When a monstrous hitman falls in love, you don't want to be caught in the crossfire... Dean is a creature of habit. Wake at 4AM. Brunch with his kid sister at 11AM. Complete various hit jobs and freelance wetwork for the local Naga and Ogre clans between 12-8P, after which he enjoys his standing order at Ma Chérie (while catching the occasional glimpse and bit of conversation with the lovely pastry chef, Cherry, aka the most beautiful woman in the world) before heading back to his nest. Except for tonight, something is wrong. His dinner is slightly burnt. His dessert is more bitter than sweet. And worst of all, something has upset Cherry. He has a hint of what it could be when a few hyenas, enforcers for the local shifter motorcycle club, lope into the dining room and occupy the booth opposite his table. Dean loathes mixing business with pleasure, but for his favored human, he will make her enemies pay with interest. Monstrous Appetites is a Date Night with Bite series of sweet (yet spicy!) standalone stories. If you like cinnamon roll heroes who go feral for their well-meaning but generally hapless mates (fated or otherwise), then snuggle in for these comfort reads.
