Logan, New Mexico – Present day

Jules Kingston has just returned home from college, and it wasn't her idea either. As a WereLion, and the eldest child of the White Sands Pride's Leos, Dane and Marcus, it is her duty to mate and produce more cubs for the pride. So now, her fathers have announced she is ready to mate, but she can't mate with just anybody. As the eldest, she must be with two Leos, either brothers or close relatives, WereLions who are strong, smart, and able to lead the Pride in the years to come. Excuse me, couldn't they at least have ASKED her if she was ready to mate and give up the life she was looking forward to?

When Luke hears about Jules returning from college, he contacts his brother Gabe, who immediately resigns from the SEALS and returns home. Three years before they knew Jules was the one for them, but they gave her time to graduate from college, while Luke ran their ranch and Gabe stayed with the SEALS. Gabe loved his life there, but now they both know Jules is their mate, and they must fulfill their future and make her theirs.

Can two cute guys and some hot sex persuade Jules to change her mind? If they don't, she's not a red-blooded woman! Enjoy her journey from feeling bossed around to acceptance of her place in the Pride and her responsibilities to her clan.

Other characters are Jules mother and her two fathers, the instigators of her nightmare. But Luke and Gabe provide all the titillation that we need for this arousing story.

CLAIMING THEIR MATE has complex characters, a woman wanting the right to make her own decisions, and lots of hot but tasteful sex that you'll enjoy. Go to Samhain and introduce yourself to their great e-books and Paige McKellan's first dynamite novel.
