Therian Heat Part 2 - Box Set, #9 - E-book - ePub

THERIAN PRISONER: Though Devon comes from a line of cougar-shifters, her own animal nature has not yet been defined. The mysterious "backers" have captured her, intent on using her untapped Therian abilities for unknown ends. She escapes from their prison, but not from the emotional scars left by their abuse. Ian, an ancient Therian raptor, offers her protection and encouragement. Devon has always wanted Ian, always felt a connection deeper than friendship.
But Ian insists he's too old and jaded to make Devon an honorable mate. If she hopes to feel whole again, she must regain control over her emotions and desires. And she desires Ian. At first, Ian resists Devon's attempts at seduction. She needs a shoulder to cry on, not a demanding lover, and Ian is never satisfied until his partners surrender unconditionally. But Devon stirs primal instincts and awakens ravenous longings he has suppressed for centuries.
He wants her, but he fears the darkness inside him will destroy her. THERIAN PRIZE: When Heather's father offers the right to mate with her as the prize in a vicious tournament, she refuses to submit and runs for her life. Knowing the last place wolf hunters will search for her is in the heart of cat territory, she seeks the help of Jake, an irresistible and powerful tiger-shifter. Jake and Heather have lusted for each other for years but loyalty to their respective clans has kept them apart.
Thrown together by danger, they slowly succumb to the temptation of forbidden passion. As the lovers lose themselves in each other, the hunt for Heather intensifies. Not only is her father still hot on her heels, a group of human scientists have targeted Heather, convinced they can use her unique shifter status for their own twisted ends.
