This was a quick short story and whilst I haven't read any of the other books in this series, it could easily be read as a stand alone novella. Zola is a French Lion shapeshifter living alone in New Orleans after her mother kicked Zola out of the pride due to her madness caused by being a Seer. After spending a few years travelling and learning different martial arts, Zola has opened a dojo teaching her skills to other shifters and humans alike.One day Walker Gravois, her ex-boyfriend, turns up on her doorstep, 10 years after she left asking for her help. Everything has gone to pot basically and Zola needs to help out the last remaining members of her old pride. Will she do it even after the way her mother treated her? Or after Walker just let her walk out of his life?A fun light read and I think I may try to find the rest of this series for the Kindle. Just a short novella set in the world of the Southern Arcana series, made all that more intense by being less than 50 pages!Zola is no longer the teenage girl who fell in love with Walker but a grown woman of thirty when he shows up at her Dojo in New Orleans. Her mother has died and her Pride of Lion shifters has been almost eradicated. Walker has come to seek Zola's help by asking her to allow the remaining shifters to relocate to NO and for Zola to become their leader.Simple, straightforward but with overtones of the past that the two share this is a quick down and dirty romp with two characters whose personal magnetism leap off the pages. A brilliantly short but hot action filled novella that will appeal on all levels to both fans of this series as well as other works penned by the writing duo.
Do You like book Zola's Pride (2011)?
Kinda-sorta interesting. Didn't quite hit the mark but worth a read if you have an hour to kill.
