Healed (Legacy, #5)

While many of the Legacy Clan of shifters have found their happily-ever-after, there are a few who struggle to see beyond their own traumas long enough to even consider another, much less themselves.

There’s Daisy, who once brought light to everyone who knew her, but now does all she can to remain unnoticed. A man who should have guided her and nurtured her developing mind and talent as a naive young woman, manipulated her into a situation that has just about stolen every bit of pride she ever had. Her humiliation was so great that she ran home to lick her wounds, and hasn’t had the courage to move beyond that. She’s built thick walls to keep everyone out. But unbeknownst to her, a new man has taken notice. He wants nothing more than for her to see him, as he sees her. He’s offering everything she’s ever dreamed of. But she’ll drive him away, as she does everyone else. Or will she?

Then there’s Remi, always steady, dependable, and kind, until a broken heart sends him spiraling into self-doubt he’s kept buried since he was a boy. All his life he’s kept the fears of his lack of self-worth shoved down deep inside. But losing the girl he loves, and his destined mate both within the same week has those doubts raging to the forefront. His life is burning down around him, and he’s so lost within his own self-pity that he can’t find the strength to care. Hopefully, someone — anyone — will find a way to make him see all that he truly is, and realize that he’s only hurting himself. But who? A mate, maybe?

And Angelle, who has lived her entire life quietly on the perimeter of everyone else’s lives — intentionally. She prefers being alone — camping, fishing, sketching, nature. People make her nervous. And too many people mean a lot of activity. When submerged in that atmosphere, she becomes an overstimulated mess. She once dreamed of children of her own, but she’d need a mate for that to happen. Convinced that no male is going to understand her needs, she’s resigned herself to being alone for the rest of her life. And that’s okay with her, at least her life will be peaceful. The Fates just didn’t create her with a mate in mind. Or did they?

For these few individuals, the pain of loneliness seems a likely future. But fate has other plans for them. All they need is a little bit of healing, each in their own unique way. And while that healing is taking place, life goes on around them, bringing the Legacy Clan together as a whole, for what may be the last time.
