Embracing His Mate

When Mason inherits a ranch from his wolf-shifter grandfather and becomes the local deputy in a small Wyoming town, his biggest concerns are property repair and dealing with the occasional criminal. The last thing he expects to find while mending fences is a gorgeous female he's convinced could be his mate. Besides helping her family run a vacation ranch, Lexi spends most of her time taking care of animals in need of a good home. She has no idea that transporting a goat will lead to an escape and literally have her falling at the feet of her handsome new neighbor. Lexi has never been good at serious relationships and refuses to believe that she and Mason can be anything more than friends. Mason's plans to romance Lexi and convince her they belong together are impeded when a group of thieves vandalize and steal from secluded properties. Will Mason and Lexi overcome the challenges fate has thrown their way, or will the elusive thieves shatter not only their newly discovered bond but also threaten the people they care about?
