Stalking is only a crime among humans. In a lioness’s world, it’s called dating.
Jeoff, is a bit of a killjoy, a super cute one who gets furry on full moons.
But so does she.
Luna is everything Jeoff is not. Outrageous, outgoing, and violent. Very violent, and unafraid to go after what she wants—and she wants Jeoff.
Silly man, he thinks he can resist, but once a lioness sets her sights on a man, paws off! And if anyone thinks to try and take him… There’s a reason why the ladies of the pride win the yearly award for Baddest Biatches.
Fear the claw. *Snarl*.

Stalking is only a crime among humans. In a lioness’s world, it’s called dating.
Luna finally got her own story. I’ve loved Luna since book one. She started off as a fairly small secondary character in book one, but continued to grow as a character as the books went on. She is sorta like the leader of the lionesses in Arik’s pride. All the lionesses are known for their own level of crazy. The don’t really believe in rules and they love to be involved in the fights and Luna is the ringleader of the group.
Jeoff is the leader of the local wolf pack. Since the pride was bigger, Arik was the head ruler of all shifters in the area, but Jeoff was in charge of the wolfs. Jeoff was also the leader of the firm that provided security for the pride. When he comes home to find a naked Luna sunbathing on his apartment floor, he learns that in addition to some of his pack missing, the pride has had some couples go missing. Luna is going to help Jeoff track down where and what happened to the missing shifters.
Jeoff is quite the prude. Luna even refers to him as such on many occasions. He is also very orderly. He is what I might call a “stick in the mud” if you caught me on the right day. However, after spending some time with Luna, he does start to loosen up, even if he fought it every step of the way. He has always dated humans, because according to him, “They cause less drama.” He really doesn’t want to date a lioness, no matter how much he is drawn to the crazy cat.
While Jeoff and Luna are tracking down what happened to these missing couples, they are led to a new nightclub that caters to swingers. Needless to say, they both have different leaves of excitement for checking out the new club. Arik orders Jeoff to go because he doesn’t want Luna going by herself and she was going to go no matter what anyone said. There they meet Gaston Charlemagne. He is the owner of the club and something doesn’t smell right with him.
There is some suspense as they search for the missing shifters. Luna is about kidnapped herself. There is something off with this club and Charlemagne. We meet a new type of shifter, which I really want to learn more about.
The romance is fun, too. Watching Luna finally pull Jeoff slowly out of his shell. Not to mention, watching Luna realize that this will become a long term relationship. Eek! The sex is hot. The quotable quotes are off the charts again. I had a hard time picking which ones to share with you. You just never know what is going to come out of Luna’s mouth. LOL
I’m really excited to get to Reba’s story. I just love the lionesses. They are the most fun in this series. It will be interesting to see who she is paired up with.
“Has the chef at your condo been putting cat nip in the muffins again?”
“No.” Her lips pulled down in a pout. “Apparently it’s a gateway drug to squeaky mouse toys and drinking all the cream?”
“I thought you said it was empty.”
“It is, but given the scene is still rather fresh, I want you to check it out, you know, put that nose of yours to use.”
“I don’t have to be naked for that.”
“Well, then, your wolf is going to look mighty funny running through the woods in your tightie-whities.”
He finished slapping his sandwich together. “You know, iit’s times like this that I remember why I hate dealing with lions.”

Hello, my name is Eve and I am a Canadian author who loves to write hot romance, usually with hot shifters, cyborgs or aliens. I should warn you that I possess a twisted imagination and a sarcastic sense of humor something I like to let loose in my writing.
I love to write, and while I don’t always know what my mind is going to come up with next, I can promise it will be fun, probably humorous and most of all romantic, because I love a happily ever after.
Thanks so much for coming by and checking me out. If you’d like to know more, read some excerpts or find out what’s coming next, then please visit me at http://www.EveLanglais.com

Happy reading!

I’m Melanie and I live in Ohio. I have two horses and a dog. I’m an animal lover, avid book reader and audiobook listener. I like to live vicariously through fictional characters. I enjoy reading and listening to mostly fictional books in the paranormal genre, including Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance and Horror. My favorite paranormal creatures are shifters, doesn’t matter the flavor.
I love it when the women seem like the leaders that pull the guys out of their shells. They also seem to make things funnier and more daring. I can’t wait to read one of Eve Langlais’ books!
Eve Langlais is so funny. I love this series, Kodiak Point/Bitten Point and Welcome to Hell. Oh and Cyborgs. She has so many great books. You really can’t go wrong. LOL

Hangs head in shame, I really need to read this series, heck this author. There was a lot I didn’t understand about your thoughts on the book and I know it’s because this is book 5 in the series and the world has already been built so for the confusion I feel I know I will have to read the books myself. Great review nonetheless, I think I’m going to like these lionesses because of their attitudes lol.
She has so many great series. I do love this series. Welcome to Hell is another of my favorites. I also love Kodiak Point and Bitten Point. I do like the lionesses. There is another book planned in this series for another lionesses.

Glad you finally got her story and that it was a good one. I love when series are still going strong after a handful of books.
Eve does a great job keeping a series going, though she doesn’t have any really long series. Her books are hilarious.

Sounds like another good one from Eve Langlais! 🙂

She has so many great books. It is hard to keep up.

I let this series get away from me while I was finishing up others. I love that they are such opposites which makes it fun.
It is so hard to keep up with Eve. She writes so fast. I’m behind on several series.

I haven’t started this series yet. I’m looking forward to getting to it though. Thanks for the great review.

It is a fun series, but then I think everything by Eve Langlais is fun. Her stuff is hilarious, IMO.

For some reason I can’t see your rating on my phone but I do know you love this author. One of these days I need to read one of her shifter books as you make them sound so good!
That would be because I forgot to select a rating. *hangs head in shame*. It was a four star read. I really loved it. So funny. I’ve now updated my post. Thanks for mentioning it.

Nice review. I read book one, but haven’t had a chance to read the others yet.
This series is very much fun. I really like the Omega and this one. They both have the kinda crazy females in them. LOL

I haven’t read or listened to any of the books in this series, Melanie, but I’m a huge Langlais fan 🙂 It’s good to know that you enjoyed this instalment so much.
Have a wonderful week!

This is just as much fun as all Eve Langalis series. I still have a bunch to try. I know you were a fan of the alien books, which I haven’t started yet. I do plan to soon. I have the first Alien Abduction book audio. I still need to try it.

She sounds cool 🙂
I really loved Luna since book one. I’m so glad she got a book.

I don’t know what it is about shifter books, but it just makes the human side of things more interesting than it would be in a contemp… for me anyway. 🙂 I love the sound of this lioness and I really need to get started on this series.
Melissa (Books and Things) recently posted…The Winner’s Kiss by Marie Rutkoski
I don’t read many contemporary romances. There is something about adding the paranormal aspects. Plus, PNR usually has more suspense in them too. I hope you get a chance to try this series. I think you would enjoy it.
