Her Hungers
Lilah knew werewolves. Growing up as a human in the Northwoods Pack territory, Lilah also knew Roarke Connelly. But a human would never be good enough to love a werewolf, and broken-hearted, Lilah left the Northwoods vowing never to come back.
And she kept her promise, until a vampire turned her and she needed, one more time, to see her home. A brutal attack there left her wounded and infected with lycanthropy. She became a werepyre, both vampire and werewolf and hated by both species.
Under the protection of Adrian Fitzreal, brother to the vampire who turned her, Lilah knows he'll never be the Alpha, her wolf, and she, craves. But she accepts, because with Adrian's help, she's staying alive, which is all a werepyre can ask for.
Until Roarke shows up. He's got trouble at home. A rogue group of werewolves known as the Dark Moon Dogs wants to take over his pack. But when he finds out Lilah was attacked in his territory, he goes to find out why.
And discovers that she's no longer the teenage girl who hero-worshipped him. She's a grown woman, with a woman's needs and two beasts raging inside her. And right now, they hunger for her Alpha, and for her vampire.

About the author
Mary Winter
125 books90 followersMary commutes between her dream home near the Mark Twain national forest in Missouri and her current residence in Iowa. She lives with a menagerie of animals including an opinionated horse and a cat who was a dog in past life. When not writing spicy tales of erotic romance, she enjoys writing science fiction and fantasy, spending time with her horse, and enjoying the outdoors. Lucky for her, her partner (hero) shares these same passions, and usually both of them can be found in their respective dens writing.
And it’s not far from the truth. Mary began writing in high school after she discovered Silhouette Desire romance novels and realized that she wanted to be the one to write stories that carried readers away from their oh-so-boring lives. She has a deep appreciation and love of the natural, the spirtual, and the metaphysical, which has led to her running Jupiter Gardens and writing for new age and pagan magazines. She is attuned to Reiki II and reads tarot cards.
Right now her household includes six cats, ranging in age from less than six months (Tenzin, former feral kitten) to seventeen years (Tigger, diabetic kitty), her horse, two parrots, a finch flight, a geriatric parakeet flight, and her partner, the hero of her own personal romance story.
Her favorite television shows are Torchwood, Bones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Angel, Dr. Who (new), Battlestar Galactica (new), Babylon 5, Farscape, and Sex in the City. Her favorite movies are Spaceballs, The Cutting Edge, Serenity, Robin Hood Prince of Thieves, the LoTR trilogy, and probably a few others she’s forgetting. Her musical tastes range from Enya, Clannad, David Arkenstone, David & Steve Gordon, Scott McDonald, and AfroCelt Sound System to Metallica, Nine Inch Nails, and others.

I guess this would have been one of those books where I might have bumped it up a tiny bit if we had half stars. But I really don't want to give it three stars. I skimmed passages, threatened to abandon it more than once, and felt let down at the end.
It's erotica, not particularly hot erotica, with a m/f/m threesome consisting of a male vampire, a male werewolf, and a female that is somehow both. You know it's coming ... think Jean-Claude/Anita/Richard only with horribly repetitive sex, and characters you never quite connect to. *wince* Yeah.
This is definitely one of those books where the sex got in the way of the plot. Although, once you dug down, the plot wasn't really there either. The men went from bitter rivals to "okay, we'll share" way too easily.
This is an "in the closet" world where vampires and werewolves are bitter enemies and anyone who is somehow both is considered an abomination that must be destroyed. So the plot involves the rivals trying to protect the woman they both love.
Connected a slight bit more to the werewolf Roary, since he was Lilah's first love (first crush?) as a child. But, at the time, she was human, and he was a wolf and nothing came of it.
Adrian didn't do anything for me at all. His brother was the one who turned Lilah, and apparently Adrian cared for her when the loser brother vanished.
When visiting home Lilah was attacked by an unknown wolf, becoming the weird hybrid. She and Adrian were on the run when Roary caught up with them at the beginning of the book.
After that sex sex attack sex sex argument sex sex .... You get the picture.

This book is so annoying she must have a bucket is all I'am saying I have no emotional connections no feeling whatsoever for the characters it's a repeat of same ,,,,,,acts very little story ?
This book is not to my liking at all and the word bitch is used in every single page your my bitch,,,,I'am the alpha bitch,,,,my bitch needs him,,, etc it's way way over used to the point of getting on my nerves big time . And I don't feel she loves any of the idiots who want or love her she comes across as shellfish, needy and couldn't give a shit about either wolf or vamp

August 27, 2010This book could easily be considered straight up erotica. Lilah, Roarke & Aiden are always getting caught with their pants down.
...
The twists and turns in the story ramp up the drama. Action and sex are pretty much non-stop. I had difficulty finding good places to stop, as there was always something hanging over head.

April 1, 2010DNF. Unfortunately this one didn't work for me. The overload of testosterone, the posturing and the possessiveness while the vamp man and the werewolf man were fighting over the vamp/wolf woman was a bit too much for me.

Meh...I agree with mlady_rebecca. It was kind of like a Jean-Claude/Anita Blake/ Richard affair if they were less moral.. I think it would have been better if there was more storyline and less raunch.

A different read about werewolves and vampires. Lilah was bitten by both a werewolf and vampire. She is in love with both a werewolf and a vampire during this book. Also, she has been hunted by both groups for many years. This is a great read and takes a couple of different routes.

I have to agree with mlady_rebecca. I found myself skimming pages just to get done. I was determined to finish the book or I'm not sure I would have, tempted to put it down more than once.

I dont know how I feel about this one but I am glad I struggle to read it to the end.
I just wanted to know how it ended.
It took me days everytime I put it down I couldn't read it.
