~A Hot Roast With Our Very Own Melissa Stark~
Mary rubs her hands together and squeals. "Oh, this is going to be so hot!"
Melissa arches her brows. "Pun intended, Mary?"
"Of Course! We're celebrating your hot new release with a hot hero in a firehouse filled with hot firemen. What's not hot about that?"
"Not that I don't absolutely adore the idea of celebrating Melissa's new release in a firehouse, but isn't A Cat's Tale an erotic, paranormal romance about an alpha werewolf and a shape-shifting feline heroine?"
Lilly takes a step closer to the fire station chosen for today's roast. Her eyes grow round and her tongue lolls. "Oh. My. God. Would you look at all those shirtless hunks. They look like cover models for a firemen's calendar."
Mac nudges Lilly out of the way. "Then I call dibs on Mr. July!"
AJ looks up from her phone, her eyes nearly bulging from their sockets."Um, how do you know which one is Mr. July?"
Mac shrugs. "Who cares!" She points to a shirtless hunk. "But that guy is the hottest fireman I've ever seen so he must be Mr. July."
Mary whistles. "They're all hot."
"Then what are we waiting for ladies?" Lyn strolls forward. "Our guests are waiting and I'm ready to party! Just look at all that food."
"So do I," Mac Agrees. "And would you look at that beer selection! Awesome."
Melissa raises a glass to the hostesses and guests. "Welcome to my roast. And please welcome my very special guests, Jared and Josephine."
Lyn smiles. "Ladies, it's getting hot in here!"

Just Erotic Romance Reviews
Alpha werewolf, Jared Kohl,
wakes up in a vampire’s dungeon, swearing revenge upon the wily Siamese werecat
who lured him there with her sultry lips and the sweetest tail. To escape his
undead captor, all he has to do is seduce the skittish puss and show her that
trust is often a hot and hard lesson to learn.
Enslaved feline shifter,
Josephine Young, has learned the hard way not to believe in anything or
anyone—not men, not love, and certainly not the blood-sucking mistress who
tossed her into the cage with the hungry beast she’d betrayed. But Josephine
does what she must to survive, including tempting the dominant werewolf to give
her more than promises.
Imprisoned for their blood,
Jared and Josephine fight for survival and discover a passion that neither can
walk away from. Can these two predators survive long enough to prove that cats
and dogs can be more than enemies?
Excerpt:
“Ooph.” Jared’s breath expelled from his lungs with
the sudden addition of Josephine atop his chest. The cot creaked under the
strain of their combined weight.
The curious blue-eyed cat shoved her head between
the werewolf and his book. He had been ignoring her for hours to read. It was
unacceptable. “Whatcha doing?”
“Plotting to take over the world. What the hell
does it look like I’m doing?” He closed his book.
“Don’t be surly.” She stuck the pad of her palm
against his chin and brushed his lips with her knuckles. “No one likes a grumpy
werewolf.”
“Funny, I don’t recall ever worrying about my
popularity.”
“You should.” Josephine watched as he set the book
aside. “Does Shakespeare say anything about cats?”
Beneath her, Jared contemplated in silence, his
chest rising and falling with comfortable regularity. “In Othello, he says,
‘Drown thyself? Drown cats and blind puppies.’”
“Ouch! Hey, no claws!” Jared jumped as Josephine’s
claws dug into his bare chest; he grabbed her and lifted her. His laughter
echoed through the small cell.
“Something more flattering.”
“Something more flattering.”
“Henry IV: ‘I am as vigilant as a cat to steal
cream.’” He lowered her to rest upon his chest again.
