Dark Panther — Catherine Vale

When the curvy waitress, Leia Jacobs, comes face-to-face with the devilishly handsome stranger in the bookshop, her world is suddenly turned upside down, and everything she thought she knew about herself, turns out to be a lie.

She isn't such a tough girl with the tough exterior, after all. At least not in the presence of Nathan Archer. No, when it comes to Nathan, she is a wobbly-kneed girl, love-struck by the bad-boy Alpha, ready to melt in a puddle at his feet.

And there's another problem. Everything about Nathan spells danger, and if Leia knows what is good for her, she'll run in the opposite direction, as quickly as possible.

But can she turn her back on a man like Nathan? What is it about him, and his sea of secrets, that keep her anchored to him, despite the threat of drowning? If she can accept his truth, and her own, she might just stand a chance at true happiness.
