Twyla Knight has built her life around two things: her quirky craft shop and keeping difficult men at arm's length. So when arrogant siren Ezra Thalassos sets up in her store to paint her portrait, she's determined to resist his otherworldly charm. But Ezra sees past Twyla's defenses to the passionate woman beneath. When a rival siren threatens to claim what Ezra considers his, ancient instincts awaken—triggering a mating heat that will either bind them forever or destroy them both. In Cypress City, where supernatural beings live openly among humans, some attractions are too powerful to deny. Even when they might just pull you under.
