Romance Paranormal

THE MANE ATTRACTION begins with Mitchell Shaw thinking about death at a wedding. Mitch is a lion shape shifter, who works at a security firm with the groom, a wolf from the Smith pack. His best friend is Sissy, the groom's sister. He is supposed to testify at a murder trial as the only witness and finds out there is a bounty on his head the day of the wedding. After the wedding, when Mitch and Sissy are in a room, a bounty hunter gets a shot at him. He is wounded, and family and friends decide he needs to go to Sissy's home town in Tennessee to recover and hide out till the trial, while they try to find out who the shooter is. Sissy is not happy about going home, but agrees to do it for her best friend. When they get there, Sissy and Mitch decide that maybe being more than friends is the way to go.

THE MANE ATTRACTION had me hooked from the beginning. I love a book that catches you from the start with the story and keeps you laughing out loud with the wit of the characters. Mitch and Sissy are both great characters and Sissy's relatives in Tennessee are wonderful additions to the story.

SUMMARY

Ready for something wild? Shelly Laurenston's sensual, shape-shifting heroes are definitely a breed apart. But even the king of the beasts can find himself unexpectedly tamed by the right woman.

Weddings have the strangest effect on people. How else to explain the fact that Sissy Mae Smith woke up in Mitch Shaw's bed the morning after her brother Bobby Ray tied the knot? Or that gunmen are trying to kill Mitch, and Sissy Mae now has to escort a bleeding, stubborn, yet still incredibly sexy lion shifter to her Tennessee Pack's turf to keep him safe? It doesn't help that Mitch's appraising gaze makes her feel like the most desirable creature on earth, or that the ultimate stray cat is suddenly acting all kinds of possessive.

Mitch is an undercover cop who's about to testify against some dangerous ex-associates. Even more worrisome, he's harboring hot, X-rated fantasies about the fast-talking little canine-and he has to deal with every male in Sissy Mae's Pack sniffing around her in a way that makes his hackles rise. Mitch has his pride, and he intends to show Sissy Mae that when a lion sets out to make you his mate, the only thing to do is purr, roll over, and enjoy one hell of a ride.
