Secrets

Michelle Slade's idyllic life crumbled all around her when she was raped five years ago, her freshman year in college. Though she's worked hard since to put the dreadful experience behind her and live the life she wants working as office manager for Sterling and Lacey Aegar's investigation services and operating her cat rescue, she couldn't have known that the rape's impact would reach into her present life and put a strangle grip on all she holds dear, thanks to the evil machinations of local powerful businessman, William Carter.
As with Michelle, Casey Mitchell didn't expect that his work as an investigator would take him down a very dark path of diabolic and life-threatening research conducted by Carter Enterprises. Trained his whole life to keep his were-lynx identity and that of his colony's existence secret and protected, he now struggles with a terrible aloneness. Though he and Michelle have tried to get close to each other, their needs for safety and space keep them apart and alone in their individual struggles.
As they try to save the missing cats and put an end to Carter's onslaught, they reveal secrets that may change their lives and bring them the love they long for, or not.
