    Denver As bone-deep tired as I was when I staggered home from my shift, restorative sleep remained elusive. I spent the entire afternoon tossing restlessly, blackout curtains useless against the daylight. and a brain wired to maximum voltage. It unsettled me how profoundly my brief contact with Josie had affected me—a physiological jolt unlike anything I could recall. Then again, I’d spent years avoiding close entanglements to prevent exactly this kind of nightmare. I tried to rationalize it: it had simply been years since I've had close physical contact with a lady. I’d always been rigorous about avoiding scent-marking, acutely aware of what my natural pheromonal potency could trigger. Which was why I hadn’t touched anyone the way I’d touched Josie yesterday. The soft honeysuckle trace of her scent had simply caught my nervous system off guard. Nothing more. None of it explained why I still couldn’t sleep. By nightfall the sharp chime of my bedside phone shattered any re

  • Prescription For A Mate    Marked By Mr Big Bad

    *Josie* Running into Denver Taylor at work is about as rare as spotting an alpine falcon downtown—which is to say, it never happens. So finding myself face-to-face with him for the second time in one day, staggering out of the ER after a brutal twelve-hour shift, feels like a cruel glitch in the matrix. He pauses under the glass awning, looking just as startled. He’s cupping his hands to blow warm breath against his knuckles while shrugging a heavy wool coat over his broad shoulders. A sharp morning gust whips his midnight hair across his forehead. The overhead lights cast deep shadows under his high cheekbones, turning his piercing blue eyes almost black. I’m hit again by how massive he is. Has he always towered like this, or have I just perfected staring at the floor whenever we pass in the corridors? He’s easily eight inches taller than me, and at five-foot-five I’m not exactly short. “Dr. Connor?” His deep voice carries over the hum of idling ambulances. I blink, snapping out

  • Prescription For A Mate    What Could Go Wrong?

    *Josie*“What did you just say?”Leo sits frozen in his office chair, dumbfounded. “Why don’t you explain this to me like I’m five?”I pause halfway through peeling open a Twix bar. “What part of this isn’t making sense?”My best friend of sixteen years is tucked into his subterranean cubicle in the hospital basement, staring up at me like I’ve started barking in binary.It’s almost funny—he’s watched me shift into a golden-furred wolf dozens of times. Leo isn’t laughing. His pale cheeks are flushed a stressful scarlet that makes his bright orange freckles pop, a fact he deeply despises.“I don’t know,” he says, dragging both hands through his unruly crimson hair. “Maybe the part where you marched into the executive board meeting and announced that Denver fucking Taylor is your bonded mate?”Ah. That part.I’m still processing that I actually went through with it.When Denver laid out his predicament in the break room, it sounded like a late-night drama serial. I’m almost sure I scrol

  • Prescription For A Mate    A Match Made From Misery

    *Denver*I hadn’t actually expected her to take the proposal seriously. The entire notion is completely unhinged, which is likely why I’m caught entirely off guard when it comes to outlining the specifics. Truthfully, I hadn’t plotted out the finer details when the idea hit me.“Right. Convincing them.” I cross my arms over my chest, staring down at the scuffed table surface. “We present a unified narrative that we’ve deliberately kept our relationship under wraps.”“And what’s our bulletproof excuse for keeping it secret?”“You’re a relatively new attending here. How long has it been—six months?”Her amber eyes narrow into sharp slits. “Try over a year.”“Right. Apologies. Regardless, the optics make complete sense. A junior physician wouldn't want to be publicly linked to the head of a department right out of the gate. You’d naturally want to avoid any gossip about preferential treatment or riding on your colleague’s coattails. You’d want to establish your own clinical reputation fi

  • Prescription For A Mate    Mr Big Bad Wolf

    *Denver*This is a disaster.Even as the words hang in the air, I fully expect to regret them, but the literal lifeline I desperately needed has just waltzed into my lap, and I’m pragmatic enough to grab it.I know who Dr. Josie Connor is—brilliant, young, very loud—definitely not my ideal candidate for a pretend mate.But with an impending disciplinary board meeting in less than an hour over a few crucial omissions on my HR file, my options are narrowed down to zero.“You need...a mate?”Confusion softens her pretty mouth and creases the delicate skin above her bright amber eyes.It’s an insane request, but desperation makes hypocrites of us all. Especially since there’s clearly something in it for her, too.“And immediately,” I add, leaning forward.Josie taps her slim fingers against the edge of the laminate table, her mind visibly racing to process the sheer audacity of my proposal.Time is a luxury I don't possess right now, but I’ve always heard that tactical honesty works bette

  • Prescription For A Mate    What's In It For Me?

    *Josie*“Let me get this straight.” Denver takes a slow, unhurried sip from his mug, his face an absolute stone as he boils down the past ten minutes of my frantic ramble about bad setup dates, overly eager suitors, and my catastrophic fake-boyfriend lie.“You want me to play-act as your partner... solely so you can avoid getting an actual one?”“You literally wouldn't have to do anything,” I stress, leaning over the table.“Then I fail to see why you need my involvement at all.”I’ve never sat this close to Denver before. Certainly, I have never spent this much uninterrupted time in his orbit. What’s bizarre is the sharp, clinical sting of scent suppressants clinging to him—a choice I find strange, considering most male shifters carry far too much ego to mask their natural pheromones.Usually, they prefer letting their scent flood a room in hopes of intriguing an available female. Maybe it’s just a strict professional boundary for him? Or perhaps his natural scent is simply unappeali
