About this book
“This is why I read romances - to escape into a world that is magical and where good triumphs over evil.” BookAddict Reviews After years in foster care, Breanne Gallagher has the stable life she’s always wanted, living with her foster sister and working as a chef. Then one devastating night, a hellish creature invades her apartment and shatters her fragile existence. Shifting between monster and man, it slaughters her foster sister and assaults Bree. Alone, wounded, her beloved home tainted by gruesome memories, Bree flees to a tiny wilderness town, following her only clue to her past.
Shapeshifting warriors, Zeb and Shay move from one pack to another, hunting the hellhounds which prey on their kind. Assigned to Cold Creek, they manage a decrepit fishing lodge for their "human" cover. Their first renter is a pretty human female who trembles at the sight of them—yet stands her ground. She’s foolishly courageous, ferociously determined, and heartbreakingly hurt. Although shapeshifters aren’t attracted to humans, this female’s beauty and compelling scent ignites longings neither loner ever expected to face.
Bree is healing, learning to shoot the biggest pistol she can find, and overcoming her fears, especially of the two deadly, disconcertingly attractive hunters. Her life is back on track…until she tries to save a little girl from a hellhound and discovers that everything she knows about herself is false.

Ah, where to start . . . First, I confess a bias toward this author's work. Her series Masters of the Shadowlands, is bar none, the best in the genre. There was a time when I got upset that she was writing something else instead of more \"masters\", but then I would read the other books. Then I would get hooked on the other books too and wanted her to write faster. It has now reached a point where I begrudge her the time she takes to sleep! Her different series are ALL that good! Must reads!...

I read the first book a while ago and liked it, but not enough to dive right into the next, what’s mistake! This book was incredible. If you’re looking for a good romance that isn’t insta-love, with well-developed characters that grow, and a strong heroine, this is you book. The story of the shifters is so well-developed you don’t have to guess what their culture is about. Also, this is the best representation in a romance of a woman working to get over her rape trauma that I’ve ever read....

I really enjoyed the first book in this series so it was with anticipation that I started reading this one. I remembered meeting one of the main characters, Zeb, in the first book and was very intrigued so that just amped up my interest. This one starts with a human girl, Breanne, who lives in Seattle with her best friend. Her life is ordered just how she likes it with their shared home, stable environment and her job as a pastry chef until one night when her world is shredded apart from a...

Zeb and Shay have seen their far share of hell. They end up in Cold Creek and are trying...

Light DOMINATION,1 SPANKING scene, M/F/M MENAGE Another book by Cherise Sinclair that knocks it out of the park. Other reviews deal with the plot, so let me complement Ms. Sinclair on her writing style. She is a wonder at creating compelling characters, pithy and beautifully written descriptions of the environment that don't intrude, multi-layered plots with lots of challenges for the characters, and HOT, HOT, HOT romance with strong women and dominant men. Her sex scenes are downright orgasmic...
