The Dragon's Human — Linzi Baxter

It's not unusual for Kai's best friend and business partner to be a little hard to track down. Wolf shifters don't always check email. But for Noah to drop off the grid for days? Something's wrong.

Noah's trail dead ends hard against Kai's worst fear -- a lab, a place of nightmares for creatures like him. As he prepares to walk in, he hopes like hell he'll walk out again. With Noah. Preferably alive.

Lucy is thrilled with her dream job -- head scientist at a private lab, with her pick of plum projects. But lately she suspects she's surrounded by secrets. Sketchy meetings, people who arrive but don't leave, even hidden passageways. One peek behind a forbidden door, and too late she remembers why she shouldn't snoop.

Kai was ready for anything, but he never expected to meet the desperate eyes of the one thing he never thought he'd find: his mate. Worse, she's not the only complication. There's a lab full of them. And a secret that could threaten the freedom -- even the lives -- of every more-than-human on the planet.

Note: The Dragon's Human is the second of a three-book paranormal dragon shifter romance series. Each book will have a complete HEA romance, connected with a continuing plot that will conclude with book three.
