I honestly couldn’t wait to read the next book that I picked up from Amazon for FREE!  “Breeding Cycle,” by T. A. Grey is the first book in her series named The Kategan Alpha’s.  Following in the footsteps of “Take Me,” this is going to be listed in the category of Erotica, Fantasy, and Paranormal.After being breathless with the book “Take Me,” I couldn’t wait to see how “Breeding Cycle” would go.  In this book, we are now dealing with lykaen’s.  The story actually starts off with a rather vivid and explicit dream sequence.  At first, I wasn’t sure if this was going to be a book that I would be continuing with.  Once I discovered it was a dream, I was tempted to try the second chapter, at least.In “Breeding Cycle,” we are introduced to Princess Sarina Brunes.  She has been locked up in her father’s house due to her going through her breeding cycle.  Not wanting jeopardize her mating with another male until an acceptable mate is located, Sarina has become like a prisoner in her own home.Knowing that she could attract the attention of even his guards, her father King Brunes sends her to their remote cabin to be locked away and unguarded.  Left to suffer through the horrendous affects of her breeding cycle, Sarina is forced to take matter into her own hands.  (Literally!)In the same vicinity as Princess Brunes’ cabin, Alpha Vane Kategan is roaming the forest.  A scent that he isn’t familiar with draws him up to this unknown cabin.  Being cautious, curious and aroused, he follows his nose to the location and is shocked by what he finds.Knowing that he taking a risk, he peeps in the window and watches the most amazing thing unfold before his eyes.  Not able to back away, he can’t resist staying and witnessing everything.  It’s not until a nose is made that Sarina looks to see what is going on outside.  To her shock, she discovers this hunk of a man on her porch.  Was he watching what she was doing?  This could be embarrassing!Because of the emitting a scent that is just undeniably the most delicate and possessive scent he has every inhaled, Vane can’t control himself.  He knows that he has to have this woman for himself.  He takes it upon himself to protect this woman who shouldn’t be left alone in the forest unguarded.  He also understands what she is going through and feels he is the only one that can help her through her ordeal.In the meantime, Sarina’s father is doing the unthinkable.  He’s arranging a marriage to the Prince Conlin.  He has a reputation of being cruel, abusive and demeaning to women.  He’s already Sarina’s best friend Alison to a pulp a while back.  She and Vane can’t even fathom why her father would be willing to subject his only daughter to this kind of evil.  So, it’s up to Vane to see that this will never happen.*****I know I said I wouldn’t read erotica.  I have even gone back and corrected my review policy and removed this genre.  I have read a few erotica, but they were always more along the line of hardcore porn than anything.  However, T. A. Grey has tastefully written a book that just oozes sex and excitement, but done to where you won’t feel like you just read a smut book.The love story of Vane and Sarina can hold its own without the sex.  However, the sex just makes you want to stay up all night and finish the story.  Being one with an active imagination, I found that this was so well written, that I was able to see in my mind what was going on, but not ashamed.I will be reading more if not all of T. A. Grey’s books just because they are that good.  There are very few authors that I will find that I’m willing to read everything that they have penned.  This is one that has basically taken my breath away and begging for more.
