To get what he wants, he'll have to rattle her cage...

Lone Pine Pride, Book 1

Lila Fallon, the Lone Pine Pride Alpha's only daughter, has been betrothed since childhood to marry her father's chosen successor. The match is designed to maintain peace by shoring up any cracks in pride solidarity.

She's always known she would do her duty—she just never expected to meet a man who would tempt her to throw it all away.

As a black panther, Santiago Flores couldn't be a less suitable mate for the Alpha's purebred lioness daughter. But that doesn't change the fact that for every one of the five years he's been with the Lone Pine Pride, he's been head-over-heels in love with her. And when the Alpha announces that Lila's indefinite engagement is about to end in a very definite marriage, Santiago is through holding his peace.

From their very first kiss, Santiago rattles Lila's neatly ordered world. But can a lioness who's always lived to please everyone else risk everything to please herself?

Warning: This book contains tempting lone-wolf jaguars, lionesses who long for fairy tale endings, arranged marriages, tangled emotions and a pride full of trouble.
