For June’s mature/adult book club, we have chosen Tempting The Beast, Feline Breeds, Book 1 by Lora Leigh – another steaming hot book to discuss.

From Amazon.com
Book 1 in the Feline Breeds seriesCallan Lyons is a genetic experiment, one of six fighting for freedom and the survival of their Pride. Merinus Tyler is the reporter who will tempt him, draw him, until the fury of the “mating frenzy” locks them into a battle of sexual heat they cannot escape.The evil Genetics Council is hot on their trail. Leaving a trail of their own of deception and blood. Callan will use his strength to try to save them both…and do all in his power to keep his woman in the process.

Due to content the mature book club discussion will be held on our forum. When you join our forum, please put in your age (if you are over 18) and you will see a Mature section only visible to age 18+ – that is where our mature book club will take place.

If you have participated in our other book clubs you will notice that we do a summary, characters involved, places, memorable quotes and discussion questions. For the mature/adult book club we will be doing it a bit differently. We will suggest you read chapters 1-X and come to the forum to discuss what you’ve read. We will come up with discussion questions and we need your participation. We’d like to see YOU help us come up with an A-Z list, memorable quotes, casting couch (our dream cast for the parts from the book), soundtrack etc….the mature/adult book club hinges on your participation.

Grab your copy of Tempting the Beast and join our forum, here. We are excited to discuss the book with you!
