Tempting the Beast by Lora Leigh
3.0
So I consider myself pretty well-versed in smut. I've gone through a pretty thorough gambit of everything from menage to alien sex slaves. And even I found the shear amount of sex in this book a bit overtaxing. Additionally, I think the word "cream" has totally been ruined for me.

Despite that, I did end up liking the book more than I thought I would. I found the heroine a little TSTL and annoying, but besides her, I thought the characters and plot were interesting. I probably could have used a bit more non-sex plot to balance out all mating, though.
For me, I think the story of Sherra and Kane seems much more appealing than Callan and Merinus in this one, and I'm definitely interested in continuing in the series to find out what happens with them. So while this may not be a perfect book, it did interest me enough to read more.
