About this ebook

A Former SEAL Panther Shifter - a Tough, curvy BBW in Search of Answers

In Out of the Darkness (Taken By the Panther BBW Paranormal Shifter Romance #1) Curvy Tara Morland has always known there was something different about her, but she never knew why. Then one day, the panther took over her mind and transformed her body, and her world was forever broken.

Former SEAL and panther shifter Chay “Beane” Bane has made a career of rescuing other shifters in difficult situations, secreting them in his vast compound far from the prying eyes of the government. But when rescues her from a military facility, he isn’t prepared for what he finds.  Tara is a twenty-four-year-old, older than any natural-born panther shifter should be. 

But to find answers, Tara will have to learn to control the beast within herself.  And Chay must grapple with discovering what he thought he’d never have.

The Taken By the Panther BBW Paranormal Shifter Romance series features shapeshifters in the new and complete Aethereal Bonds fantasy world that often appeals to fans of Nalini Singh and Patricia Briggs.

Ratings and reviews

At the start of this new serial we get more action with the mysterious and sexy Chay Beane and his new "stray" Tara. I'm already gnashing my teeth for the next installment. I'm hooked, this story has me purring, great characters that are well written. It's entertaining, it's humorous, it has hot hot action (how can one resist!!!) Can't wait to see what happens next.

Panther shifter Chay Bane has to rescue Tara from a military facility when she unexpectedly shifts into a panther and he isn’t prepared for what he finds, but to find answers, Tara will have to learn control in this riveting paranormal romance. This fast paced and smooth flowing plot captivates readers with suspense and excitement. The well written scenes and details capture the imagination and the fascinating world draws readers deeper into the story as the strong compelling characters grab the reader’s attention. Chay finds himself very attracted to Tara, but he knows that she probably won’t be able to control the panther and Tara is attracted to Chay but her world’s been turned upside down. The reader can’t help but get drawn into their budding but possibly doomed romance. I was completely caught up in this quick read from the beginning and I can’t wait to read the next story in the Taken by the Panther serial. Note: This is a serial so the story is in no way finished, also it may be helpful if you have read other books in the Athereal Bonds series, but it isn’t necessary to enjoy the story…so far.

The ending left me hanging
