Thrill of the Chase — Ashlyn Chase

Being Randy A coyote howling from a hilltop is struck by lightning. He shifted into his human form to survive, but sadly can't change back. Unprepared for life as a man, he walks naked into civilization to find food, shelter and discrimination! Sky, a nurse in Arizona, meets Randy in the psychiatric ward. Where else would an under-socialized naked man who claims to be a coyote wind up? Sky's Apache ancestry knows he's telling the truth and she breaks him out of the hospital. But what do you do with a charming coyote stuck in a randy man suit? ___ Demolishing Mr. Perfect Even though she's a nurse in a sperm bank, meeting young, virile professionals every day, Natalie Watson's relationships always seem to suffer from "stress fractures". With a hopeless prognosis, she seeks metaphysical help. The tea leaf reader tells her there's a perfect man for her, but she might have to change her definition of perfect. Shane (Crusher) Derby takes out his aggressions all day by blowing up buildings and smashing the contents. He couldn't be mellower until the nurse in the adjacent building tells him to keep it down. Her sperm donors are jumping and missing their cups. And he has the nerve to think it's funny. ___ Dear Sexy Lexie No-nonsense Lexie Burns pens an advice column -- Letters to Sexy Lexie -- that delivers common sense with humor and a verbal slap upside the head. Tyler Black, a younger, drop-dead gorgeous cop, has had it with empty-headed, superficial women. In Lexie, he sees the kind of intelligent woman with whom he could build a solid relationship -- if he can convince her to acknowledge his existence. With the help of some magical stilettos, Tyler might get his woman…and Lexie might get a desperately needed slap upside the libido.
