First off, I think this premise is a really cool twist on the shifter story--you've got the female lead, Chloe, who is able to communicate telepathically with animals. I don't read a ton of shifter romances, but this wasn't something I'd seen before, and the idea intrigued me. Then you have Jorge, the shape shifting jaguar who comes into her life. Their first meeting is cute--Chloe finds out she can read his thoughts, which completely throws her off because she's never been able to read the thoughts of a human before. One night, when trying to investigate a possible dog fighting ring on her own, Chloe once again comes into contact with the mysterious Jorge, and this eventually leads to the two hooking up.Their relationship progresses very quickly. Jorge was awesome male lead. Chloe, I had mixed feelings about. I found myself frustrated with her, particularly in how she treated Jorge (C'mon sister, he COOKS for you!!!), to the point it left me wondering why he even bothered with her. I didn't like many of the decisions she made and couldn't relate to her reasoning behind them. That being said, when they were together it was sweet, and the chemistry was hot. Their love story is woven in with the plot to save the dogs, which added an extra layer to the story that I appreciated. Overall, this is a nice quick read, and worth a shot if you're an animal lover who also happens to love romance with a shape-shifting hottie :)
