A wounded lion is a dangerous beast... While hiding from vicious militants in a shack she's called "home" the past couple of weeks, Caly Anderson happens upon a wounded lion. Even though the ferocious beast scares the holy hell out of her, the nurse in her wins over, compelling Caly to help the big, suffering cat...just as soon as she's finished freaking the fuck out, that is. Her panic returns when she awakens to find her lion is now a hot hunk of man who's looking at her like she's a scrumptious dessert. Jax Rarh, lion shifter of the Serengeti pride, is hunting clues in Africa for an old friend gone missing. Injured and in hiding, he doesn't expect a beautiful, lush nurse to stumble into his hideout and save him. Her scent drives him crazy, and feasting his eyes on her curvaceous body makes him harder than ever. His every instinct screams at him to claim her as his mate, but Caly, recently divorced, is not only strong-minded, but she also has a fragile heart. Nevertheless, Jax is one determined big cat, and there's no way he's ever letting her go. She just doesn't know it yet.
