You will be cheering for Nadia to get away from the evil that she has found herself in and wondering what Mikhail has in store for her brothers. Ms Jordan has created a group of characters that has the reader caring about what happens next.

"Ms. Jordan has written a fantastic tale of a changeling group of cat-humans destined to live out their lives dealing with an age-old curse. Much more creative than many werewolves tales with a wonderful twist. Fabulous black leopards, a tale that explains how their kind was conceived and continues to exist. Her storytelling kept me riveted and the erotic scenes kept me expectant and warmly motivated thanks to the depth and level of the characters emotional charge and sexuality. One HOT read." - 5 Hearts, Orange Blossom, The Romance Studio
"Eyes of the Leopard 2: Vengeance is the second book of Isabella Jordan's Eyes of the Leopard series. It is not necessary to read the first book to understand the second. I was very much engrossed by this short book. Nadia's character seemed timid and weak at first but as the story went on you realized she was actually the strongest character in the book. She endured the lusts and humiliation of a man she couldn't stand to save the men she loved. When Mikhail returns the sparks don't fly they jettison!!! This story makes you believe that if two people are meant to be together there is not stopping fate. When Mikhail has his change of heart you just want to jump for joy. The sex between Nadia and Mikhail is white hot! This book has absolutely sparked my interest and I am off to buy the first book of this series and breathlessly await the third. Eyes of the Leopard 2: Vengeance is a great addition to my collection and will be to yours also." - 4 Stars, Faith Jacobs, JERR
"Eyes of the Leopard 2: Vengeance is a thrill ride from start to finish. This novel fairly seethes with anger and revenge, thus the title is aptly named. Nevertheless, Isabella Jordan does a phenomenal job of setting the scene for forgiveness and the rebirth of love. This is the second book in the Eyes of the Leopard series and it revisits characters from the first story, Discovery. It is helpful to have read the first story, but not totally necessary as any reader will quickly become immersed in the powerful shape-shifting world that Ms. Jordan has created. Sexual tension, danger, and the promise of revenge all combine together to create a great story." - 4 Angels, Sarah W, Fallen Angel Reviews
"VENGEANCE is literally a bloodthirsty story showcasing Nadia Kerensky and Mikhail Turgenev who separated due to lies and misconceptions. Still, they come back together in an explosion of passion fueled by his anger at her part in his capture and the time he spent in a New York Zoo. Nadia’s twin brother, Ilia, is a sympathetic secondary character who gives insights into Nadia, as does her older brother Vitali. VENGEANCE is the second part in the Eyes of the Leopard serial and it looks as though the next story will feature Ilia." - D.S. Shadows, RRT
"Part of Jordan's Eyes of the Leopard series, this latest novella jumps right into the action, where demon blood shared among a few individuals needing to breed causes pain and tragedy. There is honor, but will it present itselfin time to save souls and to right wrongs?" - Leigh Rowling, RT BOOKClub
"This contains some very steamy sex – foursomes, lesbianism, a touch of BDSM – so it's not for the faint-hearted! Nadia and Mikhail are delicious characters with a fiery, tempestuous relationship that will sweep you along in this exciting tale. There's more to come in this series, so be sure to look out for the next book!" - 4 Wands, Autiotalo, Enchanted Ramblings
"Eyes of the Leopard 2: Vengeance by Isabella Jordan is full of passion and tension and is absolutely satisfying in every way. Misha is brooding and misunderstood in his pain as is Nadia. The secondary characters bring everything into light as the cruel villain is exposed. This is a beautifully told tale of love and karma reasserting balance. Ms. Jordan has created another masterpiece for the discerning reader's collection. The love scenes alone are powerful enough to bring tears to my eyes; all the other emotion just brings it to living, breathing reality. Ms. Jordan makes me feel as though I am living it right along with the characters. Congratulations on packing so much into so few pages."
"Warning: This book contains a same sex love scene. If this type of thing offends or upsets you, please do us all a huge favor and exercise your right not to read this book." - 5 Stars, Keeley Skillman, eCataromance
Excerpt:
Nadia’s breath came fast as his fingers slid down her belly to the dark thatch of curls at the top of her thighs.
“We will talk when I say it is time to talk,” Mikhail said as his fingers slid into the curls, into her folds. Her little pussy was so hot and his finger slid so easily into her passage on her wet heat. Slowly he moved his finger in and out of her tight little body, glancing up to see her mouth gaped open, her eyes glazed with need now.
When he slid a second finger in, her hips lifted to meet his hand.
“Right now,” he explained as his fingers slid in and out her, “I want to fuck. I haven’t had pussy in a very long time, Nadia.”
Mikhail pulled his fingers from her and put them in his mouth for a taste of her. He’d missed her taste. He wanted more.
“Spread your legs wide, Nadia,” Mikhail commanded as he moved down the bed towards her feet. When she hesitated he grabbed her thighs roughly and pressed them apart. Her eyes were wide as he stretched out at the end of the bed and grabbed her ass in his hands.
“Hold yourself open for me, Nadia.” Mikhail leaned forward, breathed in her scent and growled. “Hold your pussy lips open.”
Nadia’s hand shook as it slid down her body to do just as he’d asked. With her index and middle fingers she spread her pussy lips open for him and he smiled.
“Would like for me to eat your pussy like that woman did last night, Nadia?” Mikhail asked. “Is that what you want?”
“Yes,” she whispered.
Mikhail started to move forward but then stopped, peered up her from between her thighs.
“Beg me.”
“Please,” Nadia’s voice shook.
“Please what?” Mikhail pressed her.
“Please eat my pussy.”
“Very good,” Mikhail bid her as he leaned forward, burying his mouth in her pussy.
Nadia had always loved his tongue and he gave it to her, running it up to lap at her hard little clit and back down to fuck her while she writhed and squirmed. Mikhail had thought about her pussy often while he was trapped in his cage for two years. He’d had no hands to jerk off with. Now it was all his again and he tongued it, savored it, didn’t stop until Nadia’s hands were in his hair and she was shoving herself at his face, coming.
It hadn’t taken a lot to bring her off and his cock was throbbing. Mikhail pulled himself up and worked frantically to unfasten his slacks, pulling them down with the silk boxers to show her his cock, rock hard and ready.
Nadia reached for him but as he came up over her he collared her wrists in his hands and pressed them to the bed on either side of her. Mikhail would have told her had she asked that he didn’t want her to touch him. The truth was he was afraid he’d come undone if she did.
Parting her thighs with his own, Mikhail teased the seam of her pussy lips with his cock. He didn’t miss Nadia’s sharp intake of breath.
“Now, little Nadia, I’m going to fuck you until I get my fill.”
And with a strong thrust he pushed inside her, his entry easy within her slick flesh. Nadia’s thighs trembled around his hips at first. But once he was inside her pushing and pulling his cock out of her tight little channel, her thighs closed tightly around his hips
