There are already many excellent reviews on this book and I agree with most of them, so I won't bother writing mine. I'll just say that the sex scenes were a bit ouf of my comfort zone but I didn't mind. That's how much I loved Jack and Emma. :)

I just finished reading this, and it is now one of my favorite Feehan books. I am a huge fan of the Alpha male and Jake is that and then some, but I absolutely love Emma. She is more than a match and a mate for Jake.

Yay violence. Yawn story.
Jake Bannaconni & Emma Reynolds meet right after her car accident (caused by his pregnant ex-girlfriends drunk boyfriend; kills them & her husband). She's pregnant; his son survives; he persuads her to go to his home to look after his baby, & after her daughter is born (he adopts her), to take care of them & the house. Two yrs later, she experiences the Han Vol Don mating cycle & is close to shifting for the first time into a leopard (she's 1/2 human, 1/2 leopard). A lot of action is in the book
