By any means necessary.

Shay Genovee made it her mission to bring her cousin home. Staring into the icy azure gaze of a tiger, she realizes she made some rash decisions. To escape the beast won’t be easy but does she really want to?

Her scent made him primal.

Trace Kuhn didn’t speak because he didn’t have too. As the only tiger in a pride of lions, he let his actions be his words. Until he met a woman whose mouthwatering aroma sent him over the edge of reason. He would have her at any price, even if it cost him his clan.

About the author

Kassanna

81 books184 followers
Kassanna is a strong believer in love at first sight and happily ever afters. After meeting her husband in November and marrying him three months later in February the two have survived and mostly enjoyed every adventure life has thrown their way. Ten years, two children, a couple of dogs and a wild turkey that came out the woods and somehow adopted them - later- the adventure continues.

Writing has always been her passion but fate sometimes has other roads that must first be taken . Navigating the road less traveled was not only unexpected but in the end extremely rewarding. Her books are mainly contemporary romance but she has delved into the paranormal and plans on expanding into other areas as the ideas come to her. Right now she is enjoying life and seeing her work come into fruition make it that much more pleasurable especially when her books make others smile. Kassanna wouldn't have it any other way.

Trace me!

I so enjoyed Book 2 in this series. We first met Trace when El let his mate and wondered about the silent but deadly tiger.

After reading his story, I can say I am in love with Trace. He is quiet and deadly. He speaks volumes with looks and guests than most people speak with hundreds of words. The bond between him and his family is strong but the bond he develops with Shay is beyond measure. I love how he and El have these conversations but El is the only one speaking. I cannot wait for the next book in this series.

Tiger finds his mate

This is a really easy shifter romance. I love the action and the hot shifters. Not too keen on how easily or quickly they start having sex, but different strokes for different folks. I gave it a 4 star rating because of all the grammar and spelling errors.

Trace, Trace, Traceeeeee!!!!!

Lawd A Murcy that Siberian Tiger is something else and sexy :-) I couldn't wait to read his story because I was so intrigued that he couldn't speak but in no way did it diminish his character or his sex appeal.

When we left off from "Prey" which is Book 1 Trace is going completely crazy. Why you ask? Because he has scented his mate who happens to be Nae's cousin and she is mated to the Alpha. Talk about wild, can you imagine going to get your relative and run into all of this chaos and confusion because you have no idea that shifters exist. I was cracking up but then I though about it, I would have probably fainted LOL!!!

Shay (Trace's mate and unbeknownst to her) is Nae's cousin. Here she thought to drag her cousin back to Nevada and possibly get Nae's head examined only to find herself back up against the wall with a Siberian Tiger in front of her daring any of his brethren to come near her. Talk about awkwarddddd, but the connection between the two was undeniable because when Shay thought someone was trying to hurt him, she immediately went on the defense trying to protect him. Once Trace got them out of there, you see and discover a side of Trace that was clearly defined in the first book. Trace is a fierce protector of his family and an assassin, and although he doesn't speak it doesn't mean he can't communicate or understand what is going on around him. And now that he has found his mate, whoa to those who try to do anything to her.

Shay bounty hunter and IT extraordinaire finds herself in the middle of a life that she only though existed in fairy tales. Not only is Trace to gorgeous for his own good in her eyes but she has finally find a man who only wants to take care and protect her. Something she has not experienced especially since she was the one who was the protector and provider for Nae growing up. And now her feelings are mixed up because a part of her want to go back to the known that is in Nevada but her heart is telling her this is where she belongs with Trace, her mate. What will Shay do? Can you convince Nae to leave with her? Can she leave the one man who was made specifically for her? Will Trace fight her leaving? Will Trace let her leave? Or Will Trace convince her that she is worth all of the love he can give her and more? You will have to read the story and find out the answers.

Of course it is always good catching up the Pride Riders Family. As always their is always the enemies trying to usurp the current Alpha, cause chaos and harm. What the enemy doesn't realize that no matter who he recruits or joins his cause, it will not penetrate the Pride Riders.

Well Until My Next Review Ciao Bellas!

And another one gets a mate
2.75 stars. Nothing great nor unexpected in this story-same old soup warmed over, only the names change. Shay Genovee is Nae McCain's cousin and business partner, she has come to the pack's headquarters to convince Nae to return home with her. Like Nae, shortly after her arrival, Shay finds herself mated to Trace Kuhne, a tiger shifter... and so it goes: she's his--addicted to him and his sexual skills. Now two of the Kuhne brothers and pack members are mated; but the major threat, their estranged deranged brother, is till out there reeking havoc!

Trace is not mute when he meets his mate Shay. Pride Alpha Eldridge's brother Ellory is still trying to take over the pride. Ellory escapes after burning down Eldridge's bar and kidnapping Shay, Nae and La. Shay gives in to her feelings for Trace and agrees to stay with him.

It's a short but good story. I can’t wait for the rest. The only odd scene was at the end when Shay wakes up after being unconscious for a week and is ready for sex.

Lions oh my

I really like the story here. Cousin comes to rescue delusional cousin who thinks the motorcycle gang she has hooked up with can turn into lions. The pride riders are a wonderful group of shifters that have taken in other outcasts. The heroine is a hacker and not afraid to pick up a bat or broken bottle in need. Everyone even the secondary characters are well drawn and intriguing :)

Trace and Shay is one hot and sexy couple. I thought El and Nae was fire and ice, but I think Trace and Shay have got them beat. I just couldn't put the book down. I can't wait for the Pride Riders #3.

Keep 'em coming Kassanna.

You've got me hooked with the Blaidd brothers and the Pride Riders.

Good Read

Enjoyed this second installment almost as much as the first one. Good series, good sex scenes and storyline. Good fight scene, makes me wonder what's going to happen next with the brother, Ellory.

2 1/2 stars Definitely better then the first one. The characters were more developed in this one and the suspense was more taught.
