What would you do if you had some crazy stalker dogging you and the police can’t or simply won’t do anything about it? Would you pack up and move across the country to live in shifter territory? Well, that’s exactly what journalist, Cora decides to do. She gives up her career and leaves the sister she loves for a life on the wild side sans her ex. But can you really call a two date wonder an ex? Neil might have more money than she could shake a stick at, but the dude was totally deranged. Fearing just how deranged he might be, sends Cora packing to a place she figures he won’t follow. Or will he? Always looking over your shoulder isn’t a way to live.

Running speed traps for unwary motorists crossing into shifter territory isn’t the most thrilling part of Ash’s job as a deputy sheriff. That is until Cora comes racing around the corner and into his life. This stalwart and just a bit above the boards bear has met the last in their triad and its pretty obvious to the protective bear that she’s running from trouble. He has no clue what that trouble is but he’s determined he’ll get to the bottom of it, just as soon as he’s off duty. Because you know you can’t mix business and pleasure. Whatever would the town folk think if he stepped outside the lines?

Stepping outside the lines is exactly what his mate Hunter is apt to do. Eternally the prankster and happy go lucky bad boy of the two, Hunter has his serious side when it comes to rescuing injured wildlife. When it comes to his mate, though, this is one seriously wicked boy with a penchant for skating the edges of propriety. Thinking they might never find the third to their triad, Hunter is a bit blown away when he gets a whiff of Cora. Hello, there mama! Propriety be damned. Hunter has no problem asking the pretty lady out on a date with the two of them.

If you haven’t figured it out yet these three are downright combustible together. If I have a complaint… it’s that there simply wasn’t enough. All that hotness and the story has to end. I suppose dealing with the deranged ex and claiming their mate does give a conclusion to the storyline. But darn. Good thing this is the start to a series. Ms. Noir has more triad goodness in store for us all. So if you like hot hunky bear shifters, a bit of suspense, and lovin’ shared equally then this series will probably do it for you. I’ll certainly be picking up the next in the series.
