Faith and Tala's fake relationship turns real, but can their love survive the secrets they've been keeping? Find out in the gripping conclusion to Jae's paranormal lesbian romance.

After a carefully staged fake relationship brought them together, fox-shifter Tala and human Faith are no longer enemies. Now they're allies working toward peace between their species, and they tell themselves that's all they are.

But Faith can't help thinking Tala's interactions with her six-year-old daughter are the cutest thing ever, and Tala's fox seems to have already chosen Faith as her mate.

Pretending to be a couple grows more complicated when a kiss for the paparazzi ignites sparks that feel anything but fake.

But when an anonymous letter reveals a dark secret from Tala's past, the old distrust creeps in again.

Tala and Faith must decide: Can they risk everything to embrace the shifting nature of their relationship, or will fears and betrayals tear them apart for good?

This is the second book following Tala and Faith and book one must be read first, Enemies by Nature. This book picks up exactly where book one ended and it was quite a ride till the end.
When book one ended Tala and Faith had spent the weekend with the pack for Tala’s brother’s engagement. A weekend where Faith had a firsthand look at what being around Wrasa was like, of course, she was sent by her father to plant a bug, but her conscience got to her and her feelings for Tala and the Wrasa had changed so she didn’t go through with it.
Faith grew up with her father’s hatred toward the Wrasa a growing cancer that Faith began to question. Everyone at the engagement treated her like family believing that they were true mates never expecting that the mate scent was fake. Now Faith and Tala keep trying to convince themselves that their feelings are not real until they can’t hide it anymore.
Faith questions her feelings when she gets a letter accusing Tala of murder. As she and Tala were on their way to a gathering that would have helped bring about the Wrasa Rights Pact ensuring all Wrasa were treated the same as humans and after that letter and Tala revealing the letter was true, she ran to her father.
With what she learned she still couldn’t betray Tala until they spoke, but she wouldn’t have had time to talk because a bullet came through the window hitting her father. Evidence was found that a fox shifter was responsible for the shooting leading the authorities to go after Tala.
Did the person responsible for mailing the letter also do the shooting. Was it a Wrasa or a human, the answer would be surprising. Unfortunately, Tala and Faith finally realize that their mate scent is real but there is so much hatred directed at them that it seems impossible for there to be any hope of a relationship.
Chloe, Faith’s six-year-old daughter discovers that Tala can shift into a fox and is overjoyed. She is accepting of the differences between Wrasa and humans and is too young to have hatred rule her feelings.
This is not just a story about Tala and Faith, a human and a Wrasa it is a story about hatred, something we read about every day. It seems anyone who is different becomes a target.
But it is also a story of acceptance.
