Wild Life by Melanie Bosley
Morgan Clearwater is a new veterinarian at the Millview Zoo. Finally, she has graduated from concession stand duty to doing what she loves—working with animals. Before she’s permanently hired, she must prove she has what it takes to care for animals during a three-month trial run. She’s prepared for it, but her anxiety disorder makes even the simplest of tasks feel monumental.
Josh Ryan has been Morgan’s best friend for the twelve years they’ve worked together at the zoo, harboring a secret crush on her the entire time. He just accepted a promotion in Loss Prevention at the zoo, defying his dad’s wishes to join the family business. Josh has decided to be in control of his own life for once, which includes admitting his feelings to Morgan.
Instead of sharing she feels the same, Morgan panics and retreats into an empty zoo, leaving Josh alone in the parking lot. While she calms herself, a thunderstorm erupts, destroys her only way out, and lets a panther free from her exhibit. If Morgan had confessed to Josh that she loved him back, she wouldn’t be prey for the dangerous animal.
Alone and injured, Morgan must earn the trust of the animals trapped with her or risk losing her only chance at keeping her dream job—and life.
