Shape-shifting Sentinel agent Antoine Fortescue has no qualms about his sexual preference. He uses the misconception of those around him to lure them into what could be a fatal mistake. While Antoine isn’t physically a weakling, his desire for Jack Hunter is his one true weak spot. Jack is his khalid, his mate, and it’s time the tiger had his due.
Jack has a tight rein on his desires; desires that seem to surface around Antoine, regardless of his attempts to control them. An ancient evil has come back, leaving carnage in its wake. The new threat leads Jack to the one place he has tried to avoid, into the presence of the one man who can tear down his resistance, Antoine.

The Tiger Within is a story that reminds us you cannot always choose the one you love. Jack is a former soldier with firm ideas of what homosexuality means and why he shouldn’t allow his attraction to progress. Antoine is too old to not accept his true nature and unwilling to go without his mate. The chemistry is fierce and enticing. For some reason seeing Jack’s defenses systematically torn down gave me a great deal of respect for Antoine. He didn’t want any delusion on why Jack participated in their acts. Viki Lyn places the men in a setting that is both beautiful and haunting at times. The story has a fast tempo that never slows. There is just enough action and suspense to keep you on your toes. If you enjoy handsome shape-shifters trying to persuade a reluctant mate, then The Tiger Within is the book for you.
