Blurb:
There are all kinds of surprises under the
mistletoe!
As
a protector of all jaguar-kind, Guardian agent Demetria MacFarlane isn’t
surprised to get a call near Christmas—but when she’s sent to protect a cub
whose species she didn’t even know existed, her holiday season gets
complicated. And it doesn’t help that her partner is a distraction of the
hottest kind.

JAG agent Everett Anderson can handle dangerous poachers and wildlife
traffickers, no problem…but kids? Everett fears he’ll be stuck cub-sitting
under the Christmas tree, but working with one sexy Guardian she-cat may be the
best present he’s ever gotten.

Review:
I never thought I would see the day, but Terry
Spear has managed to fully surprise me and brought together her two awesome
series with a bang. While I am a loyal
fan of both her series, Heart of the Wolf and Heart of the Jaguar, I never
thought she would actually bring the two series together, but I seriously
enjoyed seeing the way it worked out.
This story revolves around the sexy as hell Jag-shifter Everett and the
sweet and loving Guardian she-cat that has grabbed his heart and attention. Everett
has been trying unsuccessfully to get Demetria to give him a chance as a male to make her own,
but when they are paired together on a case he gets his chance. Demetria doesn’t really think that Everett is
the male for her, but when he comes after her, full-court-press, she finds it
harder and harder to resist the sweet, sexy, and obviously loving male that he
turns out to be. Then the impossible
happens and a wolf-shifter toddler—which to this point they believed to be pure
fiction—brings these two jaguar-shifters together on a mission to get him back
where he belongs with his family. Everett knows that he needs to convince
Demetria how deep his feelings for her go, and when he has the chance, boy does
he succeed. I enjoyed getting to know
him and seeing how he shows his love for the she-cat, even though I wondered at
times if he would succeed. Demetria is
just a little bit stubborn, which being sometimes mule-headed myself I can
fully appreciate. However, she is the type
of woman that fiercely protects those she loves as well as those around her
that cannot protest themselves, which makes her the perfect woman for a male
like Everett who longs for a family to complete his life. They are extremely
compatible in all ways, including in the bedroom (*blushes*) and when they accept
that fact and give in to their love Demetria and Everett find that a true and
deep love can overcome any differences or obstacles. I enjoyed seeing these two worlds cross and
hope to see more of that in future books in either of the series. I cannot wait to see more sexy cats and alpha
wolves lose themselves to love and mating, and maybe we’ll even see a cross
mating or two livening up these worlds (*hint, hint*). The magic of the worlds Terry Spear has created only becomes more and more amazing and more and more complicated as the series
progress and I cannot begin to imagine where her writing will take us next, but
I can guarantee that I will be along for the ride as she takes us along with
her.
