Tooth and Claw - Paperback

by Lynn Katzenmeyer (Author)

Rejected and destroyed, the reviled dud of the Kootenai pack is finally exiled for failing to shift into a wolf before her high school graduation. Ten years later, Lee Fields finally has her life on track. She's part-owner of the Tooth and Claw pub, small town legend, and Easterville's own Bionic Barmaid. When her life before Easterville comes back for her, she'll have to grapple with her moon blessed mate, Kendrick Biel, and the complicated past they share.Back on packs lands, Lee will have to choose between the life she's been living in Easterville and the mate who forced her there in the first place. After ten years apart, has Kendrick changed enough for Lee to trust he could ever truly love the dud?"You knew what I was to you for years before the accident," I whispered afraid if I spoke with my full voice I'd lose control, "you should have protected me. But you didn't. You let me...." I couldn't finish the sentence. He knew what he'd allowed to happen. He'd been there. It was my first shift and the first time I'd felt the pull of my mate. The same pull I was feeling for the man sitting across the narrow bar, "you need to leave," I said finally getting the strength to repeat the words he'd said to me all those years ago, "I don't want you here."
