Can Valentine’s Day heal these two cracked hearts?
Dolphin shifter Chico Nobrega loves life, and women even more—until a night-fae rock star gets her hooks into him. He breaks away from her and returns to his river fada clan. On the outside, he’s the same old Chico, but inside he’s just going through the motions...until he meets the sexy new barista at the local coffee shop.
After Jenny's heart was stomped on by her rich, cheating ex-boyfriend, she swore off men. The hard-bodied Latino river fada might be serious eye candy, but the last thing she needs in her life is another cocky, good-looking man. And besides, he's a shifter—and she's a human.
But when Chico coaxes Jenny to take a chance on him, the two discover that a shifter and a human might be a perfect match. Until Chico’s night fae lover returns…

Excerpt:
Jenny set down her napkin and went to stand up. “I have dessert—éclairs from the coffee shop.”
Chico caught her wrist. “Maybe later.”
She sank back into her seat. “I can make some coffee.”
“Sure.” He rubbed his thumb over the sensitive skin between her thumb and index finger. “After.”
Her throat worked. “Oh.”
He came to his feet, drawing her up after him. Their bodies were a breath apart. He felt her heat like a hot lick down his abdomen and thighs.
“Is that a yes?”
Her eyes met his. She nodded mutely.
Thank all the gods.
He slid an arm around her shoulders. With his other hand, he gave her round ass a good squeeze. He’d had fantasies about that ass for a good month now.
She caressed his shoulders, giving his deltoids a squeeze of her own.
“I like the tat.” She traced a finger over the long-beaked dolphin twisting around his bicep. “It’s a dolphin, isn’t it?”
He nodded. “A river dolphin.”
He brushed her braid out of the way and pressed a kiss to her nape. She smelled so good—a mix of lemons and something that was just Jenny. He rubbed his face against her skin, taking on her scent.
Need built in him. Need and an ache that was somehow connected to his heart. His animal awoke and urged him on.
Taste her. Mark her.
Chico sucked on her skin and then gave into the need, closing his teeth lightly on the delicate tendon running down the side of her neck. Just a small mark, so that if another male got too close, he’d see that Jenny was already taken.
She moaned and twined a leg around his hip, rubbing herself against him—her sex against his, separated by only a few thin layers of material. His cock strained at his jeans. Another day, he’d bend her over the table and take her right there in the kitchen, but this was their first time. He wanted to draw things out. To play with her until she ached for him like he did for her.
He licked the small love-bite and husked, “Blow out the candles.”
