Familiar Heart

the long version

***The man had a way with cats - and with women*** **Animal trainer Brak Brunston was reputed to have a mystical link with his animals** - a connection so strong that even Ashley Curry felt its power the very first time she laid eyes on the man. When Brak's prize panthers were stolen, Ashley couldn't resist offering her expertise as a law officer. **As they raced to recover the cats, she found she also couldn't resist Brak's strong savage appeal,** the strength of his embrace, or the magic of his touch - not even when the discovery of his secret past set up a war between duty and her heart: **Brak was a man Ashley wanted to help...to love - and to turn in to the law. *--fictionDB***
