He doesn’t just growl in bed. Project Therianthrope has changed Phoenix. While he might still have a killer smile, he’s now also equipped with murderous claws and stripes—and lots of questions. Researching online leads him to legends of tiger shifters in Malaysia. Wanting to know more about his condition, he stows aboard a container ship and sets out on a quest for answers, only to end up in a zoo! Luckily, he’s not caged for long, as he reveals himself to Nadirah, the zoo’s tiger keeper. She’s offered to help him find out more about her country’s striped shifters, a task made difficult because of those hunting Phoenix. Will Phoenix find the answers he seeks, or will he settle for a hidden life with the beautiful Nadirah by his side?

Only a big bear can handle a tiger's claws — and passion. What possessed Takhi to team up with Yuri? He's a bear who doesn't take anything seriously—unless attempts to get into her pants count. He seems convinced they'll end up in bed. Not in this lifetime, furball. Her lips say no, but her eyes and body . . . Yuri knows it's only a matter of time before Takhi realizes they're meant to be together. In the meantime, they embark on a mission to eradicate all knowledge of Project Therianthrope, the nasty science experiment spearheaded by General Davidson and Dr. Levy. However, they run into trouble early on—and by trouble Yuri doesn't mean Takhi's ability to deflect his panty-dropping smile. They're not the only ones looking for answers. Patient Thirty-nine is on a quest to destroy all those it considers tainted like Takhi. Threatening Yuri's sweet, striped kitten is the one thing guaranteed to wipe the smile from his face and bring out the claws. The question is, does Takhi trust herself enough to give in to temptation and not leave stripes? Contains mature themes.
