Lion in Waiting: Tales of the Were (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950196289)

Two injured shifters get a second chance at life...and love.

Matilda escaped into the wild to lick her wounds and heal as best she can from captivity and torture at the hands of people who hunt shifters and imprison them. She is a lioness, but her natural confidence has been shaken by the experience. What she needs is a second chance to live, to heal, and to find her lioness's roar once more.

Georgio is a bear of a man who has seen and done things in foreign lands that have changed him forever. It takes a lot to harm a shifter of his strength, but being blown up by an Improvised Explosive Device just about did the job. He is looking for his lost sense of purpose, and something drives him to keep looking for the lost lioness when everyone else gives up.

When these two heart-wounded shifters finally meet, it's just possible they will find their second chances start with each other. But the hunters are still hunting Matilda and they're going after her only human friend to try to recapture her. Surprises, secrets, and reclusive billionaires notwithstanding, the bear and the lioness will have to come to terms with their sizzling attraction, and bruised hearts, if they're going to forge a new future together.
