Can you turn the clock back on your first love? Would you even want to try? Alex McCann and Teodora "Ted" Vasquez left Cambio Springs together. Ted came back. Alex didn't. Now, years later, the future alpha of the McCann wolves has returned with plans to bring new life to the dying desert community.

Plans that could change everything for the isolated enclave of shapeshifters in the California desert. Some love the plan. Others hate it. As the town's doctor and one of the strongest daughters in the cat clan, Ted has her own concerns about exposing her community to outsiders. The two former lovers are at each other's throats. And everyone is watching to see what happens. But when murder once again strikes Cambio Springs, can they overcome their past to help the community they both call home? And can the love they shared once burn again when so many stand against it? DESERT BOUND is an adult paranormal romance in the Cambio Springs Mysteries series.

Praise for Elizabeth Hunter… “Hunter is an author to watch!” —RT Book Reviews "Elemental Mysteries turned into one of the best paranormal series I've read this year. It's sharp, elegant, clever, evenly paced without dragging its feet and at the same time emotionally intense." —Karina, NOCTURNAL BOOK REVIEWS "Hunter is an absolute pro at giving us steamy, heart melting romance." —Mandy, I READ INDIE

Sometimes, coming home means coming together.

Sometimes, home isn’t just a place.

Alex McCann and Teodora (Ted) Vasquez are the epitome of angry exes.  They can’t even seem to be in the same room without a volatile explosion.  Though we saw glimpses of this couple in Shifting Dreams, the focus is predominantly on this power couple in Desert Bound by Elizabeth Hunter, the second book in the Cambio Springs series.

It’s no secret that Alex and Ted have a past – a past that neither of them are really over.  But as with all things, they don’t realize how much they’ve hurt one another in different ways, and this book is their journey back home – back to one another.

They have challenges beyond their relationship – the first being their own personal responsibilities to their families, their community and their jobs.  But when a murder strikes the small community, Alex and Ted must lead the chase the find the killer, and to protect the secret at the heart of Cambio Springs.

This book carries through on the promises of Shifting Dreams – lovable characters in whom you invest emotionally, interesting interlocked plotlines, and snicker-worthy dialog.

I will be jumping into Book 3, Waking Hearts, tonight, so stay tuned!
