In Eye of the Tiger, Gulf Coast/Tampa area erotic romance author Nicole Austin continues the tale of the Predator Project, this time introducing Jenny Crosby, a young nursing student whose husband Nash Crosby has been missing, presumed run off with another woman. To recover from her emotional wounds, Jenny takes a vacation but, while driving to the little bungalow she’s rented for the endeavor, she runs down a naked man, shivering in the middle of the darkened road.
Imagine her surprise when she finds out the poor man is none other than her missing husband. A hot reunion ensues, and then Nash slowly divulges the weird story of his disappearance. Seems he found out a bit too much about his employers, the Predator Project, and they’ve been holding him, running experiments on him, until just recently when his friend Micah helped him escape. Now Nash and Micah are determined to bring the Predator Project down. If Jenny wouldn’t mind staying out of the way in this pleasant little vacation spot all the better.
But as the men go off to execute their plan, Jenny has other ideas.
Will they succeed in their mission? Will Nash and Jenny make it out of this predicament alive? And will Jenny come to terms with the fact that her hubby now boasts tiger DNA, thanks to the freaks at the Predator Project? You’ll have to read to find out.
Though the Eye of the Tiger short novella is the second in a trilogy of paranormal erotic romances from Ms. Austin and Ellora’s Cave (on their Twilight imprint--and thanks to Ms. Austin for providing my reading copy!) no, you need not have read the first to enjoy this story. (And there’s a review of it here, if you’d like to peruse it). Each book stands alone. If you wish to though, of course, all the better, and as with the previous volume, I recommend Eye of the Tiger for anyone who likes hot shape shifters, Alpha males, and smart (and smart mouthed!) heroines. Ellora’s Cave has it in ebook format, and in the "Predators" compilation in paperback, (here) and you might also be able to find "Predators" at Tampa area Borders or Barnes and Noble romance shelves. if you look hard enough. This is one you should seek out. I think you will enjoy it as much as I.
