As a leader of one of the shape-shifter clans, Luc is dreading the upcoming council meeting when he is informed of an intruder in the stable. Santana has crawled into a stall with a horse thinking she is going to die after being attacked and ending up in the river. Santana turns out to be the lost daughter of another clan leader, which creates all kinds of complications.

Santana’s Heat is a pretty good suspense story that will keep your interest throughout. There are a few loose ends in some places that were not addressed but Ms. DuCane keeps you on your toes throughout.

Santana’s history could happen to any runaway out on the streets, and the possibility of leaders being assassinated is very true to life. The author captures the wariness of trusting anyone very clearly, but also shows that love will sacrifice to the extreme. Luc and Santana have chemistry that is explosive and there is a lot of tension between them and another woman that wants Luc.

Though there are a few hints throughout the story of the twist at the end of the book, I was caught by surprise. The ending did explain a lot of the things happening to Santana and Luc. I recommend this book be added to your library and I for one will be reading this one again.
