Chanku Fallen - Kate Douglas

USA - Present Day

Lovers and packmates, A.J. Temple and Miguel "Mik" Fuentes are searching for fellow packmate, Baylor's sister, Mary Ellen Quinn. They stop off to grab a bite to eat and nearly come to blows with a bloke who is manhandling a young woman. When Mik steps in to assist, the young woman, Tala, tells him it's okay and it's probably her fault. Of course, neither man knew that Tala would be ganged raped by the group or that she would steal away in their vehicle. Both men decide to take Tala with them as far as they can, but along the way they make a startling discovery. Tala is quite possibly a Chanku - a race of unique shifters - just like them. The three have wild sex together and both Mik and A.J. come to a startling but pleasant conclusion. Tala is their female mate. But how do they explain this to a frightened yet strong-willed young lady. And will she understand and accept it?

Kate Douglas gives readers another enticing and titillating spicy tale with Chanku Fallen. Readers of Ms. Douglas's Chanku series will remember Mik and A.J. from previous stories and boy, are they still the tastiest morsels around. Their bond and love for each other is strong, but throw in a female with the power to bring them to their knees and you've got one helluva good story.

Fantasie - Noelle Mack

France - Present Day

Tanya travels from New York to France to style the mane of a big ole' lion. She is the best hairdresser around and she has her own shop in New York, but a lion's mane? Hey, the pay is good and a girl's gotta eat. Then Tanya meets Jean-Claude, her benefactor and owner of the gorgeous home she's staying in, and finds herself very attracted to the man. For an entire week Tanya is in a world of seduction and fantasies, but all good things must come to an end...or must they? Jean-Claude makes it quite adamant that he doesn't want Tanya to go. Will she go or will she stay and play in his world of eroticism?

There are several twists and turns in Noelle Mack's Fantasie. To share them would give away something that I wish to leave for the reader to unveil. Sexual escapades that are hot and spicy, and two intriguing characters with much to learn from each other, are what's in store for readers when they open up this tale.

Call of the Wild - Kathleen Dante

Woodrose, West Virginia - Present Day

Deanna Lycan is on her way to Hillsboro in the hopes of turning up some kind of information on her birth parents, when she's hit by a drunk driver and knocked down an embankment. Not one to sit around and twiddle her thumbs, Deanna is working towards releasing herself from the wreckage, when a gorgeous hunk suddenly appears and pulls her from the car. Thank goodness he arrived when he did, or else she would be at the bottom of the ravine with all her belongings.

Deputy sheriff Graeme Luger, arrives on the scene of an accident caused by one of the rebel-rousing kids that he's not allowed to throw the book at. The moment Graeme lowers himself down to the woman's car, he's instantly assailed by a scent that makes his equipment stand up and wave howdy. What is about this woman that fires his libido and brings out the beast in him? Is it possible she's the One? There's one way to find out...lots and lots of naughty, sweaty sex. Mmm....delicious.

Kathleen Dante's Call of the Wild has my three favorite things: sexy alpha, torrid sex, and a hint of danger. If you've got those three things, then in my opinion (notice I said my opinion) you've got a scintillating story.

Scrumptiousness is what SEXY BEAST II is all about. The heroes are too delightful for words, the heroines a perfect fit for our heroes, and the sex is down and dirty, with sprinkles of tender and emotional mixed right in. I'm a big fan of Ms. Douglas's Chanku series and eagerly await each story, and so far she's never let me down. Ms. Mack is rather new to me but she captures my attention and holds it. And last but certainly not least, Ms. Dante moves me with the way her characters come to life. All three ladies are equally talented and this is one anthology you don't want to miss.
