In The Mane Event, Shelly Laurenston introduced a whole new breed of heroes--sexy, shape-shifting hunks who redefine the term Alpha male. Now, in The Beast In Him, one gorgeous lone wolf is about to meet his match. . .
Some things are so worth waiting for. Like the moment when Jessica Ward "accidentally" bumps into Bobby Ray Smith and shows him just how far she''s come since high school. Back then, Jess''s gangly limbs and bruised heart turned to jelly any time Smitty''s "all the better to ravish you with" body came near her. So, some things haven''t changed. Except now Jess is a success on her own terms. And she can enjoy a romp--or twenty--with a big, bad wolf and walk away. Easy.
Mace Llewellyn. Brendon Shaw. Two tall, gorgeous, sexy alpha heroes who are 100% male--with a little something extra. Lion-shifters, to be exact, who can unleash every woman''s animal side and still look good--make that spectacular--in a suit. . .and even better out of it. . .
NYPD cop Desiree "Dez" MacDermot knows she''s changed a lot since she palled around with her childhood buddy, Mace. But it''s fair to say that Mace has changed even more. It isn''t just those too-sexy gold eyes, or the six-four, built-like-a-Navy Seal body. It''s something in the way he sniffs her neck and purrs, making her entire body tingle. . . Meanwhile, for Tennessean Ronnie Lee Reed, New York City is the place where any girl--even one who runs with a Pack--can redefine herself. First order of business: find a mate, settle down, and stop using men for sex. Even big, gorgeous, lion shifter men like Brendon Shaw. But she needn''t worry, because now that Brendon''s set his sights on her, the predator in him is ready to pounce and never let go. . .
Seeing is deceiving. And Ric Van Holtz, the wolfishly sexy hero of Shelly Laurenston’s sizzling, wildly entertaining new tale, is nothing you expect-and everything you want…
When it comes to following her instincts, former Marine Dee-Ann Smith never holds back. And this deadly member of a shifter protection group will do anything to prove one of her own kind is having hybrids captured for dogfights. Trouble is, her too-cute rich-boy boss Ric Van Holtz insists on helping out. And his crazy-like-a-fox smarts and charming persistence are making it real hard for Dee to keep her heart safe….
He''s big, burly, and way smarter than your average shapeshifting bear. He''s also about to get trapped by own his game. . .
Lou Crushek is a reasonable, mellow, easygoing kind of guy. But once someone starts killing the scumbags he works so hard to bust, that really gets under his fur. Especially when that someone is a curvy she-tiger with a skill set that''s turning Crush''s lone-bear world upside down--and bringing his passion out of hibernation. . .
