Tamed

My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break ... Kat Francisco hates love. Love killed her friend, drove her mother away, and brought down a curse on her and her sister. So when a stranger comes to town and won't stop flirting with her, Kat, a powerful witch, isn't having it. Except ... except Tru St. John is so annoyingly clever. She'd rather trade barbs with him than coo sweet nothings at anyone else. But when she finally gives in to her desires, she finds that love is bigger and more complicated than she ever imagined. Tru St. John, a bear shifter, is in town for one reason: to woo Kat Francisco. He's been promised a meeting with the powerful head of the Carpathian clan, but only if he distracts Kat for a bit to give his college buddy time to finally seal the deal with Bianca, Kat's little sister. Yet with every encounter with Kat, Tru finds himself wanting not just to distract her, but to keep her forever. He was supposed to make Kat fall for him ... but he's the one falling, and fast. Will the truth bring Kat and Tru together, or drive them apart?
