"Keller is a black panther. She will do whatever it takes to survive. Keller meets her match when she’s hired to protect Iliana Harman, a blond ditz whose only concerns are clothes, boys, and parties. Can Iliana be the legendary Witch Child, one who can fend off the end of the world? Galen, the gorgeous boy destined to be the Witch Child’s soulmate, and Keller are falling in love, but it’s a love that will destroy everything. Keller knows she has to give him up — but her heart won’t listen.

Meanwhile, the Night World is closing in, to kill all three of them." (From Amazon)

A great paranormal romance series. For fans of Twilight and Christopher Pike.

I spoke too soon. My review of the last Night World book I asked why L.J. Smith doesn't seem to write about the shapeshifters in her universe only for this book to from the perspective of a shapeshifter. I wish that this book would have come sooner, or a shifter book would have come sooner because I found their history super interesting. It's a pity that Smith never published the 10th book in this series because I'd love to know what happens and who the fourth Wild Power is but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ye can't always get what you want. That being said, I love that there was a fuckin' dragon in this. Interesting that dragon's can shift into whatever type of form that they want and have all those fancy powers. I would have loved a whole book entirely on the dragon shifters.

An installation in a fun, late '90s paranormal series for teens. Loved how powerful and unapologetic the panther shapeshifter main character, Keller, was!
