Leah was having a time adjusting to her new life after her mother remarried. Her step brother hated her, she had trouble making new friends and she would rather just find a quiet corner to read in than attend a high school party like the rest of her class. That all seems to change when she comes in contact with her brother's best friend, Jaxon. The chemistry between them implodes at astronomical proportions and unexplainable things begin to happen. And if that wasn't enough to complicate matters, for the first time in her life, someone finds out about her secret. A secret she had been harboring for as long as she could remember; the secret of her inner panther. She also learns that in this new town she lives in, she's not alone like she once thought. She just happens to live in a town filled with other feline shifters. Now the real story begins.

For eleven years, Leo Risso, a slave to the night, patiently watched over his charge without once letting himself be known. Sticking to the deepest of shadows, cloaking himself in the shroud of darkness he carefully bided his time. The monumental day that he had been so patiently waiting for has finally arrived—the day that Shelby Tanner comes of age and he can finally claim her once and for all as his treasured bride. Night after night, Shelby gets lost in vivid dreams involving a mysterious dark knight that had unexpectedly saved her. She had only been ten years old at the time when he swept in like a guardian angel and brought her back from an accident that should have ended her young life. As the years progress, the dreams come more often than not, leaving her feeling more edgy and restless each time. Imagine her shocked surprise when the very same knight that plagues her dreams on a nightly basis suddenly shows up in her apartment with every intention of claiming her as his own. This is a story of steamy seduction, of ultimate betrayal, of bewitching prophecy and timely rebellion that will certainly keep an avid reader, young or old, blood lusting for every last word.
