Bengal's Heart by Lora Leigh


I could not wait for this book to come out after reading Tanner’s Scheme (see my other review). Did I think the book was good? Yes. Was it as good as I thought it would be? No.

Synopsis (from barnesandnoble.com): Reporter Cassa Hawkins has always supported Breed rights—especially in light of a specimen like Cabal St. Laurents, the epitome of the male animal. But when the Breeds are incriminated in a series of violent murders, it's left to Cassa and Cabal to discover the truth before they become prey.

While this book was good I could not help but feel a little let down. I did not like that there was tension between Cabal and Cassa in terms of their past. That was already done in Tanner’s Scheme. Their story was sizzling but not anything new. I was hoping for a fresh perspective in this romance. I mean come on- Cabal was a notorious playboy- he and Tanner used to share their women. Yet he seemed toned down in this book. I just wanted Cabal to be more. Would I recommend this book? Yes. Even despite the romance flaws the story was really good and complicated. I am really hoping Jonas will get his story next! Or maybe Dog. Either way I hope Lora Leigh comes at the next book with a new angle. The conflicted past stories have been done to death.

Although if nothing else the cover design is very nice.
