#1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan explores the
dark past of a woman on the run--and her dark desire for the only man
she dares to trust--in this wild novel in the Leopard series.
With a new identity, a staged death, and a chance to flee the treachery

But in this world teeming with unusual creatures walks the most exotic

As Rachel's past looms as oppressively as the heat of the forest and Rio
unleashes the secret animal instincts that course through his blood,
Rachel fears that her isolated haven has become an inescapable hell...
