Jeff saunters over with feline grace and he and he d Ricky shift to their half-animal forms. That way, they retain the greater strength of their animal forms but get to use opposable thumbs. They each grab one end of the beam Brett lifts and strain to lift it onto the roof while Brett once more effortlessly lifts a beam with one hand.

“Jesus,” Ricky says. In his half Jaguar form, the words are muffled and snarling. “Remind me not to piss Brett off.”

Brett huffs laughter at that and hands them the next beam. I hear a voice over my shoulder call, “Hey, cowboy.”

I turn to see Kellie approaching. I shift into human form and say, “First of all, I’m a horse, not a cow. Second of all, stop looking at my coworkers while they’re naked.”

She giggles and says, “Oh, you have nothing to worry about. You’re—”

“Don’t say it,” I interrupt, rolling my eyes.

“Hung like a horse,” she finishes with a grin.

I chuckle. “What am I going to do with you?”

“Whatever you want,” she says.

She kisses me and I shift back and trot over to drag the second load of lumber to the site. She watches me work with a smile and I’m not too proud to say I show off a little.

I’m so glad I met this woman.

Did you likeWild Mustang’s Fierce Determination? I love writing shifter romance and I love getting to write about shifters a little less common than what we’re used to. I guess I’m a horse girl. There’s no doubt about it. Kellie is a horse girl, too. Mustangs… wild horses! They’re strong and powerful and iconic. Maybe that’s why I really fell in love with Stone as I wrote this book. I hope you fell in love with him, too. I love Kellie as well. I enjoy it when a woman is strong but still knows what it means to be a woman. I’m glad these two have a wonderful happily ever after life in their future. Aren’t you?

How about something else that’s wonderful? The Company 417 shifters aren’t going anywhere. In the next book, you’re in for an adventure. What do you get when a bit of a nerdy girl sees a real-life dragon? Although shifters in Company 417’s world are out in the open, there are only rumors of dragon shifters. When a dangerous wildfire requires an emergency fire break, Company 417’s Flynn Aodh springs into action. More accurately, he shifts into action, breathing fire to create a burn break. He thought nobody could see him but he finds himself face to face with Mari Angeline. Mari has immersed herself in fantasy literature forever and staring at the legend is shocking. Of course, since shifters don’t shift with their clothes on, she gets a good look. Can this beginning lead to another happily ever after? Find out inDeadly Dragon’s Intense Infatuation,the next sexy and exciting tale in the always romantic and steamyCompany 417 ShiftersSeries!

EPILOGUE

Kellie

I don’t think we’ll ever finish moving things into the house. At least, as long as every time we get started I end up bent over a box or a couch or whatever the hell it is we carried in, we won’t finish moving things. At the moment, I stare at the hardwood floors as Stone holds tightly to my hips and thrusts into me with absolute abandon. I can’t complain. The feel of his thrusts has me overpowered in the most wonderful way. Hell, if it takes three months, I can live with sleeping on a blanket on the floor in exchange for a moment like this one.

Every thrust drives me wild, and I moan loudly as he moves. I can’t move much at all. I’m bent over a large wooden chest with a rounded top like a pirate’s treasure. It doesn’t give me much leverage because neither my feet nor my hands touch the ground. Also, my pants and panties are gathered together at my calves, another thing making my position pretty unalterable. The chest is Stone’s, in his family for something like five generations. I can’t help but wonder if anyone else got fucked like crazy on top of it.

I almost giggle but the moans preclude any giggling at all.

When my orgasm hits, I scream, and Stone keeps thrusting until his orgasm hits. We shake and moan over each other as the throes of pleasure subside and when we can speak again, I say, “How does it feel to claim the woman you’ve spirited away?”

He chuckles. “I claimed you a long time ago. This was just me enjoying what’s already mine.”

Those words send a shiver through me and before long, we’re at it again.

Later, when we’re dressing together, I say, “Oh. I almost forgot to tell you. Jason turned himself in.”

“He did?” Stone asks.

“Yeah,” I said. “Last week. I guess he decided police justice was better than shifter justice.”

Stone shakes his head. “No one would have touched him. Reggie made it clear that the matter was settled as far as he was concerned.”

“Ah,” I say. “Maybe he just felt bad?”

“Maybe,” Stone says. “In any case, Reggie’s happy in his new house. I’m happy here with you.”

“You won’t miss your friends?”

“Sure I will. But I can still visit. Besides,” he says, wrapping his arms around me. “I have my best friend right here.”

I smile and lift myself onto my tiptoes to kiss him. “I love you too, Stone.”

We finish dressing and continue unpacking and I decide this is the happiest I’ve ever been in my life.
