Cougar shifter Vanessa Vanderbilt is Yuma Town's veterinarian, and though she's attracted to sexy William Rugel, family physician, he's on her least favorite list of doctors in town. After all, why wouldn't he be when he thinks veterinarians aren't smart enough to make it in medical school? Top that off with the issue of her being stood up twice at the altar, and by different grooms, no less!—so taking up with another cougar isn't in the plans.
William Rugel has no idea why Vanessa, who he is extremely attracted to, won't give him the time of day. But everyone in Yuma Town is determined to get the two of them together and he'll do whatever it takes to prove to her he's one of the good guys. Even take in a puppy because he knows she adores animals. So does he, but he hadn't planned to get a dog to get a date!
It's time for another cougar Halloween party—and since Vanessa had met her last two fiancés at Halloween parties, who knows what will come of this one!
