Billionaire bear shifter Hudson Royce has learned to keep women at arms-length. He's been used before, and protecting his privacy is a top priority. Besides, he's too busy running one of the most powerful corporations in Chicago to waste his time on real relationships.

Little do either of them know that Hudson is really a shifter prince who can't take the throne without a mate.
