in the Carrington World.
