Eli Scott is a jaguar, a cat with patience, but even he knows when to step it up and fight for what is his. And Sapphire is his. He came to visit and friend and finds a mate. A reluctant mate about to take on a dangerous mission, so of course, he is not about to let her go on her own.

When the two of them embark on a rescue mission, to save a friend of hers from an abusive mate, he plans to find out why she keeps running from their future. Well, that and keep one step ahead of some very angry, very violent shifters.

JAGUAR'S MATE is action packed with danger and mayhem, but it is also a fun read. There is a lot of emotional depth to this book. Sapphire is dealing with some heartbreaks that have turned her off relationships. Her friends are dealing with spousal abuse, and that is a rather insipid way of putting what to her friend's daughter has gone through. Eli has his hands full in keeping Sapphire, and her friends safe, and making her face the truth. There is no curse, just the wrong choices and if she will choose him everything will work out.

The dialogue especially between Eli and Sapphire is at times snarky (mostly on her part), insightful (mostly from him); and at times hilarious. They did have a one night stand, which truthfully was two nights and then Sapphire's feelings had her running, but it has a build-up of their relationship as they continue on their journey. They had time to get to know each other much better and build something that I felt they both needed — a mate who will stand right along side each other, fight to protect and learn to love.

This action-packed, romance rocking, paranormal read will have you up late, not even realizing that time has passed. JAGUAR'S MATE won't let you put it down, and when you hit the end, you want to start over again. I know, because I did just that and loved it the second time just as much.
