Tigra by R.J. Leahy

Jeena Garza, an elite soldier in an ages-old galactic civil war, escapes the horror of a POW camp only to crash-land on Ararat, a desert planet far from home. It is a desolate world, long lost to the rest of humanity and home to only a few scattered primitive cultures. For Jenna, the isolation is a blessing. After years of fighting and months as a prisoner, she wants only to be left alone; to forget and to be forgotten.

But fate has other plans. After killing its mother in self-defense, she reluctantly adopts a tigra cub, a tiger-like carnivore native to the planet. Jeena’s adoption of Samson sets in motion a series of events that will shake the very foundations of life on Ararat. For his sake, she will lead a people into battle, decimate an army of half a million, and fulfill a prophesy five thousand years in the making.
