Braxton “Brax” O'Hara is a shifter, a PI ... and an art thief. He has no problem with being all three. As a matter of fact, he likes his less than legal job. Kyle Grayson is a member of an all-shifter art crimes team. He does everything within his power to catch the thieves he's after, and believes he's found his next quarry -- Brax O'Hara. Things take a turn for the worse when Russo, Brax's partner in crime, wants him to retrieve some blackmail pictures instead of a piece of art. At the same time, Kyle comes into the picture. When the two men meet, they discover they both know the blackmailer -- and they both hate him, too, for different reasons. Can they stop Russo, a powerful Alpha shifter? More to the point, can they deal with their attraction to each other when they have nothing in common except Russo?

Nothing In Common, Except ...

“Coffee? Tea?” Caleb asked after letting Brax into the house.


“Coffee sounds good.” Brax followed Caleb into the kitchen, leaning against the counter. “I presume everything is working the way it should.”


“It is,” Caleb replied. “As well as, if not better, than what you installed at the business.”


“Good. So what am I going after next?”


Caleb ignored his question until the coffee was made and poured, much to Brax’s frustration. He didn’t get an answer until they had settled in Caleb’s home-office. At that point, Caleb opened his newly installed safe to hand Brax a slim folder.


Brax opened it, and frowned. “What’s going on?”


“This is a different sort of job. Our client isn’t interested in art.”


Arching an eyebrow, Brax read the description of what the person did want, then whistled low at the accompanying photos. “Are you shitting me? We don’t do this kind of work.”
