Second Nature

RETURN TO CAFE PRIAPUS

Released from Red Sage in June 2008 and available on Kindle, Second Nature offers an eco-friendly twist on paranormal erotica. An amorous nature spirit with a soft spot for a misguided activist desperately tries to help her discover her true nature in time to save them both, as well as the forest they would both die to protect, by teaching her about the true nature of desire.

"Mate with me." This is the insistent demand wealthy tycoon Graham Norton makes on passionate activist Claret McDaniel. Never, "Make love to me." Never, "Let's have sex," or even a crass, "Let's do it, baby." But whenever he sees her, whenever they meet to argue over his recent land development plans to destroy her beloved forest, the only place she feels at home, Graham urges Claret, "Mate with me."

And all of Claret's attempts to remain professional and pure are slowly melting away under the persuasive gleam in his eyes. She begins to sense under his carefully groomed businessman's exterior beats an untamed heart. There's something primitive about Graham. Something mythical. Something not entirely human.

And whatever it is, she is about to find, deep within her unnatural human body ... its mate.
