Description:
Charlie Ledbetter has a big
problem.
She doesn't like cats. In fact, she's allergic to them. And now she is one. . . sort of.
Caught in the middle of
a vicious argument between two men at the pet store where she shops for her dog
Pinky, Charlie doesn't just end up nipped in the fight when it's over -- she
ends up having a horrible allergic reaction and much sneezing, wheezing and gulping
Benadryl like it's tequila ensues.
But that's not even the
half of it.
When one of the two men
involved in the scuffle, Quinn Piljor, comes to apologize for his part in the
scuffle, he brings his brother Luke with him. Tall, blond, sexy, off the chain
hot Luke. A man Charlie's immediately attracted to. The brothers explain her
little allergy problem can be solved with a ritual that takes place upon the
full moon -- a sex ritual.
Crazy that, huh?
Charlie finds out what
the Piljor brothers say really is true. In order to stop her violent allergic
reaction to her new body's chemistry, her only shot involves having sex with
Quinn.
But what does a girl do
when the man she really wants to be with isn't the man she has to be with? Charlie

About
the author from the back of her book:
Dakota
Cassidy found writing quite by accident and it's "been madness ever
since." Who knew writing the grocery list would turn into this? Dakota
loves anything funny and nothing pleases her more than to hear she's made
someone laugh. She loves to write in many genres with a contemporary flair.
Dakota lives with her two handsome sons, a dog and a cat. (None of them shape
shift -- that we know of.)
My
View:
Charlie
is out shopping for her beloved dog when she gets in the middle of a scuffle
between two men in the pet food store. Unknown to her, one of the men is a
shapeshifting tiger. When he accidentally bites her, she starts showing signs
of turning into a shapeshifting tiger herself. That might not be so bad if she
wasn't deathly allergic to cats and her dog wasn't so afraid he wouldn't come
out from under the bed.
So
here she is with a problem and her new shapeshifting friends tell her there is
one way to change that, but she has to have sex with the one who bit her. The
only problem is she isn't the least bit attracted to him, but his brother. Just
what is a girl to do, when the Benadryl isn't working? Her new friends have just
the answer.
I've
always loved Dakota Cassidy's style. She has a great whit and playful way with
words. "Catnipped" is just one more fine example.
