After escaping from magic wielders, a young doctor must receive help from an enemy hawk shifter to rescue what remains of her family. Season 3 of The Fated Series *** Shifters are dark, cruel beasts. Or so Dr. Sophie Griffin has been told. After escaping from a magic wielder who held her hostage and kidnapped her sister, Sophie has no choice but to seek refuge in enemy shifter territory while searching for leads on her sister's whereabouts. Cael Haberle has a secret. One that's getting harder to keep. When strict orders force Cael to open his home to a beautiful human doctor, he begrudgingly makes space for her. Regardless of the disarming way Sophie settles his shifter side, he must keep her at arm's length-before she uncovers too much. As Sophie learns to navigate around Cael, she finds herself appreciating the quiet hawk shifter's presence. Maybe the shifters aren't horrible beasts like she'd been told. However, Sophie has no time to grow closer to anyone. Now that her captor is dead, she's racing against the clock to save her sister, before it's too late. Except, it seems, fate might have different plans...
