Jakeb is one of the Imperial were-panthers who hide in plain sight.  He is trying to come to grips with his needs— he wants an heir but he refuses to mate with a human.  He wished that female were-panthers still existed.  In any case, he would find a way to get his heir.  Jakeb can’t stand slave traders and when he comes across one abusing a slave, Jakeb buys her.  Kaitlyn can’t believe this sexy and sensual man has not only become her owner but he has offered her a way out—have his heir and he will set her free.  Kaitlyn and Jakeb both feel the instant attraction and need for the other, but she has a secret that has to be kept at all costs.  Even the undeniable passion they feel together can’t stop Kaitlyn’s plans, but a sneaky were-panther just may discover not only the answer to his dreams but the answer to Kaitlyn’s too.

Mating Dance is how Jakeb discovers that sometimes dreams really do come true.  Kaitlyn is a slave dancer with a secret that could guarantee she never finds freedom.  Jakeb has been discovering the need to have an heir but he does not want to be with human females.  Kaitlyn and Jakeb came together with a flash and a passion that seemed almost too quick until I discovered just what Kaitlyn’s secret was.  These Imperial were-panthers are just too sexy for any woman to ignore, like they would want to.  Mating Dance brings another look at the hidden world of the were-panthers who saved humanity—a hot and sexy look at that.
