Lure of the Jaguar — N.J. Walters

With the ancient curse broken, the warriors serving the Lady of Beasts are free. Stavros, the only unmated warrior, retreats to the solitude of the Louisiana bayou, but he's not alone there. The minute he sees the woman stalking wildlife with her camera, he realizes her for who she is -- his mate.

When wildlife photographer Toni Richards is almost kidnapped her, she's shocked when the rare jaguar who saves her then morphs into a man -- a sexy man with a tattoo of a snarling jaguar on his back.

Good judgment flies out the window, and Stavros lets his animal instincts reign. Now that he's found Toni, he can never let her go. He just hopes she'll forgive him for what he must do to protect her soul.
