Despite their opposite social classes, a bond grows between them, and
Victoria begins to feel emotions she never expected for the passionate
Dash. But when the Slasher strikes close to home, Dash and Victoria
realize that the boundaries of polite society are far from the only
threat to their happiness... Views: 27

All that changes the day her first love, Nathan, finds her and brings her back home. He's not letting her go, not again. As alpha, he now makes the rules and he's decided to hell with the laws, he wants Dana.
Except Dana's changed since she left. Maybe the pack ways aren't so bad after all and when she decides to accept fate... she finds love times three.
**Review
A reverse harem, erotic paranormal romance.
*"What I loved about this novel is the well defined characterization and plot, which distinguishes it in comparison to other ménage shifter novels. Each of Dana's mates are characterized as individuals rather than just the fun one, the serious one, and the intense one.
...As always Ms. Langlais' writing makes for a deliciously sexy read.Her superlative storytelling enthralled me till the very last word. "* - says Claudette of Romance Junkies Reviews
