Pepper McGraw

One Sad Kitty Pepper McGraw

She never imagined life without her brother or life with a mate. Now she has to deal with both. Julie's traumatic past left her disengaged from the world around her. The only person she truly trusted was her brother, Tyrus. Now Tyrus is dead and she has no idea how she'll survive the next hour, let alone manage the rest of her life. For ten years, Brian has restrained his inner cheetah, refusing to claim his mate. He knew Julie wasn't ready, would probably never be ready, for the truth or intimacy of their bond. In the aftermath of tragedy, though, Julie's spiraling downward, and Brian will do anything to save her, even if it means claiming his mate before she's truly ready. Warning: This book may have possible triggers (grief, depression, childhood abuse). Of course, it's also pretty steamy!
