Suck It Up

Nate, or Dr Franks as everyone knows him, used to be the Pride's most easy-going lion. All it took was for him to take over the town's practice and the arrival of the new nurse, Kellie, for his good humor to leave out the window. He might even start believing the rumor that she's been transferred from another Pride because they couldn't deal with her anymore.

Kellie might not like Dr Franks much, well apart from the way he looks, but she knows one thing: he might be her last solution if she wants to learn how to control her lioness. The duality between her animal's needs and her own is driving her crazy.

When Nate learns what happened in her old Pride and why, he sees red and decides to help her. Her lioness is so strong he has to take drastic measures, and they end up mated. Between his father's anger and someone intent on destroying their new-found relationship, it will be up to Nate to keep them alive…but at what cost?
