A Tiger's Gift

I'm sorry, son. Your mother had a one-night stand, and I never caught your father's last name...

Those were the words that single mother, Deja Scarlett dreaded having to ever utter to her child. The past year she has made the most out of her situation, working hard and making ends meet. She's had to think of what was best for her son, and lived her life for him. She loved her son more than life itself and knew that one day that she would have to admit to him that he was conceived during a one-night stand on Christmas Eve, and she never caught his father's last name.

He almost let his mate slip through his fingers…

Tiger shifter, Dixon Blackburn needed to find a reason to head back to Breckenridge, Colorado. He decided to have the tiger's council's retreat in Colorado the second year in a row to give him an excuse to go back. He had left something behind in the snow-covered town in the form of a curvy waitress named Deja. His tiger had thought of nothing else since last Christmas Eve, leading him to believe that he may have left his mate behind in Colorado. Determined to remedy his mistake, he heads back to the mountains and finds that he left more behind than just his mate.

Dixon isn't the only one that discovered the secret that was nestled in Breckenridge. His rival, the alpha of the lion shifters has taken an interest in Deja, and Dixon is willing to do whatever it takes to protect his newly discovered family—even it it's a fight to the death.
