Erotic Paranormal Romance

New York - Present Day

As with her mother and grandmother before her, Luna Boone is blessed, or cursed depending on how you look at it, with Cassandra Syndrome - the ability to see tragic future events, but not able to change things since others won't believe her prediction until it's too late. So, while waiting for the next tragedy to happen, Luna's first thought when she sees the seven-foot tall man emerge from the hotel, is Wow! Her gift brings the next thought...he's not human. Knowing the time and nature of your own death, if not the date, as Luna does, she's not afraid of much and rushes over to introduce herself.

Pulse, a Shikar warrior and Elder who has come to Earth to better understand humans, is taken aback by the tiny female besieging him with questions. When Luna asks him to help her save the life of a pregnant woman she's seen in one of her visions, Pulse agrees, intrigued. Can it be that he's just found his mate on his first day on Earth?

Sherri L. King's Shikar series lives up to its previous billing with another erotically entertaining tale in RIDE THE LIGHTNING. Luna is a fairly optimistic woman who continues to try to change the future despite her inability to do so in the past. She's ecstatic when Pulse enters her life because it seems that when he's around, she is actually able to make a difference with her gift. Pulse has come to Earth to renew himself in the fight against the Daemons. After seeing the way some humans behaved during the last battle, he's not sure he's willing to continue to fight for them. But Luna's optimism in the face of adversity is uplifting and it's not long after they meet that Pulse's interest in Luna turns to protectiveness and lust. And then comes the lightning!

A humorous and exciting erotic adventure that stands well on its own; come RIDE THE LIGHTNING with Luna and Pulse. You won't be disappointed.
