New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon and rising stars Jaid Black and Kresley Cole unlock the pleasures and perils of embracing the boldest and most powerful of lovers---100% alpha males---in three sensually erotic tales. Discover the physical rapture of his muscular arms....Become a prisoner of passion, swept away by an encounter with his primal side....And get lost in the all consuming thrill of white-hot pursuit by a relentless stranger who may be your most dangerous foe, the best lover you've ever had--or both. Let your fantasies run wild with these unforgettable novellas where bigger is most definitely better---and playing easy-to-get is the only way to go! From New York Times bestselling author Sherrilyn Kenyon comes "Turn Up the Heat," the story of an average woman who wins the vacation of a lifetime - a trip to Sex Camp. But what Allison George gets is a race for her life with none other than an ex-Mafia hit man who is now being sought by his prior employer. Vince Cappelleti knew the island was a risky proposition, but he'd run out of options. Now the only thing he wants in his sights is Allison, but in order to have a future with her, he must first deal with his past. Jaid Black's sizzling hot "Hunter's Oath" sends grief-stricken Sofia Rowley to the Arctic Circle, where her brother, a U.S. Army officer, was lost in a deadly helicopter crash. She's about to take a shocking journey into a secret underground world where Viking bride-hunters auction off their bounty... and where a strapping warrior vows to make this beautiful Outsider his. Possession and passion entwine in Kresley Cole's sultry story, "The Warlord Wants Forever." Nikolai Wroth, a ruthless vampire warlord, searches for his Bride - the one woman who can render him truly alive. When his fevered chase leads to Myst the Coveted, a Valkyrie seductress who craves only freedom, a battle of domination and desire begins. Will the power of her seductive wiles overcome his strength? Or will she surrender and experience the deliciously agonizing lust that Nikolai has endured waiting for his one and only Bride? 9882 7 2 2006 Playing Easy to Get (Includes: Immortals After Dark, #0.5; Vikings Underground, #3; and B.A.D. #5) total:658|5:215|4:218|3:179|2:44|1:2| 658 2574 1123 57 5 4 false false Sat Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Fri Oct 17 07:33:28 -0700 2008 Sat Jun 06 22:26:09 -0700 2009 A Hunger Like No Other first.
