Summary: Puuuuurrrrrr
Comment: I found this book really fun and sexy. It was much more "animal" and the plot was deifferent from the previous "Other" books, which was nice.

Summary: A fast and fun read.
Comment: 4.5 Stars.
Christine Warren is one of those authors who consistently produce top quality books. And Walk on the Wild Side book five of The Others series is no exception. This book is more of a stand alone read, it still takes place in the world of the others, but with completely different characters. This doesn't detract from the story at all, but is important to know for some people who may be expecting something different...
This book is filled with some of the most interesting characters that I've read about in a long time. The villains are truly evil & hateful and you'll quickly find yourself wishing for them to get their just deserts...
After being involved in a near fatal accident Kitty Sugarman finds out that for the last 24 years everything that she knew about herself is in fact a lie. And instead of being a nice ordinary small-town girl she is in fact a were-lion. Kitty does have a few TSTL (to stupid to live tendencies) some of which may be due to her youth and inexperience. But in spite of that she makes a good likable and engaging female lead...
The male lead, Marcus Stewart is truly the ultimate alpha male. His character is extremely likable, Strong and sexy but at the same time never over-bearing...

Summary: A good shapeshifter "Others" story.
Comment: Christine Warren started writing about the "Others" for Ellora's Cave as a download online book. They became popular and now she is found everywhere and it couldn't happen to a better author. Her creation of a hidden group of creatures such as demons, vampires, werewolf's, fairies, witches, etc is both romantic as well as steamy hot.
For centuries the "Others" have kept their existence a secret but recently have through secret talks with the government made themselves known to the public.
In this story "Kitty" and I kid you not that is her name finds out she is a lion shapeshifter other due to the DNA her long gone father left behind. Her father contacts her about the same time she finds out about her furry side and makes arrangements to go meet him in Las Vegas to tell him off and to find out more about being a shapeshifter. Such as how do you shift back? Keep from hurting your loved ones? etc.
Her Father turns out to be the dying Alpha head of the Las Vegas Red Rock Pack. His heir is a hot lion shapeshifter who takes Kitty under his wing as well as under his body. They are destined to be mates but someone is trying to kill her and he has to find out who.
A steamy good read. I look forward to her next installment in the series.

Summary: Add to "Must Read" list
Comment: The Others series has been a lot of fun from the get-go. Of all the books, however, this one reeled me in. Our girl Kitty, contrary to the gist of the story summary, is not a wishy washy drama queen. She's a dame with a great sense of humor, intelligence and a brass set of her own. And Max? He's worthy. It's a funny, solid read with enough "wow sex" to keep the party going. I'm not easily pleased, but this one did it for me.

Summary: terrific paranormal romantic suspense thriller
Comment: In Tennessee while driving home with her mom Misty, their truck crashes. Misty is unconscious, but Kitty Jane Sugarman manages to get both of them clear of the vehicle. However, they need help desperately, but on the back roads no one is in sight. Somehow while in severe pain, Kitty Jane for the first time in her life shifts her body; she now knows her father is an Other, a lion shapeshifter.
The Felix of the Red Rock Leos, Martin Lowe is dying from cancer. He wants to meet his daughter before he dies. He sends his trusted aide Marcus "Max" Stuart to arrange for his meeting Kitty. Max goes to Vegas to meet Kitty at the airport. He is stunned to find an innocent twenty-four years old instead of the hardened easterner that he expected. However, many in the Pride want Max and Kitty out of the way so the can replace Martin and inherit his wealth; none expected the strong loving bond between the number two Leo and the daughter of the Felix.
The latest Others' supernatural romance is a strong tale starring a solid cast who make believers that shapeshifters exist. Kitty and Max are a wonderful coupling as they fight, fuss, and purr in love. However, the star is Kitty who had no inkling of her paternal DNA until the accident, but whose steel magnolia personality comes in handy as she deals with her dad's pride, a totally new side of the family; with at least one or more wanting her either frightened back to backwoods Tennessee or dead. Fans will enjoy the war between love and avarice as Christine Warren provides another terrific paranormal romantic suspense thriller.

In national bestseller Christine Warren’s Others novels, vampires, witches, werewolves, and more have come out of the supernatural closet. Now, the world as we know it will never be the same... Kitty Sugarman is a lot tougher than her name implies. Still, she’s content with how her small- town life keeps her removed from all the changes happening in the world—like the Unveiling of the Others. That is, until a near-tragedy strikes and Kitty discovers she has abilities . . .thanks to a father she never knew was alive. He also happens to be a were-lion and leader of one of the most powerful Prides out West. WALK ON THE WILD SIDE When Kitty heads to Vegas to find out more about her father, it’s his sexy, seductive second-in-command or baas of the Pride, Marcus Stewart, who commands her attention. Now that she has tempted Marcus’s hunger for a mate, Kitty finds herself stuck in a vicious struggle for her father’s fortune, while deadly unrest stirs within the pride. Kitty’s rivals won’t rest until she’s gone for good, but Marcus will fight until his last breath to save her…even if it means going against the pride. “Warren brings fascinating alternate realities to life.” —Romantic Times BOOKreviews
