Book Description

Series: Aphrodisia | Publication Date: September 1, 2008

They're primed and primal, untamed and unstoppable, always ready to go further, harder, longer to bring a woman pleasure that's wild, fiery, and out of this world...They are the Chanku - an ancient race of shapeshifters, gifted with extraordinary sexual appetites. Now the pack-mates, plus new arrivals AJ, Mik, and Tala, are preparing for Oliver and his beloved Mei Chen to finally bond in a mating ritual that will take each to the peak of ecstasy, and prove as erotic as it is dangerous...To the Walapai Aphache of Arizona, a puma's cry has always been a dangerous omen. Amy Murphy, practical to the core, scorns such legends, until she attends a pow-wow near Flagstaff, where she's immediately drawn to a powerful, dark eyed man. Her attraction is intense, inexplicable, irresstible - leading her into a wildly carnal encounter that awakens the animal within.When Jain Roberts' ship crashes on a distant, futurist planet, she's rescued by Kesuk, the lusty clan leader of the Artic Bears. This magnificent creature with white - blond hair and a potent masculinity haunts her dreams - dreams he intends to make deliciously real, as he draws her into a realm of complete sexual abandon...

CHANKU WILD
Oh how Oliver and Mei just wish they could bond. She is a snow leopard and he is a wolf (cat and dog don't mix). She is still considered Chanku and still yet everyone thinks of her as family. She cannot mindtalk to anyone in leopard form since she is different. She decides to babysit Anton and Stefan's children so the rest of the pack can run. Mik, AJ and Tala decide to go visit after a really bad job made her feel awful from trying to save a mother a baby from a father killing them and failed.

Mik, AJ and Tala get to the ranch and notices that it's empty but they go ahead and walk in. Mik goes in first and immediately tells the others to stop walking-to see a leopard standing in front of him scrounched in attack mode. Mik tries to talk to Mei and to her surprise, she could somewhat understand him.

With that discovered, Anton decides that Mei's Asian culture and Mik's Indian culture has a lot to do with it. He yet once again calls for another meeting. This time the meeting is a little bit more challenging. He wants to swap the conscience of Mei to Eve (since Eve offered to help) while in wolf and leopard form so Mei and Oliver can bond. Anton still is not sure if it will work and there is a risk once the conscience's have been swapped, they may not come back to their original bodies.

Anton and Stefan have to go out of town and Anton has told everyone that they had to be celibate 3 days before the swap. Anton has an idea for Mik to call on one of his ancestors, to see if this might help. Well, Adam and Mik decide to get together and something really amazing happens. They could not believe what had happened so they invite everyone to join in. Something even more amazing happens but takes over the body that you would not think it would take.

What happens to the ancestor spirit? What happens during the swap? Do Mei and Oliver bond or does someone die? You have to read this last book until another is written. I was in tears! Cannot wait for Wolf Tales VII (Wolf Tales (Aphrodisia))

4.0 out of 5 stars three fun paranormal erotic romances, September 3, 2008

"Chanku Wild" by Kate Douglas. Shapeshifters Oliver Chen and Mei are obvious Chanku lifemates. However, although they love each other, they have one humongous problem that threatens to keep them apart. He is wolf and she is snow leopard.

"Night Scream" by Vonna Harper. Near Flagstaff, skeptic Amy Murphy attends a Walapai Apache ceremony. That is until Tohon confronts her to learn the meaning behind the cry of the puma, to deal with life's difficulties past and present lives, and to love sex in any shape or form.

"In Ice" by Crystal Jordan. In the distant future, Jain Roberts' ship crashes on an icy planet where she is rescued by Kesuk, clan leader of the shapeshifting Arctic Bears. He entices her with sexy dreams that he plans to make real.

These three paranormal erotic romances are fun tales to read. Kate Douglas' contribution is well written and continues her series, but newcomers will be lost without at least reading Wolf Tales VI. Sub-genre fans will enjoy these hot romantic fantasies especially the were-bear melting the ice around Jain's heart and the introspective relationship of "Night Scream".

You get Kate's wolves, Apache Puma, and Polar Bears. Got to love the Beasts. Make sure you read Kate's Wolf Tales to keep up with the stories she writes. It is a necessity.
