Eight Second Fall

With the threat of a mysterious enemy hanging over their heads, the last thing on Cedric Barrows's mind is finding his mate. A vampire mate is even worse, but it's not easy to resist the way Cash's very presence soothes the pain inside him. Cash Gavin berated himself for months trying to figure out why Cedric ran from him, slamming the door on their budding relationship. Everyone says the shifter needs time, but Cash wonders if there isn't something more keeping his mate from him. Secrets aren't so much revealed as unraveled, and neither can believe they let things go so far. Between Cash's guilt and the new reality Cedric must face, the road to love won't be an easy one. As they're tested time and again, the pair will have to learn to trust in their bond if they have any hope of overcoming the obstacles in their path.
