Slow Heat - Paperback

A passionate college student meets his match in an older man with a past.

Professor Vale Aman has crafted a good life for himself. Unbonded in his mid-thirties, he's long since given up hope that he'll meet a compatible man, let alone his destined mate. He's fulfilled by his career, his poetry, his cat, and his friends.

When Jason Sabel imprints on Vale in a shocking and public way, longings are ignited that can't be ignored. Fighting their strong urges, Jason and Vale must agree to contract with each other before they can consummate their attraction.

But for Vale, being with Jason means giving up his independence and placing his future in the hands of an untested young man-as well as facing the scars of his own tumultuous past. He isn't sure it's worth it. But Jason isn't giving up his destined mate without a fight.
