This was a author requested review, and I was intrigued by the blurb so I decided to read it especially since it was a shorter book at a little over 80 pages. This was a short yet fun shifter romance. I was in the mood for a story like this and I enjoyed the set up. We have our heroine, who works in a little video store but upon closing she is attacked by three men who seek to rob and rape her. But she is then rescued by a panther shifter, Cole. Now Cole, is living a life on the run. His people having been wiped out by the leopard shifters. Currently he is living in the country, keeping his home safe and secret. But when he sees Jessica, his inner animal believes her to be his mate. Cole takes her to his home to heal her and take care of her as she slowly heals. They definitely have some chemistry, but disaster happens when Jessica learns the truth.

Now there were many things I enjoyed about this quick and easy read. It is a novella, so I did have ot keep that in mind, that it wouldn't have the depth that a full novel would have. So it does leave you with more of a happy for now ending instead of a happy ever after ending, which was fine I am hoping to see more of these two in the future maybe. There is some adventure and suspense with a mix of some danger tossed into the story here. The heroine could be a bit naive and Cole tended to leap to certain conclusions and even the it seemed a bit rushed, I had a fun time with these two. I am looking forward to future books with this author.
