Blurb: You never know what you’ll find in south Texas—or what will find you.
Trent Jacek doesn’t want too much—to live on the ranch his brother owns, a few puppies to keep him company in his trailer, maybe a good man if he can find one. First he has to catch a break long enough to try. Things just aren’t slowing down on the Jacek ranch. They’ve got a barn to rebuild, and their plan to get a pack of shifter wolves off their back doesn’t seem to be working.
Then there’s the matter of the bones the police are looking for on the ranch. After a grayed, old femur was left on the porch, Trent and his brother Joe are forced to confront some things they’d never expected to. Is that solitary bone from their mother, who went missing over twenty years ago? If so, how did she end up there? If not, who is dumping people on the ranch?
Trent’s been having the strangest dreams since he’s seen that femur but can’t imagine they’re more than just dreams. He doesn’t have a lot of time to worry about them between shifter attacks, a nosy biologist, and neighbors coming by to snoop.
What Trent doesn’t know is someone has put an assassin on his tail, but it’s the assassin who will come to question everything he’s been told once he meets the vibrant, sexy man he’s been sent to kill.

Review: Trent Jacek is a handsome, sarcastic, and tough as nails kinda guy. He will stop at nothing to protect those he loves. Mahon Morrison is a big, hairy, sexy assassin bear shifter sent to kill Trent. He doesn’t realize the quickie he just had with a stranger was really Trent until the owner of the building tells him. He attempts to sneak up on Trent at his home, but instead gets soaked with a water hose, ordered to strip and walk into the house then gets knocked unconscious by Trent.
Upon awakening, he finds himself tied up with a tarantula crawling up his leg. He freaks out and shifts. After everyone calms down Mahon is informed that what he was told about Joe, Trent, and Diego was wrong. Confused he thinks thing through and realizes he’s being used to do the dirty work for Diego’s old packs Alpha. So he decides to protect them the best he can against the other bear shifters and wolves the alpha will surely send to make sure the job gets done.
Along the way, Trent and Mahon fall in love amid fighting against bear shifters, wolves and an annoying biologist. I really enjoyed reading this wonderfully written story. It had drama, action, love, intense fight scenes, and a lot of funny parts about the tarantulas and the way people reacted to them. Plus a lot of hot sex between Trent and Mahon. Bailey has delivered yet another amazing story.
Loved it.
Highly recommend this book.
