Synopsis (Goodreads):
Exchanging her stable teaching job for life as a starving artist means Madeleine has no time for fun or sexy men. Too bad the hottest creature in all of Texas has moved in next door, and his favorite activity is ruffling her feathers.

Being at the wrong place at the wrong time landed Dean in government protection, his new home a little rural community named Swan Lake. As the sole fox among them, he's an object of interest, curiosity, and distrust among the swan maidens. But the ivory beauty next door is too much temptation to handle.

Swan Lake is Maddie's home, and Dean is a city boy at heart. The chemistry between them is like shrimp and grits--they don't belong together, but the results are too delicious to matter.
Thoughts on No Fox to Give: I always get so delighted at titles like this. The sly play on words just...it makes me grin, people. I like it. I like it a lot. (and the titles in the rest of the series...YESSSSS.)

But this book isn't all about the title (although it kind of is since...you know what? Never mind. Just go with it.). It's also about shapeshifters (which I love) and sexy dudes with lots of muscles (which, it turns out, I also love) and sassy women who hide their hearts behind sarcasm and scowls (spoiler: I also love when women give as much as they get). Maddie can be sharp and protective of herself, but when she lets someone in, they're hers.

Unless she thinks they're abandoning her, then things turn rough.

As for Dean, he's hot. He's hunky. He likes helping people out. And the people of Swan Lake warm up to him a lot quicker than Maddie does. Not that he lets that stop him. The guy is persistent in a low-key way and I kinda dug it.

Shapeshifters, romance, and nosy neighbors. Good stuff all around.
