COUGAR - Layla Chase

Kol Thorstein, ex special forces Captain  has retreated to the mountains far away from civilization to discover what is going on with him.  He’s been having blackouts losing all sense of time, and then waking up to find himself nude.  Zoia Stavros is a private investigator that has been hired by Halcyon Institute to locate Kol, when she does she gets more than she bargained for in the form of one hell of a sexual experience.  When Zoia witnesses firsthand Kol’s transformation, she teams up with him with his innate need to travel to Davis Mountain to uncover the culprits that did this to him.

After adjusting to the initial shock of the intense couplings I found myself truly enjoying this erotic foray into the future. Very sexy and appealing hero!

JAGUARONDI - Betty Hanawa

Dylan Gomez is coming out of a blackout, knowing once again that he’d experienced another one by his nudity, the tightened muscles, and blue balled hard-on he had.  Having one beautiful babe holding a GLOCK pointed at him didn’t help him to focus his mind on the here and now.   Hayley ‘Hildy’ Lundburg ex Hell Cat from the armies Amazon division was working for Wildlife Control and couldn’t believe what she was seeing as the man she found caged in her van turned back into the Jaguarondi she’d ear tagged some hours before.

This author put some laugh out loud humor into the highly sexual charged situations as Dylan Gomez, a shape shifting Jaguar teams up with his own very hot and sexy wild management controller. With Hildy helping him Dylan finally figures out what is happening to him and tags along with him when he also feels the compulsion to get to Davis Mountain. 

BLACK PANTHER - Myla Jackson

Ramon Osceola was another man from the Special Forces unit, captured, kidnapped, and brought to Hell Hospital where he’d been tortured and experimented upon.   He had retreated to the everglades of Florida away from civilization to try to bring under control the urges to slip from humanity to the animal he’d become. Hannah Richards was a doctor forced to perform the genetic reengineering on human subjects at Hell Hospital – his enemy – the one responsible for his current state.  She herself had escaped Hell Hospital searching for him to beg him for his help to find her daughter Lily. 

This was about as exciting as it gets.  Ramon, a native American Seminole is one truly buff male who was about to unleash all his pent up anger on the woman who had turned his life into a living hell.  Whew, this was hot!

WHITE TIGER - Deliah Devlin

Casey McTaggert, a government analyst had followed the terrorist Khalid Razeh’s career for the last several years.  She’d put a dossier together and somehow had the feeling that he and ‘The Tiger’ were one and the same.  Chasing him along with her military escort she finally had her proof as she witnessed him shape shift into an enormous tiger.   Separated from her escort then captured by Khalid she battled duty over lust for the magnificent nude male specimen whose obvious desire for her set her passions aflame for the man she’d studied and secretly lusted for so long.  They’d come together both in lust and desire then join forces to discover the reason behind the genetic reengineering.

This story is tastefully, skillfully and erotically presented!

Set in a futuristic world all four of these stories were skillfully told with definite leanings towards the shape shifters new highly charged sex drives that were a result of their shape shifting.  Their backgrounds were all similar with a purpose that was geared to bringing all four of these genetically re-engineered special ops ex-soldiers together.   In the beginning I wasn’t quite sure where this was going, but little by little, once I got over my initial shock of the very explicit sexual scenes, I began to enjoy the suspense and intrigue as each subject was programmed to converge at a special place.  The question of who was behind the horror of the experiments that had been done to these men was explained but unfortunately, the why I feel is ‘to be continued’.   I for one will be eagerly awaiting the sequels feeling that this premise of a shape shifting special ops unit will make one heck of a terrific suspense series.
