Everything she's ever wanted is under threat, but Zelda's used to heartache and disappointment. This time, she isn't backing down. She's been through too much to quit. Determined, she sets her sights on her goal. A goal that definitely does not include falling for the tall, handsome man who keeps popping up at just the right time.Stone Barlow's not a complicated man. If he can buy up land and turn a profit, then it's a good day. If he can invest in a lucrative business, even better. He doesn't have time for love or finding his mate. Especially not when he sees how it's turned his buddy into a domesticated dragon. But when Stone is invited to Beast's place for a family barbecue, he's immediately taken by the curvy red-headed bombshell. She's aloof and quiet, but Stone can see a fire inside of her. The flame calls to him.Unfortunately, Silver Springs is a dangerous place to be when you owe money to the wrong people. Zelda's on the hook for her father's debts, and life just keeps throwing her curveballs. Stone's willing to do anything to protect her, but Zelda's too used to fixing her own problems. If she gives Stone a chance she just might get everything she's ever wanted.

Poor Zelda. When is it ever going to be HER time. With her mother leaving her and her fathers gambling addiction, she's pretty much raised herself. She is a job she hates, just because it means she has enough to look after her father. Not that he's notice, he's far too caught up in his pity party. When her dad starts missing his meds to pay for his gambling addiction, Zelda has about had enough. She returns to the town she associates with everything she hates. But her cousins refuse to allow her to wallow or hide from them any longer. She is coming to the family BBQ, even if they come and drag her to it. But whilst there she catches the eye of Beast's friend, Stone. She isn't scared cos he's a shifter, more because her ex was a shifter and didn't tell her, the one thing she can't stomach after her childhood. Stone is besotted and has to find someway of getting his mate to accept him. But his plan goes pear-shaped when an omission, more than a lie lands him in hot water wth Zelda. Zelda is not an easy nut to crack. She gives Stone a hard time, unnecassarily at times, but she is also hard on herself. She refuses to see what a good man Stone can be if she can just get past some of her own issues. Great little read and I love the Primrose family!
