Book Description
“I’M A HUGE FAN OF LORA LEIGH’S BREED BOOKS.” —Nalini Singh, New York Times Bestselling Author of the Psy/Changeling Novels There’s a fine line between animal instinct and human desire—and in the newest book in her “highly erotic saga” (Fresh Fiction) of the Breeds , Lora Leigh crosses it. Lion Breed and enforcer Rule Breaker has a few rules he doesn’t break. But having sex with a woman outside his own breed, even a human woman, is not one of them. Especially when it’s Gypsy, the party girl who’s determined to lead him on a merry chase. But she won’t be able to outrun the lion—or the man in hot pursuit. What he suspects is mating heat may not be that at all. Just his animal instincts rioting, pacing, irritated whenever he’s away from her. What ensues is a fiery affair that breaks all the rules of mating heat and will eventually endanger his mate with the very rules designed to protect the Breeds—for she’s possibly been working against them…
