Summary: One thing I know about Terry O’Connor—the man has complicated relationship written all over him, something I’ve avoided for pretty much forever. One thing I know about Terry’s hometown, Painted Bay—it’s a long, long way from my life as a Mackenzie Country veterinarian, and dedicated, carefree bachelor. All of which should be good news. No reason to look twice at the gorgeous man currently staying at Miller Station with his daughter. No reason to daydream about his soft lips, quirky sense of humour, sexy smile, or the way he blushes whenever he catches me staring which is far too often. No reason to second guess my future plans or reconsider the no-strings lifestyle I’ve worked hard to perfect. And absolutely no reason to feel disappointed that Terry is even less interested in a relationship than I am. I should be relieved. Then why can’t I stop thinking about him and how right it feels when we’re together? Why does my heart spin at the very mention of his name? And why does the thought of moving on without Terry and his daughter in my life feel like the loneliest decision in the world?

Summary: There are times when being a legendary shifter is a plain pain in the butt, and this is one of those times... Farness Duncan, more commonly known as Ness or Nessie, had lived his life quite happily for more than three thousand years. An extremely rare kind of shifter, he lives simply, helping others through his funding foundation and traveling the world whenever he needed too. But at his heart, he called Arrowtown home. But in recent months Ness had been getting increasingly restless and even Doc couldn't help, although it was him who suggested Ness's beastie was getting ready to mate. The problem was, to who? This has to be the most ridiculous version of winging it I’ve ever done. Cyrus Marinus, gangster and great white shark shifter knew who Ness was to him the moment he saw him striding through the airport in Las Vegas. Fueled by his shark, he hunts the man down in Scotland, seeing the most amazing transformation he'd ever seen. But while the claiming part was easy, once Ness got over his shock, settling down and building a life together wasn't without it's problems, especially when Ness learns early on the type of life Cyrus was used to living. Everyone can change if they have the right incentive. While Cyrus and Ness are happy with each other, other family members are not as pleased with their mating. There was also the little issue that Ness's beastie was aching for something more, but if Ness and Cryus gave into their instincts, then one of them was going to end up pregnant. For two accomplished businessmen with world wide interests, was that really the best idea? Silly question, lol. Cyrus and Ness's story involves some unusual stains on the carpet, more than a few references to killing someone, family drama, mpreg, and an HEA because with a Lisa Oliver story, that's guaranteed.
