The Year of the Cat Series by Zoe Daniels

The first in a terrifying new trilogy. Holly Callison arrives at Los Gatos High and hears whispers about the legend of a panther. At night, she begins to dream that she is being hunted by the powerful beast. During the day, she falls under the spell of a dangerous boy named Alex, whose wild nature unlocks the savage nature of Holly's true self.

Alex, who lured Holly into the secret cult of the panther, promises to satisfy the dark hunger in her soul. While Jason, steady and caring, has the love and strength to help her tame the beast within. But she cannot resist the power of the ancient rituals now that she is one of the hunters--and Jason is the prey.

As the blood of the panther runs wild in Holly's veins, she is divided by her human love and animal hunger. Her boyfriend Alex demands she stay with him in the cult of the panther, while her friend Jason will do anything to help her escape. Now, on prom night, Holly is forced to choose sides--in the final war between predator and prey.
