Alice Cain - 2015
Well not yet anyway. But at twenty-eight I'd already given up on finding Mr. Perfect and I was honestly willing to settle for Mr. Has-a-job-and-doesn't-fart-in-bed. That is until Declan Colbert entered my life. He's perfect. Literally perfect and I have no idea what he sees in me, but hey, if the guy wants to stick around, who am I to argue? Except that…well, my cats don't like him. I mean they seriously don't like him at all, and I have no idea what to do with that reaction. Are my cats just being brats or are they trying to warn me that not everything about Declan is what it seems? Hey, maybe he's just a dog person. I mean, he does have that tattoo…

When he meets a bear shifter walking through the woods near his cabin, he’s all in and ready for whatever the bear wants to do. Derek finds the overly energetic mountain lion annoying. He won’t stop bouncing around, and eventually he has to put Kenai in his place, which sends Kenai darting off. He does want some company though, so he follows Kenai’s trail back to his cabin and invites him to the salmon pools for a feast. He thought everyone knew what went on at those pools, so he’s surprised when Kenai reveals he’s a virgin. That isn’t the only secret this mountain lion is hiding, though, and when Derek finds out Kenai is a Watcher and practically a god to the shifters despite his young age, it might be more than he’s able to handle.
