Jeremy has always used his expressionless hybrid form to mask his emotions – beaks just don’t give that much away — but he’s finding that this time, it (and his top-secret job) might be costing him too much.
He fell for Kate the first time he saw her, but regardless of his efforts to stay present in her life, she isn’t giving him any openings. After her latest boyfriend — who was even worse news than Kate knows — Jeremy decides to make his own opening and keep her safe.
She needs a website? He’ll build her one. She needs a ride around town? He’s ready and willing. She needs him to hack into a prison and make sure her brother is safe? He planted a backdoor into their system months ago. Wait, she never asked him for that one... Oh well, he’s got that one covered, too.
All Kate wants is to successfully launch her business making jewelry for hybrids and humans alike and build a relationship that isn’t a total trainwreck with a true partner.
After discovering that her latest boyfriend is lying to her about everything from his name to why he wants to help her at craft fairs, Kate’s determined to salvage her fledgling business and only date someone who’s not shady at all. And Jeremy, unfortunately, has shady written all over him, just like the other members of the Mavens Motorcycle Club.
But the more he’s around, the less things are adding up. Like, how does he know that her ex was using her for access to her brother? And why would that make her unsafe now that he’s gone? And what self-respecting motorcycle club member wears polos and looks as cute and nerdy as Jeremy does?
Maybe she’ll give him a chance… but only if he comes clean first.
Captured Crystals is the third book in The Mavens. Either read the first two before this one, or grab the deleted three-chapter prologue (link in book) that recaps the relevant book 1 and 2 interactions between Kate and Jeremy from their points of view.
