CHRISTMAS PRIDE
How come all the good-looking ones are insane? That's what
runs through NYPD cop Desiree "Dez" MacDermot's mind the
minute she hooks up again with her childhood buddy, Mace
Llewellyn. It isn't just the way he stares at her with
those too-sexy gold eyes-as if he could devour her on the
spot. Or the six-four, built-like-a-Navy Seal bod-o-death.
It isn't even that he sniffs her neck and purrs, making her
entire body tingle. It's more about that disconcerting,
shifting-from-man-to-lion thing that unhinges her.and makes
her want more. Mace likes making Dez crazy. In fact, he
likes her any way he can get her-in bed, on the desk, here,
now, again. Together, they'd always been trouble, but Dez
has no idea just how good trouble can feel.
SHAW'S TAIL
Brendon Shaw, hotel owner and lion shifter, has seen better
days. He's been beaten, had a gun to the back of his head,
and had to be rescued by a Pack of shape-shifting wolves.
He didn't think he'd survive the night, much less find the
woman of his dreams. And he never thought the woman of his
dreams would have a Tennessee accent and wear cowboy boots.
Once he sets his sights on her, the predator in him is
ready to pounce and never let go. Ronnie Lee Reed is ready
to change her life, and 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-
shifting, oh-my-what-big-um-paws-you-have men. Then again.
