The story ended up at 71K. That's a little less than Trouble Comes in Threes. The series is called the Fur, Fang, and Felines series. LOL. Tal, Kirk, and Dolf are in this, of course, but it's Heller's story.
Synopsis:
A
cool autumn morning, a yard full of birds, and a kitty on a mission. What more
could a shifter want? Beta Heller Wirth has it all… except a mate: a shifter
mate, that is. He’s been looking, but so far it’s a no-go in the fate
department. And after seeing how happy Dolf is with Tal and Kirk, Heller really
wants to meet that special someone... as long as he's a shifter.
Frankly
Heller can’t think of anything worse than having a human mate. Many in his
clowder agree. While
Kirk may be okay, Heller knows humans are dangerous. They kill without remorse.
They destroy whatever they touch. They just can’t be trusted.
Period. He ought to know—his sister died at the hands of a human lover, and
Heller can’t forgive humanity for that.
So of course the
goddess Bast gives him a human mate. While getting his truck detailed, fate strikes.
Heller catches a whiff of his mate. Oh, he's a happy kitty... until he figures out that scent's from a human. He reacts badly and runs—and by doing so, rejects his
mate.
Lawson
Dupre isn’t exactly sure what just happened in his car detail shop. One minute
there was a guy about to pass out, then he seemed okay and was even flirting,
and then he runs out the door like the hounds of Hell were
after him. Lawson’s best friend and one of the co-owners of the shop, Janelle
Foles, quickly explains who she suspects the stranger is to Lawson.
Welcome
to the wonderful world of shifters lol.
Which
Lawson knows all about—because Janelle’s also not human. Lawson is one of
those rare humans who know paranormals exist. Janelle and her brother,
Marshell, are Vetalas—snake-like paranormals. So finding out his mate is a
werecat isn’t freaking Lawson out. The fact that his mate seems to hate humans
is. If that’s not enough to deal with, there’s a werewolf stalking Lawson.
Watch
the fur fly as Heller and Lawson struggle to overcome deeply misguided beliefs
and hurt feelings. As Heller and Lawson work out their problems, tension builds
around them.

The eyes are the wrong color. They should be a bright blue in this form. :)
