Now sheā€™s trapped, an unmated female shifter about to be sold off to the highest bidder. Maya is ready to fight her way outā€”until the most dangerous, powerful man sheā€™s ever encountered arrives to set her free. ā€¦ ā€œThe queen of paranormal romance. ā€¦ I love everything [Feehan] does.ā€ā€”#1 New York Times bestselling author J.
