Keep my head down, get good grades, and become a shifting demi-lion while fiercely protecting my pack of gorgeous monster girls from the vicious diurnal faction. What was the first thing again?

Something primal is lurking under the belly of Green Valley University, but there’s no way for Evan to know that. All he’s worried about is trying to study while sitting next to a redheaded beauty. Her skintight jeans and ungodly low-cut crop-top are making it impossible to focus.

But the feeling is mutual. She won't stop watching him, and he’ll soon find out that she needs more than just to be bedded. After class, Ali reveals her animalistic nature, and Evan’s picture-perfect college world is about to come undone.

And it’s not just her. She’s got roommates. There’s the tall, fluffy-eared brunette with glowing amber eyes and impossibly long legs. There’s also the petite, skittish blonde with a perfect bubble behind and an equally perfect tail - and this one might act like she's scared of Evan, but the wagging suggests otherwise.

Evan quit firefighting to get a master’s degree, but now he has to fight the fire inside of him - as the lion inside awakens with a roar. He’d do unspeakable things to protect the girls from the other demi-humans - the ones that hunt for his pack and their sacred artifact.

But the diurnal faction never accounted for Evan.

Something has happened to him. It’s not just his heightened senses. He can feel it in his body. Turning. Changing. Gnawing to get out.

There’s a beast inside of him, and it doesn't care about grades.
