Learning the Rules

Will he be able to convince her his feelings are real and not from sympathy?

Femi Layan, eagle shifter and second in command for The Protetors, a SAR group of shifters in Brazil has been in love with a tiny slip of a woman since he'd first laid his eyes on her. Now she is in his backyard for one of her best friend's wedding. Will he get her to see when it comes to the two of them, he is always going to be there for her?

Emily Acosta is a cancer survivor. She's also a teacher who slept with a coworker and that didn't go well. Okay, so the guy lied about being married, but still, she feels like scum. Going to Brazil for a wedding should be enough to get over her mistake and the news she's not ready to face. One problem, Femi Layan.

He's everywhere being perfectly gentlemanly. She's tired of being seen as fragile, she wants to be seen as desirable. He tells her he is waiting for her to say what she wants. Is she willing to finally let go with this one? Or will old fears keep her from learning the rules?
