  shining paranormal city of Midnight, Mississippi. Bound in magic, only
  paranormal beings can see the portals that bring them inside the
  boundaries. Humans see nothing but a vast field and wood.
   
  First on his agenda is a new job. With the help of fellow transplant,
  Eilam, Colm seeks a job on the King’s Guard. While in an audience with
  the king, he comes face to face with one member of his triad—a shifter
  named Theis. Theis isn’t prepared to accept that he has a mate. He’s
  worked too long and hard to rise to the ranks that he has to let
  something as stupid as lust get in the way.
   
  But he can’t resist the ache his fated partner causes in him. He hopes one
  heated night of passion will make the desire fade. When it doesn’t, he
  only pushes Colm away.
   
  Not long after, Colm meets the last member of their triad—a human.
  Refusing to let the human go, he illegally smuggles the man into the city.
