Steele

Steele Bennett was born with a gift, but he sees it more as a curse―he can see and speak with spirits. And when he loses his twin sister at seventeen, he wants to turn his back on life―block his heart so that he never has to feel the sharp pain of loss again... The small bar Kari Briggs runs is failing fast. She hasn't seen the owner in three months, past due notices are piling high, and her last paycheck bounced twice. And if she doesn't pay the delivery guy soon, there'll be no more supplies. She has trouble enough controlling her cat, so the last thing she needs tonight is trouble. But those guys at the bar won't listen and take it outside. Deciding to take matters into her own hands, she is shocked when a tall stranger grips her arms from behind and her cat wants to roll over and purr. From the moment Steele touches her, she knows he's her mate. And Steele thinks he can just get her out of his system with sex and a lot of it―he won't mark her and she can't mark him―no permanent attachments. But that's not how it works with a shifter, she will die if her cat can't get what she needs from him. She will love him because she has no choice―he is her mate―but that is a secret she is willing to take to her grave...
