author: Brennan, Grace
description: Holly White found happiness once. It was brief and over too soon, but she had it. Now she’s content—she has her routine, her teaching, and her students. That’s all she can hope for, and she’s made her peace with that. When she requests a meeting with her student’s father, the last thing she expects is the sparks that arch between them. But attraction or not, she can’t go there with him. Not only is he her student’s father, but she’s not willing to risk her heart again. Ever.Ian Gallagher walked into his daughter’s classroom intent on giving her teacher a piece of his mind. But when he lays eyes on Holly, everything inside him comes to life—his heart, his soul, and his inner tiger. It doesn’t take long for his mind to catch up to what the rest of him already knows—she’s his. He’s going to fight for her, and teach her that some things are worth the risk.But strange things are happening in Eagle Creek. Disastrous, deadly things. With someone targeting the Rocky River fighters, Ian is forced to put his courtship on hold so he doesn’t draw attention to his mate. But when the next incident involves Holly, it becomes clear that he’s on a race against the clock—to protect his pack, find the one who means them harm, and win over the woman who already owns his heart.
