Description from the publisher:
Derria, like her cousins at Pryde
Ranch, is trained to take down the worst shifters imaginable. After chasing her
bounty into the Tail of the Dragon, she discovers that this mountain gem is
shifter central where they've managed to keep themselves off the world's
radar...until now.
Lakota Phillips keeps his status as a S.W.A.T. agent under wraps. No one from Clan Gunn in the Dragon knows what he does when he's away from this place. But when a fellow agent shows up for reasons that make sense to no one, what is he to do?
But that may have to wait. Kerr Blackwood, the rogue they're searching for, is a shifter from Lakota's neck of the woods. And suddenly, Derria's hunt doesn't quite pass the smell test.
Warning: This book contains hot alphas, mating heat and women who stroke their guns. Bring it on, baby!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the fourth book in the Pryde
Ranch series. It does stand on its own,
though now I’m curious about the rest of the pride…, but it also has a
cliff-hanger. The primary conflict (why
she’s chasing the rogue, Kerr, is not resolved), but it is an excellent
introduction to all of the characters and I didn’t feel cheated by it ending
where it did.
This is also a novella in the
Southern Shifters Kindle World, set in the Tail of the Dragon area in the
Southern Appalachian Mountains. In this world,
this book also stands alone and does not need any other knowledge, though there
are references to other story lines that have me clamoring for more!
I have to share my favorite
statement from Lakota. “Derria is one of
the most capable women I know. If she
could get here and ambush you alone, trust me, she’ll be fine. Besides, the newly healed claw marks on my
chest from just this morning are a reminder that when I get the urge to try to
control her, it’s best to change my mind.”
That about sums up Derria. She is doing her job and nobody, not even a
mate, will get in her way. I loved that she
immediately recognizes the mate bond and doesn’t fight it….the first time
around.
Kerr is the mystery man running from
Derria with no idea why he is being chased.
He is hot and alpha. I fell in
love with him on page one even if he was the “bad guy.”
Lakota (‘Kota to his friends) is a
basketful of secrets, but everything changes when he meets Derria. He is also hot and alpha. From first sight, he is devoted to making
Derria’s life easier and more comfortable, whether that means tracking a rogue
or finding her a place to lie down at night.
If they were food, Lakota would be
dark chocolate, Kerr a cinnamon caramel, and Derria the cherry whip that brings
them all together. Now I’m hungry for more
of them, more Southern Shifters, and a special chocolate, caramel, cherry
treat! If you’re looking for me, I’ll be
in the kitchen with a wooden spoon in one hand and my Kindle in the other.
