Fey enchantment has marked her life until she finds the truth about herself and locates love in the strangest of ways. Eileen has always known she couldn’t control her shifts. She also knows that it is not normal to shift into hundreds of different animals. When she is declared close to her heat, she is ordered to the Crossroads and her payment for the transport causes a stir. Her claw is that of a chimera and the enchantment that she thought was binding her, in fact, wasn’t doing anything at all. Harris has been at the Crossroads for a few days, and when he sees a woman dressed to the nines in a classic manner, he is enthralled. When she is spunky and direct, he is charmed, and when she touches his hand, he is smitten.
