Publisher's summary

Dr. Trisha Norbit is flat on her back in a hospital bed, pinned under a really big New Species male. Though drugged out of his mind, he promises her ecstasy and is determined to deliver - but hospital staff intervenes. 215 is a man Trisha will never forget. But, when she meets him again at Homeland... he doesn’t even remember her!

The nosy new doctor wants to know all about the breeding habits between humans and Species. Slade proposes a hands-on education but she’s not interested in a one-night stand. He can’t offer more because he’s haunted by the memory of a woman he once tried to claim. He’s shocked when he realizes they are one and the same. He's blown it - she’ll never give him a chance now.

But, when her life is in danger, he’s the only one who can save her. As they flee through the wilderness, their desire ignites and cannot be denied. Hot sex, on the run, has consequences that are even more dangerous and will change their lives forever.

Reader Advisory: There is a scene of an attempted rape.

Editorial reviews

This "New Species" erotic romance by best-selling author Laurann Dohner features Trisha Norbit, a self-assured, smart-beyond-her-years doctor. Aroused to the brink by a patient whose life she saves, she changes the entire course of her life as a victim of her own lust only to survive life-on-the-run as the object of love for a wayward pharmaceutical company’s experiment that resulted in someone mostly man, but part animal as well. Vanessa Chambers, by turns stern, humorous, and passionate, narrates a tale of yearning for the "forbidden fruit" that once ignited is almost impossible to contain.

Love the New Species series

Any additional comments?

I love the New Species series. I was very happy when I saw they were coming to Audible. I just wish they had used a better narrator. She's okay on the female characters, but not so much on the male ones.

Same Plot but entertaining

I love listening to these books; however, I agree that it’s the same plot as the other books. Lots of hilarious parts in book that made me laugh. Would be nice to have more variety in remaining books in this series.

Narrator is okay but not one of my favourites

Narrator is okay but not one of my favourites as the characters do not sound like I have envisioned. Her voices all seem similar and not deep and gruff like I think they do. There is also a name mistake in the last chapter. The narrator says Breeze instead of Brass. Slade’s stupidity really does come across more in audible. I really loved the humour between Trisha and Brass, Moon and Harley, so fun. BOOK REVIEW My review is no longer a verified one as I have the older published version of this book. Boy hasn’t Slade made of mess of the situation with Dr Trisha, and not just once. Dr Trisha Norbit first meets Slade when he is bought into a public hospital injured after being saved from Mercile Industries during the raids. A year later Trisha is working for the New Species at Homeland as the resident doctor. Trouble is Slade does not remember her as that doctor due to her different hair colour. Slade just keeps getting it wrong even after saving Trisha’s life when they are attacked by idiot human hunters and stranded in the wilds. What follows is a very good read in this crazy new world Ms Dohner has created. The way these New Species appreciate every little thing around them after being raised in cells, labs and the abuse they have suffered, just makes me want to hug them all. I have reread these books numerous times and still love them completely each and every time I read one. I have reviewed them previously but there has been a problem with reviews disappearing. I understand how important reviews are for authors and as it is no hardship to read them once again, I am writing reviews as I work through the series.

Story steasl the show narration comes in second

OH MY . . . I want so much more than is contained within these pages. Dohner most certainly delivers and leaves one wanting. Slade and Dr. Trisha have an adventurous meeting and then find their mutual attraction again after circumstance brings them back together again. This one a ride on the side of danger, fear, loss, and more danger.

I revisit this series a few times a year. Fury is still my favorite.

Love Slade

Great series. Wonderful characters, but Trisha complained and argued way too much. She was very annoying thru most of the story. That is the reason for the 4 stars. The story was great. Narrator was good, but Moon tended to have a feminine voice at times. The series could really use a male narrator, because these are alpha males that need a deep voice.

Enjoyable with a Twist

I like this series. It is not amazing but an overall enjoyable listen. There is action, romance and just enough to keep you hooked for the next book. I really like that there are a few characters in each book that keep coming back. The concept of the book is also good. Slade was a great character and I loved when he called Trisha “Doc”. I don’t want to give away what happens but it is good and will keep this series going in a unique direction. Also in this book the author gives you a little more background into the labs and how they tortured new species. Overall a good listen. I will continue on with the series as I think that there is room for more twists. I also want to find out what happens to Valiant and Trisha.
