Alpha lion shifter Darren Handler is a successful defense lawyer with more than enough cases. He doesn’t need another. But when Gerri Wilder waltzes into his office, asking for his help with the most mismanaged case he has ever seen, Darren has to get involved. This lion doesn’t sleep when there’s an injustice!

Hailey Thornby’s life is not what it should be. She was tried and convicted for crimes she did not commit, and her sentence is only the beginning of her troubles. She isn’t safe, and the people who framed her don’t want her free. When Darren Handler offers to represent her for her appeal, Hailey has hope … for all of two seconds.

The cellblock is no place for an innocent woman, especially not when she is a shifter’s fated mate! Good thing Gerri Wilder knows all kinds of people. Justice might be served, but love just might save the day.
