Taming Him

by Kimberly Dean, Michelle M. Pillow, Summer Devon

In this steamy anthology, three strong, sexy women use their feminine wiles and powerful seduction to claim the men who can satisfy their every desire. . . .
KIMBERLY DEAN

Fever Miserable at work with a raging fever, Delia Jenkins is sent home by her handsome, masterful boss. She tries to sleep it off, but hours later she is gently awakened by the arousing caress of her powerful knight in shining armor. Delia is still burning up -- with desire for his passionate, stimulating touch to make her feel better...in more ways than one.

SUMMER DEVON

Perfection After volunteering for a lab experiment gone awry, Bryan Hartigan is irresistible to women. Thanks to a "come and take me" chemical that emanates from his pores, every woman wants his body -- and a group of thugs want the million-dollar essence it exudes. While on the run from relentless stalkers, Bryan meets Allie, a sweet, sensual waitress whose luscious curves he can't resist -- and who may be the antidote to his alluring curse.

MICHELLE M. PILLOW

Taming Him Driving alone one night, Maggie Stewart sees an alien spaceship and can't believe her eyes. When a gorgeous, hard-bodied stud named Vladei emerges and kidnaps Maggie, intoxicating her with his euphoric aura and chiseled features, she is utterly confused and tempted at the same time. Once she's aboard the ship, Vladei treats her like a queen, showering her with enticing pleasures and unrequited passion -- until she will do anything to be his.

About the author

When taking the Myers-Briggs personality test in high school, Kimberly was rated as an INFJ (Introverted-Intuitive-Feeling-Judging). This result sent her into a panic, because there were no career paths recommended for the type. Fortunately, it turned out to be well-suited to a writing career. Since receiving that dismal outlook, Kimberly has become an award-winning author of romance and erotica. She has written for seven publishing houses, both domestic and international, and has recently focused her efforts on the exciting world of self-publishing. When not writing, she enjoys movies, sports, traveling, music, and sunshine. In her mind, a beach, some rock 'n' roll, and a good book make for a perfect day.

[Laura · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is my first erotica novel, and I'm just not that into erotica. I thought the first story in this anthology "Fever" was stupid. A girl gets sent home from work with a fever, her boss checks up on her...they go at it like bunnies for 2 days til her fever breaks. Then he tells her she was never sick she just "needed to mate." The sex was hot, but not worth the lack of story.
The second one "Perfection" was interesting, and would have made a better full-length intrigue novel. There were so many missing chunks that it was hard to feel any urgency when Bryan and Allie were on the run. He was a test subject who sweats and exudes a sexual pheromone that makes woman (and yes some men) want to jump him. One girl kidnapped him and tied him to her bed. The sex scenes were mediocre. Not what I expected from erotica. I think the idea for the story was there if she made it a romance suspense novel.
The third was the best by far. I would read Michelle Pillow (what a name!) again. A girl has been having erotic dreams, and when she is (yes) abducted by aliens, her dream lover is no dream. it was a fun read, very Gena Showalter or Sherilyn Kenyon as far as the aliens and the need for females, but add in some erotica and menage. The only story worth anything in this book.

É a primeira vez que fico totalmente sem palavras. Tenho a sensação que mesmo que faça uma série de elogios ou diga alguma coisa, ainda assim será pouco ou irrelevante.

O meu único pesar é que o livro é curtíssimo, mas o conteúdo é vasto. O relacionamento descrito, sem dúvida, é o desejo de 99% das mulheres sãs e que gostam de si mesma.

Só quero deixar claro uma única coisa, adoraria ter um relacionamento assim, igualzinho, sem tirar e nem por mais nada. Será que há algo assim no mundo real. Oh Senhor!!! Que loucura!!!

RECOMENDADÍSSIMO!!!

ADORADÍSSIMO!!!

Definitely preferred the first story over the others, Fever by Kimberly Dean. I think the stories are exciting, but really have to pick up an erotica novel that is just one story, so that it has more story than sex to it. These ladies write well, all 3 of them. The men in the books sound absolutely gorgeous.

I enjoyed each of the book in the anthology. I did feel like I was missing something in the first short story, FEVER. Mates and demons and hell were mentioned so I got the impression they weren't human but it was never explored or explained.

With Michelle M Pillow's TAMNG HIM, I find I want to read more about the Dragoonas. Total alpha men with sexual energy off the charts. I'm all over that.

Kimberly Dean's, Fever, and Michelle M Pillow's ,Taming him, were great stories and are definitely 5 stars.
Summer Devon's,Perfection, was good but not great, about 3 1/2 stars. It was a little slow and "blah-blahy" for me.

I've actually only read Fever by Kimberly Dean which I absolutely love and re-read at least once a year. Definitely a 4.5 star read imo.

lOVED IT....only the first and third were realllllly good. But the first can't imagine myself being horny with a high fever (JUST SAYING) but loved it, didn't care for the second story.

Anthology. Of the three I liked the third best... Still not convinced by anthologies.
