"Caught between tigers and jaguars, there is nowhere to run"

Fresh Fiction Review

Romance Paranormal | Romance LGBTQ

Sasha Soskoff is a veterinarian and he doesn't make a big deal out of knowing shapeshifters, his ex-Army tiger buddies. He lives in a friendly neighbourhood where the staff of the BDSM club on the corner are invited to the street barbecue. But just occasionally there is trouble, and a young man comes into his office thinking that he's being followed. Who - or what - by is another matter.

TIGER, TIGER is the only possibility that fits when some Spanish-speaking jaguar shifters bring in a body that has been mauled by something with massive paws. Some local homeless men have gone missing, and no other were-tigers are known to Sasha and his friends. Someone killing people could bring down wrath on all the shifters, so they'd better find him. The jaguar clans distrust the tigers and Sasha tries to convince them to co-operate. He gets distracted by experimenting with his complex ménage relationship, then suddenly the rogue tiger attacks and there's no time to react.

This adult paranormal story combines a few different themes - gay ménage, bondage, and shapeshifting suspense. The Siberian tigers are really well characterised and it's easy to see how a luckless victim would be overpowered. This is the second in the Chicagoland Shifters series and there is also a werefox and Russian bears for us to meet.

Sasha's a vegetarian who is given grilled Portobello mushrooms with mole sauce at a barbecue party when the jaguars are hosting. He has empathy with the shifters who value his skills when they get wounded. However there is a lot of violence in this story and a lot of dominant behaviour around Sasha, so I can't help feeling that he doesn't get the best end of the bargain. TIGER, TIGER follows the first instalment, Burning Bright, by A Catherine Noon and Rachel Wilder.

SUMMARY

When you grab a tiger by the tail, sometimes he bites back.

Chicagoland Shifters, Book 2

Veterinary trauma surgeon and animal empath Sasha Soskoff has found everything he ever wanted with his new partners Neal, Steve and Carlos. Life feels as safe and secure as it can be among a group of ex-Marine tiger shifters. Until a homeless man is found, gruesomely mauled and murdered, near Neal’s BDSM club.

When it’s determined a rogue tiger did the deed, the jaguars’ accusing eyes turn toward Sasha’s lovers. The precarious balance of peace tips dangerously toward war.

Neal knows damned well none of his tigers committed the crime. Someone must be in Chicago without his knowledge or permission, and they’d better find him fast before uncertainty and conflict rip the tight-knit band apart from the inside.

As Sasha struggles to heal the stress fractures forming among his tiger family, he begins to wonder if his dreams of a home, and love, were too good to be true. And it’s precisely that moment the killer strikes at the heart of the tiger clan—Sasha himself.

Warning: This continuing story contains more hot man-on-man and men-on-more-men ménage action than you can shake a cat at.
