Story
In a diner in the middle of nowhere, lonely waitress Addison Price has seen a lot of unusual drifters come and go, but none has ever captivated - and intimidated - her like the imposing fugitive who wields a broadsword with incredible skill. But when he risks everything to protect her, Addison's fear turns to empathy - and empathy to desire - as she learns more about her savior. Soon she's more than willing to help the crushingly sensual white tiger and his cubs in a passionate bid for freedom - whatever the cost.

Red wolf Shifter Dimitri has fought his whole life for respect. It is claimed that red wolves are tainted with coyote blood and therefore not pure. He may not be skilled at verbally defending himself, but as a bodyguard, tracker, and champion of the fight clubs, his fists are always ready for some rough and tumble. However, he'd prefer a roll in the hay with the woman who's been his oldest friend.

If Angus refuses, he risks losing his cub. He finds Tamsin but she's slippery and not about to be rounded up quietly. In fact, quiet is nothing Tamsin will ever be.

Can Tamsin convince Angus she's worth helping before she's locked away by Shifter Bureau, Collared, or perhaps killed?

Publisher's Summary
Chosen as the Guardian of her Montana Shiftertown, wolf Shifter Rae Lyall is facing opposition - for no woman has ever been selected for this powerful position. Still adjusting to the new authority thrust upon her, Rae travels to train with Zander Moncrieff, a Shifter healer, tasked with teaching her about her new role and its responsibilities.
A polar bear Shifter, Zander wears no collar and follows no rules but his own. Rae finds him arrogant and demanding, yet compelling and intriguing. Zander has no wish to mate, but the sassy Guardian is drawing him out of his shell, stirring feelings long suppressed. And when a new threat looms over Rae's home, she and Zander must race to the rescue, forced closer to danger and to each other.

Little disappointed
Finally get a strong character who is African American and former military and he turns out to be a sniveling wimp. All of the other characters are strong. The way the storyline is written he will not be included in future storylines. Im finding that these authors will not include black characters unless they make them subservient or lacking. Im not saying the authors have to write a black book with black quotes, but please write them in as strong and dependable as any other species. This shows the mentality of white authors who is afraid of the black culture and subdue them (psychologically, negatively, or harshly) in the paranormal world just like main media society. I really love the writings of Jennifer Ashley like most readers of my race so if I can advise anything to J.A. is write in the black characters as any other characters in your books not the cliche of no daddy at home, prison past, drug addicted family members, foul mouthed, slutty, never a virgin, or recovering addict. That is only 5 percent of the black population as in any culture. But write about the human part.
In saying that I will say that the shifters restrictions from the government does seem like the restrictions black people have faced in past and some in the present. The shifters ability to still function under the strict guidelines is similar to the plight of our people, that is why I related to the storyline so profoundly. That's why I was disappointed because I just knew we were going to finally have a heroic black character who will not be a side supporting character who dies and give his life up so the thriving white person can live.
I know it's sort of harsh sounding but really it is an insight from one of the millions of black readers like me who want to see themselves in the storyline as positive as the other ones.
Even the New Orleans Character could have been black. It's not hard to say chocolate brown smooth skin, or long curly, or dreaded, or braided hair, and then stick to the storyline as planned.

Goddess touched...
I loooved this story! It’s a bit different than the others and I think that’s what added an extra bit of whoa to the story.
Rae, a lupine guardian. The only female guardian, and Zander, a Goddess touched polar bear healer are an odd couple for many reasons. The Goddess has a sense of humor it seems, or she’s just a wee bit crazy herself.
The battles they have to over come, like being “captured” by a human bounty hunter determined to turn them in sets them off on a crazy train ride that has them going a hundred miles an hour to not only save their bacon but others now in their care. It’s not everyday a female guardian comes into the fold, nor is it everyday that the guardian finds a mate in the last person she would have expected.
I hope to see more of these two in the future!

This is a frisky sexy and heart warming story, it’s definitely more romantic with some serious badass woman action.
