Part of Leopard People, book 3
First published 2010
Connor Vega prowls through life carrying both his leopard's wild scent and the weight of betrayals that destroyed everything he once held dear. His animal nature marks him as a predator in his prime, but past sins have left him isolated and guilt-ridden. Isabeau Chandler has spent years nursing her anger toward the man who shattered her trust. She has neither pardoned his actions nor erased him from her memory. When their paths cross again, the mating instinct that once bound them flares back to life with renewed intensity. The attraction between them burns stronger than before, creating a dangerous situation neither can fully control. Connor must confront the consequences of his past choices while Isabeau struggles with desires that threaten to override her hard-won defenses. Their leopard shifter biology demands a union that their human hearts resist.
