Ryland Brolin is a walking time bomb. For years he's kept the monster inside him locked away, allowing him to create a vast business empire and interfere in benevolent ways in his brother's lives. Now that they are both happily mated, he has one last thing to do: shut down the Bear Canyon Brawl and end the violent legacy their father left behind. The only problem? In the process, Ryland has finally discovered his mate. Lea Atherton knows it was a mistake to let her training sessions with billionaire Ryland Brolin end with sweaty sex on a gym floor. He's the last person in the world she could be with, no matter how incredible he made her feel. She's headed to Bear Canyon with a secret agenda, and she's not going to let Ryland's fallen-angel beauty or magic hands distract her from what she has to do. She has one thing to focus on: vengeance. This year in Bear Canyon there are secrets around every corner. As Ryland and Lea are drawn together by the mysterious connection between them, dark forces from the past are closing in on every side. And if Ryland wants to survive this years Brawl and win his mate, he may just have to make peace with the monster inside him, and forgive himself for the monstrous mistakes of the past.
