Eat Prey Love (Avon)Ok, so Carlos is this super hot Brazilian were-panther, who everyone assumes is gay and he's got a serious problem. Carlos and a few were-panther children seem to be the last of their kind so he needs to find a mate in order so the species will survive. Working for McKay Investigations gives him the opportunity to search around the world for others just like him. Caitlyn Whelan has been fired from her job, finds her long lost sister, then finds herself working for a vampire and falling for a certain Brazilian were-panther. Carlos is more than a little attracted to Caitlyn but he knows that this attraction can go nowhere because Caitlyn is mortal and can't have little were-panther babies. Their boss sticks them together on a mission that is destined to either make them or break them. But it's just a matter of who breaks first.
Along the way, they fight less than truthful guides, get married by a village elder, and awaken an ancient vampire from decades of slumber.
     This is a nice addition to the series but I can say that I was a little disappointed in what seemed like a promising story for Carlos; there just wasn't enough there for me. Carlos is on a serious mission to save his people and wants to make sure he does the right thing. I think my biggest issue was with Caitlyn and her development as a character. She, at first, seemed to be a quite serious and then she turns into quite a hussy chasing after Carlos all the time. I don't know...It seemed rushed and a bit frivolous but a fun tale, nonetheless. This is a book that I could have waited for a library copy but sometimes you just never know.
