BLURB: Eric Warden knows that half-Shifter wildcat Iona is passing for human, living without a Collar in the human world. He also knows that if she does not acknowledge her Shifter nature and her mating hunger, it could kill her. Iona finds the mysterious and dangerous Eric, a wildcat and leader of his Shiftertown, haunting her dreams, but she vows never to "come out" and take the Collar, fearing backlash against her mother and sister for hiding the fact that she's Shifter. But Eric is a compelling Shifter male, and Iona's hunger calls to him

Wendy’s Review:  Like a dog with a bone, that’s how I would describe Eric going after Iona. He knows he wants her more than anything else in his life and he now has to convince her that being with him will not hurt or ruin her life or even her family’s lives. The magical pull of want and need is strong but not strong enough to pull Iona all the way into Eric’s waiting arms.  She puts up a good, but short, fight but once she lets go of those feelings of being afraid, she is on board 100%.  Eric helps her bring out her shifter instincts that she has fought her entire life to hide. The raw passion they feel for each other comes to the surface and life gets better for her, not easier but better. When the government makes two shifter towns combine, all the shifters knew there was going to be trouble but they expected it from the incoming wolf shifter leader, not humans who are set on hurting all shifters.  Eric makes certain he remains leader of his Las Vegas shiftertown, and that he give his help to the other shifter leader that has moved in with them. All challenges are set aside once danger pops up that effects all the shifters in Las Vegas. Family, that is what it is all about in shiftertown. You don’t have to be the same kinds of shifters but you do have to stick together to save them all.

Book 5- Tiger Magic is something I am really looking forward to. Absolutely love this series and this author.

My Rating: 5
