Jasper Belmont, a third-generation crystal witch, is in the final stages of opening his dream store when strange things start happening to him, jeopardizing everything he’s worked for. But then he meets his fated mate, a dangerous-looking detective whose growly attitude makes his heart race. So things must be looking up for him, right? Right? Gabriel Prescott, a hard-nosed detective who honed his skills on the streets of Chicago doesn’t know what kind of game Jasper is playing, but knows he’s up to something and is determined to get to the bottom of it. Which would be easier if he didn’t want to kiss the infuriating man as much as he wanted to strangle him. Suspicion and distrust war against attraction as Jasper and Gabe circle around each other in an intricate dance of anger and lust, unaware that danger is closing in…and is out for blood.
