Synopsis
A cougar who can't stop moving. Rio Blackwater has been running since he was nineteen — seasonal work, new cities, no roots. When a summer bartending gig on Block Island puts him in the path of a scent he can't explain, he follows it into the woods of northern Rhode Island. And doesn't come back.
A snow leopard who stopped. Tenzin Dorjee came home from thirty years of military service to bury his parents and walk the boundary of a hundred silent acres. Six years alone. Two graves. A truck that starts on the second try. He wasn't waiting for anyone. The leopard disagrees.
A bond that changes the shape of everything. Fated mates are supposed to be the answer. But Rio needs people the way he needs air, and Tenzin's solitude isn't a wound — it's the architecture of his life. When a restless cougar and a quiet leopard try to build something that holds them both, they'll need more than a bond. They'll need a foundation.
Fated mates. Found family. Big cat shifters who earned each other the hard way.
