Her budget would be tight, and she'd have to make the trip alone because her sister drained her checking account, but despite the lack of funds, Kelly was ready for the new adventure -- anything to get away from her family.

Devon Wakefield was the tenth Marquess to the house of Wilkshire and a dragon shifter. Since the death of his father, he had been lord of the castle since he was ten. His life lacked only one thing -- a mate -- but he was in no hurry to find one.

Kelly was sorry to see her vacation end. One more stroll around the beautiful countryside then she'd have to go back home -- to what she didn't know. Her sister, Rachel, was so angry that Kelly didn't pay for her trip that she set fire to Kelly's apartment. There was nothing really to go back to, but she'd deal with that when she returned. In the meantime, she would enjoy her last couple of days in England. However, Kelly was unprepared for the sudden rain shower, and in the rushing water she lost her footing. Everything went black…
