Take over a family group and father the next generation of gorilla shifters. Too bad he has no interest in that future. His eyes and heart have been on a buxom beauty who works at the bar his Lowlander Crew hangs out at. Three years and he's had to keep his distance to protect her from his guards, but she's noticed his silent attention, and now she's showing up in unexpected places, tempting him to break all the rules. And the closer he gets to Layla, the harder it is for him to accept leaving her behind. Layla Taylor is baffled by the sexy shifter who watches her work.
