The Lion Loves a Lady by Harmony Raines

Charlie has just met his mate. But will Lady Penelope Granger ever fall in love with a lion shifter who has made personal sacrifices for the sake of his best friend and her young child?

He has nothing to offer Penny other than a small cabin in the mountains. And his eternal love.
When Charlie’s best friend from high school arrives on his doorstep pregnant and alone, he takes her in without hesitation. Nearly eight years later, they still share his home and the welfare of her daughter. But things are about to change when Charlie meets his mate.

The only problem is…she’s Mrs. Granger. That’s right, Charlie’s mate is married.
Penny Granger is desperate to avoid a Christmas at home. Not because she doesn’t want to share the holiday season with her parents. No, she’s come to stay at The Catherine Hotel so she can lick her emotional wounds, and try to forget her husband, who married Penny for her money.

She believes she’s done with men—Until she meets Charlie. There’s an instant spark between them. But when she discovers he’s at the hotel to pick up the mother of his child. Penny quickly realizes he’s just like her ex-husband and she is not about to get her heart broken again. Can these two people overcome their misconceptions and find true love? Maybe Santa will sprinkle a little Christmas Magic on Charlie and Penny and make all their dreams come true.
