An alpha lion shifter and lord of the largest pride on the East Coast gets anything he wants until he encounters the sassy, stubborn human female who takes a chunk out of his hair. Her first mistake was running from him and he isn’t about to let her make that mistake again.
Arik knows his duty is toward strengthening his pride by mating with another cat shifter, but all that goes out the window when a certain human woman enters his life and turns it upside down. She challenges him which peeks his interest, but then his protective instincts kick in when her stalker ex threatens her. He will find a way to make it work even if he has to lock her in his loft until she sees reason.
This story starts off with a humorous opening scene and retains that flirty feel throughout the story. The hero is arrogant, confident, and alpha through and through which strikes the heroine as sexy even while she knows it should annoy her. The heroine is stubborn and gets snarky when she feels cornered so she’s a good match for the pushy lion king and keeps him on his toes. The back and forth hot attraction and playful snark make it fun. The story isn’t strongly developed and clips along pretty fast, but it is still a light entertaining read and a good intro to a new series.
All in all, I had a good time with this fun piece and would definitely recommend it to lovers of paranormal romantic comedy.
My thanks for a chance to read this one in exchange for an honest review.

About Eve Langlais
~ New York Times and USA Today Bestseller
Hello, my name is Eve and I am a Canadian author who loves to write hot romance, usually with werewolves, 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 enjoy strong alpha males, and shifters. Lots of big, overprotective shifters. I am also extremely partial to aliens, the kind who like to abduct humans and then drive them insane…with pleasure. Do you like something a little darker? Then check out my cyborgs whose battle with humanity have captivated readers worldwide.
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

I enjoyed this story. I just finished book two. It isn’t as laugh out loud funny as some of her other series, but still very fun. Great review.
I need to catch up and get to book two and three b/c I see book four is coming out. It was definitely fun to read this one.
I like the idea of Lion Shifters, I don’t think I have read any lion shifter books so far. Although the male sounds a bit too stubbornly alpha male for my taste. This sounds like a fun paranormal romance!
He was pretty stuck on himself, but don’t worry, she knocked him down a peg or two. I thought the lion shifter aspect was a fun part.
I love the snarky heroine and the fun banter. (Are you remunder of Lux too?) Teehee I’m obsessed with the whole ‘strong and stubborn hero’ and the ‘sarcastic and witty’ heroine ever since that series! So glad you loved this girl! Happy week and God bless!♡
Oh yes, I’m a Lux fan, too. This gal definitely gave him as good as she got when he got all arrogant on her. Too fun!
I think I’m due for another Langlais. I’m in the mood to read something funny
I know what you mean. I have to pick one of her books up ever so often just for the feeling it gives me.
Looks like a fun read, but I’ll be catching up on the 5 or 6 books by Eve Langlais I already own before I tackle that one 😉
LOL! She is so prolific that it’s hard to keep up. At least they are fast and funny. 😉
Oh yes, when I want a fun, enjoyable read, I always think of her 😉

Langlais is the awesomest author when I wants snark, furry, and sexy 😀 I need to pick this one up!
So true, Sarah! I enjoy all her creatures and started with her purple aliens. I laughed so hard and had to keep reading her books.
I really do love all the different shifter romance stories that are available right now. I haven’t read this author in a while so I might have to give this one a go.
Me too! It’s fun whether they are traditional werewolf or get unique like this lion shifter series.
I’m not sure if it’s this one or not but I picked up two of her books at RAGT ad I REALLY need to get to them!!! Especially if they’re funny!!! I love PNR with romance – anything to put an alpha in his place 😉
Lucky you to catch RAGT! It might very well have been this one since it released near that time. These are definitely humor-filled so I hope you enjoy them when you try them, Kristin.
I really need to read her books and I know I say that every time I read one of your reviews but I really do, lols. Fun and Sexxy is always good!
That’s okay! It’s crazy busy with all the new books that come out each week. I have several that I see good reviews and tell myself I need to read them, but still they wait. 😉
very true Sophia 😉

I like romantic comedy and will keep an eye on this series.
Her stories are full of hilarity. I love them when I need a little pick me up.

I just loved the interaction, and the beginning scene with the chase was just awesome. I laughed so much during this one.
They are such good pick me ups with all the humor and witty interaction.
