Diego by Lisa Cullen

For her I’d sacrifice everything, and I just might have to.
My identity, my secrets, even my life.

All I’ve ever wanted is solitude.
My cabin in the woods outside Serpent Valley provides that. I keep to myself for the most part. The humans in town don’t know about my panther blood and I’d like to keep it that way. Nothing good comes from the name of a shifter being passed around on the lips of paranoid town folk.
When a pretty and familiar face arrives in town, however, it’s harder to keep my distance. Emma, a girl from my past, arrives in Serpent Valley looking for a fresh start. If only she knew about the things that lived on the outskirts of this town before she came here. She might never have chosen this place as her home.
I try to stay away for her own safety and mine, but her pull is magnetic. She won’t let me be and suddenly the solitude I’ve always craved isn’t as appealing as it used to be.
For her I’d sacrifice everything, and I just might have to.
My identity, my secrets, even my life.
