Mark of the Beast By Tawny Taylor
Book 1 in the Animal Urges series.
City girl Abby Clumm wouldn't normally travel to remote cabins in Alaska alone. But expecting her Survivor-type friend to be arriving shortly, she reluctantly makes the journey to their rented cottage solo. She'll settle in for a quiet night before a toasty fire with a pot of coffee and a good book.
Unfortunately, things don't go as she plans—no real surprise, they never do—and she finds herself alone in the boonies, a shotgun she doesn't know how to use and a failing wooden door the only things standing between her and a very hungry animal outside.
Research scientist Tarik Evert has no idea what's wrong. He's suddenly driven by a need so urgent it's painful. The scent of a woman nearby beckons him, sends him staggering outside into the cold. And then somehow he's at her door, naked and shivering, not sure what just happened…or what is about to happen if she lets him inside. He only knows one thing—the hunger that brought him to her in the first place.
And that's just the beginning of their troubles…
Touch of the Beast By Tawny Taylor
Book 2 in the Animal Urges series
Katie Spenser is looking forward to some R & R with her best friend Abby when she makes the loooong trip from Chicago to Alaska. Unfortunately, rest and relaxation are not what she gets.
A missing best friend.
Men who turn into bears…
Bad guys shooting guns…
The only part of Katie's so-called vacation that's pleasant is Raul Zant. She simply cannot resist a guy so sexually dominant that a mere glance produces delightful tingles and quivers of anticipation. And the sex… Two words: Mind. Blowing.
Security Officer Raul must turn over his renegade best friend to Omega, or his brother will die. He loves his brother, but handing over his best friend isn't exactly painless. And speaking of pain, his desire for Katie is so relentless and intense it's agonizing. She will surrender. He must have her.
Together, with assassins at their heels and fiery lust driving them into each other's arms, Katie and Raul must rescue their friends, uncover who is behind Omega, and learn whether there is a cure for Raul and Tarik's unusual "ailment".
The trick will be staying alive.
