Therian Promise

Kyle is the youngest feline-shifter ever to sit on the Prime council and he's determined to prove himself worthy of the honor. A latent female with unbelievable potential has been identified by the wolves, so Kyle sets out to find her before his enemies make her one of them.

Terrified and alone, Ava manages to stay one step ahead of her pursuers until a disturbing vision leaves her weak and confused. She steps out into the cool mountain morning and a gorgeous stranger pulls her into his arms.

From the moment they first touch, passion erupts between the unsuspecting couple. Kyle is attracted to Ava's quick wit and feisty spirit while his cat wants to touch her, taste her and make her scream with pleasure. Trust doesn't come easy for Ava. Her past has taught her to be wary, but she senses a soul-deep connection with Kyle. Each secret they unearth reveals a more challenging conflict, yet together they can face any enemy.

Therian Prey

Before Carissa has time to react to her sister’s disappearance, she’s kidnapped and taken deep into the Colorado mountains. Her kidnapper swears he’s protecting her, but Carissa doesn’t know what to believe. He emanates danger, strength and raw sexuality. She’s drawn to him, craves his demanding kiss and the slide of his hard body against and into hers.

Quinn has always been an outsider, scorned and mistrusted by other Therian shapeshifters. Now he’s in the middle of a budding civil war and he’s not sure how to disentangle himself without endangering Carissa. Though her powers are latent, Carissa has the potential of becoming the most powerful Therian the world has ever seen.

It was Quinn’s intention to bring Carissa to safety and simply walk away, but one taste of her sweet lips and he knows he’ll never let her go. She won’t be truly safe until she’s selected her mate—and he intends to be the one she chooses.

Tears of the Dragon
Length: Plus Size
 
Neither wars nor famine nor Fairy curses have intimidated Lady Rowena of Pendragon, but now she finds herself locked in a battle of wills with Dominic of Capstow. Dominic is William Marshal’s trusted knight, and the regent has sent him to escort her to court so her scheming stepfather’s claim against her can be heard.
 
She’s infuriated and insulted—and intrigued. Dominic is by far the most attractive man ever to coerce his way beyond her defenses. He’s dangerous and appealing and she needs him in her bed for reasons she dare not reveal. Knowing little about seduction, but more than willing to learn, Lady Rowena sets out on a conquest of her own.
 
The stakes are high, higher even than Lady Rowena realizes. For the Fairy curse is real and dark forces are at work, ready to tear the young lovers apart and rob them of their happily ever after.

Genre(s): Sci-Fi / Fantasy Romance
Magic, faeries, and romance collide in the fantasy tale of Tears of the Dragon! While I was intrigued by the original storyline for this novel, by the end of the book I found myself disappointed in it instead. I felt like there could have been more to it, more about the faeries involved and the curse placed on the occupants of Pendragon Castle. While this should have been one of the main themes of the book,

City of Tears

Ontarian Chronicles, Book Three.

Commander Lyrik cet Barrel must determine if the genetically engineered, cybernetically enhanced woman is too dangerous to live. His immediate and passionate attraction to the subject of his study isn't making his assignment any easier. She might be the biggest threat Ontariese has ever faced or an invaluable ally in the conflict awaiting them.

Saebin is battling for control over the neuro-stimulators and munitions implants that have changed her into a ruthless assassin. She has never known kindness and doesn't trust the virile male she encounters as she awakens from stasis. He stirs desires she doesn't understand and longings she can't ignore. He insists she's been rescued, not captured by an enemy. But Saebin has never known anything but captivity.

Note: This book was previously published elsewhere under the same title and has been re-edited for Cerridwen Press.

Genre(s): Paranormal Romance
This was an entertaining and novel read. Saebin and her story enchanted me; Cyndi Friberg definitely spun an interesting web with some unexpected twists. I do think that in some cases the plot becomes somewhat over-encumbered with additional story lines and characters. The story could have been split up into a duet or even a trilogy, in my opinion, as the plot seemed a bit too big for its current length.
