He loves his job welding, creating art in his funky warehouse , and dancing at the Carousal Lounge Gentlemen’s Club for fun! When danger strikes, and he ends up on the doorstep of a reclusive shifter, his whole world tilts on its axis. Fated mates are supposed to be myths, but all evidence is suggesting otherwise. Trickster’s one hundred percent on board for this new adventure, but what will it take to convince his disbelieving mate to trust what’s in his heart instead of the words in the history books? In this anticipated prequel for Sammi Cee’s new shifter world, you can expect a sexy omega who thinks clothing should be optional, a confused alpha who’s not sure what to do with said bold and confident omega, a couple of babies—because why not keep freaking the professor out—and a chosen family who knows just what to do!

    After the closeted college student has a drunken meltdown at his well-to-do family's Christmas party (involving a few bombshell confessions and some not-so-polite uses for the angel tree topper) he suddenly finds himself disowned and cut off from the family funds. Back in New York, Josh tries to put the hangover behind him as he prepares for a swanky art competition. Of course fate has other plans, and after crossing paths with a mysterious bad-boy named Luke, Josh begins to question everything he thought he knew about himself. Josh can't help but think that this unrefined biker (dreamy as he is) is the last thing his reputation needs right now. But when Luke drops a few bombshell confessions of his own and Josh is left to find out who his true friends are, the artist might just find that opposites attract. "A Lesson in Pride" is a steamy standalone novel with HEA and no cliffhanger.
