Book Description

January 9, 2007

In this steamy anthology, three strong, sexy women use their feminine wiles and powerful seduction to claim the men who can satisfy their every desire. . . .

KIMBERLY DEAN

Fever

Miserable at work with a raging fever, Delia Jenkins is sent home by her handsome, masterful boss. She tries to sleep it off, but hours later she is gently awakened by the arousing caress of her powerful knight in shining armor. Delia is still burning up -- with desire for his passionate, stimulating touch to make her feel better...in more ways than one.

SUMMER DEVON

Perfection

After volunteering for a lab experiment gone awry, Bryan Hartigan is irresistible to women. Thanks to a "come and take me" chemical that emanates from his pores, every woman wants his body -- and a group of thugs want the million-dollar essence it exudes. While on the run from relentless stalkers, Bryan meets Allie, a sweet, sensual waitress whose luscious curves he can't resist -- and who may be the antidote to his alluring curse.

MICHELLE M. PILLOW

Taming Him

Driving alone one night, Maggie Stewart sees an alien spaceship and can't believe her eyes. When a gorgeous, hard-bodied stud named Vladei emerges and kidnaps Maggie, intoxicating her with his euphoric aura and chiseled features, she is utterly confused and tempted at the same time. Once she's aboard the ship, Vladei treats her like a queen, showering her with enticing pleasures and unrequited passion -- until she will do anything to be his.

5.0 out of 5 stars This anthology is sure to give readers libidos a jump start., March 3, 2007
This review is from: Taming Him: Ellora's Cave Presents (Paperback)
FEVER by Kimberly Dean

Delia Jenkins has only been working for Lloyd Security Systems for two months. Catching a bug that gives her a skyrocketing fever is a huge inconvenience. She tries to work but Rob convinces her that she'd recuperate better if she went home and took care of herself. On the way out of the office she practically stumbles into her boss, Jackson Lloyd. He is none too pleased to see her in Rob's care.

Rob promises to stop by Delia's apartment to check on her later so she's not surprised when she's awakened by the arousing voice and caress of a man whom she's sure will be able to help douse the incredible heat that has her practically delirious. Will she come to regret anything she experiences during this night of incredible heat?

Kimberly Dean does an incredible job creating a scenario where having a raging fever is unbelievably sexy. While being so ill and having a brain cell frying fever is no laughing matter, Delia's lack of inhibitions which is caused by the fever is downright funny. There's no shortage of suggestive ways to cool down a heated body in this smoldering tale but I can guarantee it'll raise your body temperature a notch or two.

PERFECTION by Summer Devon

Bryan thought nothing of agreeing to be a lab rat in exchange for an extraordinary amount of money, until the experiment went very wrong. The experiment had unexpected results and suddenly he's irresistible to women. Now he's running from the throngs of women who desire him and the goons who are determined to learn the secret to the essence he exudes... it could be worth millions.

While on the run, Bryan meets Allie, a late night waitress at a diner. He's immediately attracted to her but fears any attraction she feels for him may be a direct result of his the experiment. The goons who are after Bryan decide that they'd like Allie to visit their facilitiles for some testing. This is something that Bryan has no intention of allowing. Somewhere out there is the perfect woman and having sex with her will cure him of this affliction. Can Allie possibly be the cure to what ails him?

Summer Devon turns the male fantasy of being irresistible to women into a nightmare in this little gem of a story. I could just visualize this poor guy being mobbed by women and his fear that Allie will do the same thing. I loved the way Allie and Bryan form a bond and vow to help each other. Among such chaos their relationship is gentle and sweet and of course, very hot!

TAMING HIM by Michelle M. Pillow

When Maggie Stewart's car dies on a deserted road she tries to convince herself that there is no such thing as alien abductions. Unfortunately the flying saucer and the gorgeous alien who emerges from it appear to be very real. As he approaches the car Maggie tries to lock the doors but the locks refuse to stay down. He finally opens the door and she screams to no avail. The alien touches her and instead of fear, she's filled with longing and hope.

Vladei has waited a long time to find his companion. He wants badly to have someone in his quarters to return home to each night. He believes that the gods sent him to her... all she has to do is tame the dragon in order for her to become his wife.

Michelle M. Pillow tells a thoroughly exciting tale in TAMING HIM. Readers will easily be able to understand the emotional plight that both characters are going through during this story. If you're curious about what it means to tame the dragon, well I suggest you read this story. You'll get a kick out of the significance of that particular statement, I know I sure did.

Kimberly Dean, Summer Devon and Michelle M. Pillow will have your senses rioting with the three thrilling tales in their anthology TAMING HIM. Each story is extremely different and packed with raw emotions and exciting situations. The men are unforgettably hot and you can't help but adore the women who are bold enough to claim them. Every story is a delight to read and will have readers searching for more books by each of these authors. All three of these stories have been previously released as e-books though Ellora's Cave.

5.0 out of 5 stars three delightful erotic romances, December 28, 2006
This review is from: Taming Him: Ellora's Cave Presents (Paperback)
"Fever" by Kimberly Dean. Delia Jenkins is very ill with a high fever, but comes to work at Lloyd Security Systems because she has only been there two months and fears losing her job as she has a project budget due today; she adheres to "presentism" instead of absenteeism. Her peer Robbie informs the boss Jackson Lloyd that he is taking her to bed. Not long afterward, a drugged ailing Delia is awakened by a compassionate touch. As she feels better she sees her hero nearby nursing her though she wants him to provide her a different type of 104 degrees fever.

"Perfection" by Summer Devon. Metcher Corporation's experiment with pheromones made Bryan Hartigan irresistible to women, which proves a curse as he can go nowhere without a woman chasing his body; stalkers are the norm. He only recently learned from Dr. Nathan that his only escape is to find Ms. Perfect. However as he seeks her he also has to elude women and an apparent group that want to steal his essence even if it means killing him to do so. At a restaurant he meets Allie the waitress, who is turned on to him, but for the first time in months he is turned on too.

"Taming Him" by Michelle M. Pillow. Maggie Stewart is driving by herself when she sees an alien spaceship lands nearby. She thinks of fleeing before she becomes an alien abduction statistic, but then she sees the hunk Vladei. He kidnaps her, but on his vessel he treats her like no human ever has before. Instead of a prisoner or a slave, she is a queen given regal pleasure by her king.

These three erotic romances contain delightful storyline, hot hunks, and fully developed (not just their boobs) females who keep each tale focused. Sub-genre fans will enjoy these "everyday" sirens teasing, tantalizing, and taming their testosterone men.

5.0 out of 5 stars Taming Him, August 13, 2007
This review is from: Taming Him: Ellora's Cave Presents (Paperback)
Fever by Kimberly Dean

Delia Jenkins is sick, and getting sicker by the minute. Even as her fever rages through her she responds to the man who has come to care for her. His touch ignites an unstoppable passion in both of them. When she recovers, will Delia regret the passionate night she shares with her healer or will he turn out to be the man she has been wanting for?

Fever is an erotic fantasy with a touching romance. It's hot, sexy and romantic.

Perfection by Summer Devon

Bryan Hartigan could have any woman he wants because every woman wants him. An experiment gone bad has women uncontrollably lusting after him. According to the Dr. only the perfect woman can cure him. When Bryan meets Allie Hamdon, he discovers what the perfect woman really means.

Perfection is fun and predictably romantic. It's sweet and sexy and Allie and Bryan are terrific together.

Taming Him by Michelle M. Pillow

Maggie Stewart is desperate to believe that the spaceship and the sexy alien that has emerged from it are just a dream. All too soon Maggie realizes that her dream man is very real and he's come to take her as his bride.

Maggie may have found what most women consider to be the perfect man in Taming Him. Vladei is sexy, considerate and willing to share.

The trio of stories in Taming Him are creative, sexy and romantic. This is a very fun anthology to read.
