Traveling to Earth and blending in with humans is a lot easier than it sounds--especially when you're an alien dragon shifter. The year is 2007, and Luka Monroe and his brothers have just crashed their space pods in a wooded area outside of Boston. They have two primary goals: to find their fated mates and to keep their identities a secret. They're confident both can be accomplished until they realize just how little they know about the human race. Luckily, Luka quickly learns he has a special power that allows him to hypnotize humans into giving him what he wants. They go from rags to riches within days, giving Luka a boost of confidence when he finally meets Harper O'Connor, his mate. For some reason, Harper is the only one he can't hypnotize, and his lack of social skills is a huge turn-off for her. But when she goes out on a disastrous date with a sinister, untrustworthy man who won't leave her alone, Luka steps in and offers to be her bodyguard. The more time they spend together, the closer they get. But the moment Harper starts realizing she can't live without him, something frightening happens to Luka, tearing them apart. Luka can't bear to lose Harper, but what will it take to convince her to accept the beast inside the bodyguard?
