Review: I WANT A CAT! I WANT A CAT! - After reading Feline Breeds 1, I couldn't wait for Feline Breeds 2, The Man Within. Taber has protected Roni since she was 11 years old and has watched over her into adulthood. Roni has always loved Taber, but doesn't know that he is one of the Feline Breeds who has animal DNA and escaped from the experimentation labs. He stays away from Roni sexually because he doesn't want to involve her in his dangerous life, since the Council (who forcibly altered men and women with animal DNA) is hunting the Breeds. They finally are going to get involved sexually, but are torn apart by treachery and deceit, but not before Taber has "marked" Roni as his mate. When Taber sees Roni being attacked by reporters because of her "mark", he decides that it's well past time he claim her as his mate. And claim her he does! This book has lots of "leave nothing to the imagination" sex, but more than that, it has a story that grabs you and doesn't let go. Taber expects Roni to accept that they are mated and she will just accept it - not so. Roni gets in Taber's face every chance she gets. The great thing about that is, Taber is a prime hunter who doesn't take crap from anyone - but he loves it when Roni stands up for herself. Anyone who has read the Wolf Breeds from Lora Leigh will absolutely love the Feline Breeds. Buy the book - sit back and prepare to be entertained and aroused. I can't wait for the next Feline Breeds book to come out.
Review: erotica at top form - This is another in Lora Leigh's Breed series. Genetically created men and women, genes altered so they carry traits of big cats, wolves and other animals. The series has endless possibilities, and look for Leigh to carry it to NYC mainstream print soon. This is a super-charge erotica tale, yet Leigh has a craft that transcends erotica. Roni is a poignant character. Found hiding in a Wood by Taber when she was eleven, he has kept watch over her, tried to protect her. Now, she is a grown woman and he is still getting her out of scrapes. Roni is used to, at best, an indifferent father, abusive when he wants money from her. Worse, he's always getting into trouble and it comes down on Roni. She has grown up basically alone, no one there for her. Roni has wanted Taber, been in love with him since she was sixteen, but Taber ignores this and tries to be a big brother. Taber keeps his distance because he is Feline Breed. In Wolf Breed the genes are recessive, but not in the cats. Many of the feline traits are evident, so he feels he has no right to love Roni. As Roni pushes for more from Taber, he marks her. Something about the Felines, that physical mark their mate, similar to a passion mark, but the mark never vanishes. Due to Roni thinking Taber didn't' want her and Taber getting a message Roni wanted nothing to do with him, they keep their distance for over a year. However, when the news of the Breeds exploded on the television, her father becomes aware Roni carries Taber's mark. Instead of keeping his mouth shut daddy dearest sees it as a way to make big bucks. The covert operatives that ran the Breed Program are hunting them down and killing them. They also want more information on the mates, the women whom they are claiming. Roni would bring a big chunk of change for her father. When she refuses to cooperate, he reveals her bond with Taber, forcing Taber to come claim her to save her from those hunting him. He knows she is a target now, that he must come and claim his mate. Only Roni is unprepared for what that means, and really doesn't want to be his mate now that he turned his back on her for so long. It's erotica, not the more mainstream of the brilliant Elizabeth's Wolf. So know that going in. Leigh is a talent to be reckoned with. Where she really excels is her characters. She makes you know these people, makes you care. I eagerly await her jump to NYC publishers and see what she does with a bigger showcase.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Leigh Sizzles
*by H***) on April 9, 2007*

Recently I reviewed Lora Leigh's Tempting the Beast, Feline Breeds 1. It's an erotic romance centered around the unusual relationship between Callan, a man who is the product of genetic experimentation (a mix of human and feline DNA), and Merinus, a human journalist who wants to protect him. Book 2 is its own, separate story, but it does pick up shortly after the first book left off. In it, Taber, one of Callan's Pride, discovers that Roni, a young woman from his past, is his own destined mate--and she's in a great deal of danger from the people who created him. As I mentioned in my review of the first book, despite the military and genetics aspects of the plot, this isn't science fiction--it's a paranormal romance. The "science" is hand-wavy plot device stuff. That said, it's no more flimsy than you'd see on your average entertaining Saturday night horror flick, so unless you're a real stickler for believable science in your plots, I don't think it's a problem. In most trilogies book two is the slowest and has the most problems; in this case, I like it better than books one and three. Taber and Roni have great chemistry, and there's a tenderness to their relationship that I enjoyed. The sex scenes are even better in this one--same warning though, they're far from tame in content and language, so they aren't for prudes. While the sex does get a bit rough, one of the things I love about Leigh's stories is that the men & women hold their own with each other very well--in and out of bed. The writing contains a few perspective shifts that confused me as to whose thoughts were being explored at the moment, but other than that it's good. While the story itself stands alone, I highly recommend reading the series in order as sub-plots and character threads continue throughout. If you're looking for a high plot-so-sex ratio, or restrained, tame sex scenes, this book and series are not for you. If, however, you like things wild and crazy and don't care if the premise takes a back seat to the sex, this is a searing hot book in a fun series.
