Asher Keepers of the Lake 4 1st Edition by Emilia Hartley ASIN B08WZ2FRBN

As an undefeated MMA fighter, Asher Knuden attracts women faster than sugary drinks attract wasps. He’s good looking. He’s confident. He’s charming. And he has more money than he knows what to do with. His winning streak (at least with women) ends, though, when he comes across a little fox shifter who stirs his blood like no other. He’s more than ready to change his flirty, uncommitted ways for her—but she’s not even remotely interested. In fact, she acts as if he’s a villain she needs to escape whenever he comes close.

How can he convince her that they’d be good together if they’re never even in the same room?

Zara Torres has had more than enough of overbearing, violent men. Even though she has moved halfway across the country to avoid them, she’s still half terrified of her father and the fat middle-aged fox her parents plan for her to marry. The last thing she needs is a big, bloodthirsty dragon homing in on her like she’s his fated mate. She’s seen his fights on TV, and she doesn’t need any of that kind of destruction in her life.

She’s just a little fox, and she wants to be left alone.

So why does she feel like throwing herself into Asher’s arms every time he comes around?

Asher is the fourth book in Emilia Hartley’s Keepers of the Lake series. Like all Emilia’s books, this one is steamy romance with a strong female lead, a super-hot male shifter, and a satisfying HEA. It can stand alone but is even better when read in connection with the others.
