When Ophelia seeks the services of the Prime Mating Agency to find her soulmate, she's floored to learn that her perfect match is Gaelec, an intimidating, feline-looking ex-convict. Despite her better judgment, she agrees to the union only to discover that a sweet and cuddly male, with the fluffiest fur, hides behind the stern but sexy mountain of muscle that is her new husband.

She was his anchor in the tempest.

After serving twelve years in the worst prison in the galaxy, Gaelec just wants to go home to a quiet life. But the evil forces that led to his incarceration are once more set on ruining his life. Having a brand-new mate thrust on him-and a human at that-is the last thing Gaelec needs. And yet, he soon finds himself unable to resist the sweet but strong woman, with her adorable freckles and adventurous spirit who makes him want to purr again.

With so many forces conspiring to bend him to their will, can Gaelec finally find the peace and happiness he seeks with his Ophelia, or will they bring him down a dark path again?
