4.0 out of 5 stars Sexy paranormal romantica!, June 22, 2004

This review is from: Moon Lust - Bitten (Paperback)

This is the first book I read from Sherri L. King's Moon Lust series (this being the second installment) and I absolutely loved it. The story can stand on its own because a lot of the things that happened in the first offering fall into place in this one. Bitten is a luscious, romantic story of a struggling artist who meets the love of her life in the most interesting way. Julia works at a five-star hotel in New York to make ends meet and is unhappy with her uneventful life. That is until she meets the unforgivably sexy and mysterious Nikolai. Julia sees that Nikolai is not an ordinary man, especially during the bizarre moments in which he avoids her right after seducing her, not to mention his animalistic tendencies, but she is still shocked when Nikolai tells her that he is an alpha werewolf from the deep forests of Russia. Now it is Julia's job to keep Nikolai from changing into wolf in the heart of New York City...

This novel is more romance than erotica, but it is wonderful all the same. The story is enthralling, the characters are compelling and the sex scenes are pretty hot. Actually, with the exception of the scene in which Julia torments and teases Nikolai while he is tied up to the bed in a wolf-like, uncontrollable state, the scenes are not so very steamy, but the story is so good that I didn't care. I have taken an interest in paranormal fiction, especially if it's erotic and/or romantic, and this is as good as it gets. Sherri L. King is a great romance author. Ellora's Cave has once again satisfied me (so to speak) with this wonderful novel. I shall read other stuff by Ms. King. Highly recommended...

4.0 out of 5 stars Sherri King does it again..., June 25, 2004

This review is from: Moon Lust - Bitten (Paperback)

Sherri L King, one of the undisputed QUEENS of Ellora's Cave Romantica publishing, does it again with this second book of a series. The MoonLust books (4 right now, with a 5th in the works) create a world of cross-genre fiction that pulls you into the characters and their lives. Her writing is cross-your-legs-attack-your-husband-do-not-read without-a-fresh-supply-of-batteries HOT, and even though this book can stand alone... you will want to buy the other three and start emailing Ms. King to finish the fifth NOW!! If you like Erotic Romance (or Romantica as it is being called), Werewolves, Alpha Men, Strong Female Leads, and happy endings... this is a book for your keeper shelf (or Keeper Document file as the case may be). Ms. King also writes "The Horde Wars" series (about a demon fighting race of men and the women who kick butt with them), and some Vampire tales (with some cool twists)! Check out her other series at Ellora's Cave

This review is from: Moon Lust - Bitten (Paperback)

Nikolai is in town for a save the forests convention-not unexpected as he's a werewolf. The plot is pretty basic Werewolf sees girl (Julia who is working the front desk n the hotel he's staying at), werewolf gets girl, werewolf goes walkabout in central park. Girl (on the advice of older werewolf) goes after him; as she's starting her change some muggers get what they deserve.

Several good erotic scenes and some humor as well but light plot; better than average for the genre but not exceptional.
