I really, really liked Tempting His Mate, a paranormal novella by Savannah Stuart. She does such a good job of writing novellas. The plots she comes up with are the perfect length. Even though this one was written under Katie Reus' erotic pen name of Savannah Stuart name, it was not erotic.The intimate scenes were not overly detailed like you expect in erotic romance and there was more story than sex.Ella is a panther shifter that needs a change in her life and leaves her pride. Asher is a wolf who has been on his own for long enough. As each of them make their way to join the Kincaid pack (not knowing the other one), they meet and engage in a wild and crazy night. Asher thinks it is the best night of his life but Ella flees before morning.They assume it is the last time either of them will see one another. They are both quite surprised, though, when they come face to face once again. Fate has different plans for them!Savannah does a really nice job with the pace of the story and development of the characters in such a short time frame. I have read the other Crescent Moon books, but you really don't have to in order to follow along. I enjoyed the camaraderie between the male shifters in the story as well as the easy interactions between Ella and Asher as they got to know each other. It was a very enjoyable story from start to finish. If you are looking for a paranormal romance that has an entertaining story, strong characters, sweet, yet passionate love, I recommend you pick up Tempting His Mate!
