About this ebook
Editor's Note
Panther Shifter Romance...
Urban fantasy usually features a kickass heroine who won’t back down from anything. In the first book in Arista’s “Urban Panther” series, the heroine doesn’t start out that way, but she evolves into that as she learns what it means to be a panther shifter. The writing is fast and witty, and Arista throws some other curveballs into the urban fantasy template.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Solid entertainment, good enough to not want to put down the book! The age old good vs evil plot but very pleasantly surprised ~ read it!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Funny, unique expressions. Very realistic and likeable main character. Would benefit from another edit and thorough proofreading. Errors make it hard to read in places, and context seems to skip suddenly. Very annoying and almost made me give up on the book. I will start the second book, but if it has the same errors, I will not persist
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was almost a four star for me, but for the severe need for better proof reading. Fortunately, the errors weren't the "limited grasp of written English" kind but the "need fresh eyes to catch typos" kind. A few times I wondered if something was an error or deliberate (e.g. "winced loudly"). With the number of obvious errors, it's hard to assume it's a creative choice.Still, I enjoyed reading this book. The beginning was strong and although events flowed logically, they weren't so obvious that I could see ending chapters ahead. I appreciated the well-rounded characters and their interactions. As the beginning of a series, the author avoids the mistakes of overloading the story with too many characters or unnecessary world building details.Overall, a little more polish and I would definitely recommend this book. I'm looking forward to future books in this series.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5The train left the station right on time and the people were cheering and waving. And then at about a third of it’s yourney it derailed. It went left, it went right, forward and backward, but sadly never got back om track.
