Publisher Comments:

In national bestseller Christine Warren’s Others novels, vampires, witches, werewolves, and more have come out of the supernatural closet. Now, the world as we know it will never be the same...

Kitty Sugarman is a lot tougher than her name implies. Still, she’s content with how her small- town life keeps her removed from all the changes happening in the world—like the Unveiling of the Others. That is, until a near-tragedy strikes and Kitty discovers she has abilities . . .thanks to a father she never knew was alive. He also happens to be a were-lion and leader of one of the most powerful Prides out West.

WALK ON THE WILD SIDE

When Kitty heads to Vegas to find out more about her father, it’s his sexy, seductive second-in-command or baas of the Pride, Marcus Stewart, who commands her attention. Now that she has tempted Marcus’s hunger for a mate, Kitty finds herself stuck in a vicious struggle for her father’s fortune, while deadly unrest stirs within the pride. Kitty’s rivals won’t rest until she’s gone for good, but Marcus will fight until his last breath to save her…even if it means going against the pride.

Synopsis:

Kitty Sugarman is a lot tougher than her name implies. Still, she's content with how her small- town life keeps her removed from all the changes happening in the world--like the Unveiling of the Others. That is, until a near-tragedy strikes and Kitty discovers she has "abilities . . ."thanks to a father she never knew was alive. He also happens to be a were-lion and leader of one of the most powerful Prides out West.

When Kitty heads to Vegas to find out more about her father, it's his sexy, seductive second-in-command or "baas" of the Pride, Marcus Stewart, who commands her attention. Now that she has tempted Marcus's hunger for a mate, Kitty finds herself stuck in a vicious struggle for her father's fortune, while deadly unrest stirs within the pride. Kitty's rivals won't rest until she's gone for good, but Marcus will fight until his last breath to save her...even if it means going against the pride.

About the Author

CHRISTINE WARREN lives on the East Coast because landlocked states make her claustrophobic. Her only other fear is that she will one day run out of reading material, an eventuality she sought to prevent by taking up writing herself. She draws on her degree in literature and history, as well as on her vivid imagination, to tell stories she enjoys about people who entertain her. In doing this, she figures someone somewhere will eventually laugh at her jokes. Christine loves to hear from readers and can be reached at www.christinewarren.net.

WOW! I love the way Christine Warren writes and I'm a HUGE fan of her "Others" series. "Walk on the Wild Side" is the 5th book and this time she serves us a wicked hot helping of werelion, or as they prefer Leos. If you've missed out, here are the other books in order in this series: "Wolf at the Door", "She's No Faerie Princess", "The Demon You Know", and "Howl at the Moon". They're hot and they're supernatural.

Kitty was a perfectly normal 24-year-old farmgirl. She was raised by her grandparents after her mother got knocked up at 16 and left her on their doorstep on her way out of town. Kitty always thought her father was a local boy who died before she was born. During a traumatic car wreck, Kitty 'shifts' for the first time and subsequently learns that her father is one of the "Other", a werelion to be specific, and he lives in Las Vegas and has known about her for 23 years. She really doesn't want anything from him except the chance to tell him off but good...OK, and maybe he can help her learn to control this whole lion thing.

Max is the 2nd in command of Kitty's father's pride. He's also about to become the Leo because Kitty's father is dying. When Max is dispatched to pick Kitty up at the airport, he's fully prepared to protect his Leo from his "long-lost, money-hungry, accidental daughter". Instead, he's captivated by this vulnerable, yet strong southern beauty. It doesn't take long before he realizes somebody's out to kill her. It also doesn't take long before he realizes he'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe and mark her for his own.

Mmmm, mmmmm, mmmmm...I want me a werelion just like Max. Their attraction sizzles from the first meeting, and the love scenes? Get me some water and a cigarette!
