Rise to Power-Search for Pride, one of the greatest entertainment venues in Las Vegas, is due to open soon. Searching for the perfect performers and lions for her show, Ariela approaches her competition and makes an offer on one beautiful white lion, a lion she believes is one of her mates.

Barlo Matheson’s casino is hailed for its shows and prized lion, a shifter Barlo believes may in fact belong to Ariela. Determined to keep mates apart, Barlo sedates Sanchez, and the coveted animal has a violent reaction.

Faced with the consequences of Sanchez’s actions, Ariela and her other mates rush to save one of their own, but even with their biggest obstacle out of the way, they still face other unexpected problems. Shifters with misunderstood supernatural abilities are closing in, and forming a circle of commitment is the only way Ariela and her mates will defeat those who are determined to destroy them.
