Waking up in some strange man’s bed was never big girl Kira Ardan’s goal for the day. Neither was waking up naked. Wait, naked? Someone had a lot of explaining to do and soon.

Luke Lyen is at the height of his need. He wants a mate and he wants her now. Finding the woman meant to be his brings out the lust he’s been fighting for days. If only she weren’t so stubborn, he might be able to get her to understand she is his. Then they could move on with dirty, freaky loving.

The big lion is doing things with his tongue that makes Kira’s brain cells melt. It will take more than a little danger to get this curvy woman to let go of her firm beliefs. She’s not interested in being anyone’s MINE, but maybe he can convince her to be HIS.

This book was quite good, and I really loved the world Milly Taiden as built in Raging Falls. There's hot shifters of all types, bold women, and a good dose of intrigue and excitement. Kira and Luke meet under some very strange circumstances in the middle of a horrible storm - and they're stuck together for better or worse. Of course, this is the start to a very bumpy ride on the way to happily every after.

Kira was great - at first. But after a little while she had some grating moments, but they didn't stop me from loving her and wanting more. She has an interesting back story that really adds to the progression of the storyline and mystery.

Luke was great, but I didn't find him very memorable. He was just another shifter with his animal yelling at him about finding his mate. I wanted to love him more, I have a soft spot for kitty's, but it just didn't click for me. I needed him to stand out more than he did, especially as an alpha.

I will continue reading the series. There seems to be a lot of potential and I want to see it all come to life. The setting, overall theme, and nature of the world have really drawn me in.
