Love Of A Panther by Jennifer Snyder

His bear knows she’s the one. She feels the same, but her tribe’s laws forbid it. Can they convince them love knows no boundaries, or will tradition force them apart?
Ethan Doyle wants his old life back, the one before a terrifying encounter left him cursed with a beastly alter ego. Since then, he has lived a life of isolation in his mountain cabin, constantly wrestling with frustration and solitude. That is until his sister, determined to draw him out, secures him a booth at the local Artisan Market to sell his woodworking creations. Thrust out of his comfort zone, Ethan is terrified of losing control over his beast in public—until he locks eyes with her.
Miranda Cortez has always played it safe, careful not to challenge the strict traditions of her tribe too much. But when her friends surprise her with a booth at the Artisan Market to showcase her lotions and serums, she finds herself uncharacteristically off balance. It’s there she notices a handsome man whose quiet intensity captivates her panther. Despite the undeniable pull she feels toward him, tribal laws say they can’t be together. Yet, her panther feels as though she would risk it all for him.
As Miranda and Ethan’s connection deepens, a shadow from her tribe’s past returns threatening not only Miranda and her tribe but also Ethan. As the danger escalates, can Ethan and Miranda trust that their love and determination will be enough to overcome deep-rooted tribal norms and their own personal fears?
