Another dirty, enjoyable quick read.
Title: A Kitty In The Lion's Den (#3 in Sweet Water series) Author: Jenika Snow Genre: NA/Adult, Shifter, Erotic Romance Rating: ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ Amazon | Goodreads |
Maverick Storm is a lion shifter, but he is also a monster. For the better part of nineteen years he was a hit man for some of the most ruthless shifters in the world. He is a cold blooded killer, and without remorse. But that isn't him anymore. He is trying to live a normal life, but it seems fate has other plans, especially when his mate is the daughter of his enemy.
Kettah Milokov is a Pallas's cat shifter, and the daughter of the biggest Russian shifter mafia boss in America. Her life is not her own, and so she leaves, but can't escape when she runs into her mate, Maverick. But he is a heartless killer, and the male nightmares are made of. But Maverick must protect her when she is found, and that means he will have to unleash his lion to keep her safe, and kill his enemy.
Maverick is one bad ass lion shifter, very unlike our typical heros. He is one hunk of man and a dirty talker. If only Jenika notched up the dirty talk a little bit more. It would've been even more yummy. Kettah is a sweetheart but not a pushover. She's very likable. I love how Maverick becomes softer in the presence of Kettah <3 Toooo cute!
I would love it more if it was longer, with a touch more suspense and steamy scenes. There's hot steamy sex but after mating, the story progresses quickly and no more steam. That's always the problem with short stories...They just leave you wanting more.
