Tian's Guardian — C.A. Nicks

Book Three in the Moon Child Series

Tian is the Goddess's little secret. A Lupine hidden from the world, she knows nothing of the ways of men other than the terrible tales her mother told of the father she has never met. A wolf/human shifter, Tian wants only to continue to live a life of freedom in the mountain hut she calls home. When her mother dies the magic that protected and cloaked Tian from the world dies too, leaving her vulnerable and alone. With no connection left to humanity, Tian decides to become the wolf and live out her life on the mountains she loves. But the Goddess has other plans for her. Plans that involve sending Sol, her most trusted Guardian, to claim Tian as his own. When Sol hears about Tian, he is more than peeved to find that he wasn't told of the Goddess's little secret, hidden in the mountains for so many years. He rides with all speed to claim her and offer his protection, but Tian has other ideas. She doesn't need protecting and certainly not by a man. With winter taking hold and threats looming on the horizon, Sol must find a way to win Tian's trust and convince her that that she is as much woman as wolf. And that not all men are evil. Will he succeed before the threat closing in on them becomes real?
