WHEN DESIRE CANNOT BE CONTROLLED...WHEN PERSONAL WILL IS OVERPOWERED BY CARNAL CRAVINGS...WHEN ONLY ONE FEARLESS IMPULSE FEES YOU, BODY AND SOUL...

You can't deny it. It's something primal.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Lora Leigh returns to her sensual world of the Breeds...in an all-new Breed novella that explores just how savage, how far, and how deep a man is willing to go in the name of desire.

Set in the same dark, seductive corners as Michelle Rowen's Nightshade universe...an innocent young woman is drawn into the dangerous world of a dhampyr whose love could be the death of her.

Jory Strong's "worldbuilding is nothing short of stunning" (Genre Reviews)...and now, in a novella of the Djinn, comes the story of an angel who crosses the boundaries of desire after committing the ultimate sin—falling in love with a mortal female.

Ava Gray, known for her "riveting romantic suspense" (Publisher Weekly)...now tells a tantalizing tale of an ordinary man—blessed and cursed with extraordinary powers—who gets a second chance at life and love.

My rating:

I struggled with the first three novellas, because they were part of series I didn't know (or one I didn't like the first book), so I was floundering in the dark. They also didn't inspire me to go look for the rest of the series, as it sometimes happens when I read anthologies.

And Primal Kiss, part of one of my favorite series, Breeds, left me rather cold. Maybe it was the shortness, maybe it was the unknown characters...I just didn't "feel" it.
