Lions and Tigers and Bears by Kit Tunstall, Kate Steele & Jodi Lynn Copeland

Hidden Heart By Kate Steele


Rafe Kutter is hiding a terrible secret, and with it, his heart. He's a werebear determined never to pass on his curse to a child of his own. Bold and bewitching Lindy Timberlane not only frees his heart, but ignites a blaze of passion that he fights to deny.

Amazed by Rafe's abilities and appalled that he believes he's cursed, Lindy risks her own heart to help him accept his gift and hopefully…her love.

I think this was my favorite story in this anthology.  This is only the second book I read with a werebear, and who doesn't think bears are cute?  Cute but dangerous! 



Lion Eyes By Jodi Lynn Copeland

Liddy's out to vindicate the lions in her sanctuary from an accusation of murder and absolve her own burning hunger for the one man she knows better than to want.

Kevin has wanted Liddy since first meeting her. Two obstacles stand in the way of that desire: skin color and the fact that Kevin is leader of the area shapeshifter pride.

Too many humans fear shapeshifters, and Kevin believes Liddy may be among them, especially when the truth is revealed—it isn't a normal lion responsible for the killing, but one of Kevin's own kind.

I was a little confused by as animals they couldn't smell other of their kind!  They didn't even know each other of their pride, and used different names when in animal form.  I liked the fact that the mother of Liddy had a total change of heart at the end of the story.

Tiger Eye By Kit Tunstall

The attack of a tiger nearly killed vet Grant Hayden as a child, and only the strength of the big cat saved him. But the ritual performed by an African medicine man also left him with the side effect of taking on a tiger's form. Guarding his secret has necessitated he not get too close to any woman. That proves difficult when Dr. Zinsa Senghor takes up temporary residence in his clinic to escape the nearby fighting of the civil war ravaging Mekimba. Zinsa is more temptation than he can withstand, but Grant fears her reaction when she discovers the nature of the beast locked inside him.

I really wanted to know more about Zinsa's abilities.  She must have had some based on what her father had told her about finding her other half.  I did enjoy the story.
