About this listen

Tammy has always tried to be prepared for any calamity life might send her way but she never imagined a sexy, lion man-beast in her future. He’s huge, got the most exotic, golden cat-eyes she’s ever seen, and she’s so terrified she’s speechless for the first time in her life. He’s stalking closer, growling at her, and she’s too terrified to even flee.

Valiant hates humans. But when he gets a whiff of the adorable human female who has invaded his territory, he starts rethinking. Her fear scents of pure, sweet temptation and the closer he gets, the more appealing she becomes. Once he’s got his hands on her, he isn’t about to let her go. One thought will change his life. MINE!

Before Tammy can regain her senses, she’s flat on her back in Valiant’s bed. Now he just has to use every inch of his big, buff body to convince her that she should stay with him forever.

Editorial reviews

The third "New Species" erotic romance by best-selling author Laurann Dohner features plot twists, golden cat-eyes, and enough passion to leave characters and listeners all breathing hard.

Vanessa Chambers gives a reading by turns steamy, suspenseful, and oh-so sexy. Tight plotting and believable characters mesh in a story of love and danger, as a woman finds herself hunted by a predator who, despite being part beast, fulfills her very human desires. He will also devote himself fully to her protection even as enemies of them both threaten.

Loved this story!

This audiobook was great listening! Tammy and Valiant’s story was interesting and sexy. Valiant is one of the New Species who isn’t as human looking as the other NS. He’s also a little antisocial and keeps to himself. Tammy meets Valiant when she accidentally goes to his house while going to cater an event at Reservation. He’s instantly possessive of her and claims her as his mate, but Tammy is not so sure and flees. When Tammy is kidnapped by some crazy Mercile employees, it’s up to Valiant to find her. Great narration!

Ummm Valiant -- What A Beast!

Okay, so Valiant is my absolute favorite New Species. Valiant is so over the top I was in stitches. This story is funny, sexy and heart warming. Valiant goes from being uber scary king of the jungle lion to cute, cuddly lap kitten -- but look out when the big cat gets needy. This book has the best and funniest sex scenes. Vanessa Chambers does an awesome job narrating.

New Species are very sexual beings so be prepared for explicit sex scenes.

I have listened to the entire series several times so definitely worth the credit.

Roar is louder than his bite

I loved this book. So far this is my favorite in the series. I don’t know if it’s because of Valiant’s vulnerability because he looks more animal than man or because even his own females are afraid of him and he desperately wants someone to love him, Valiant the man. It could be a combination of all the above but this book is indeed my favorite, so far.

Tammy accidentally walks in the wildzone and unto Valiant’s property. Valiant is furious because A. he doesn’t like humans and B. he is a mean son of a bitch but something about Tammy enchants him. Never believing he would ever find a human attractive or want to breed with one, he slowly realizes he wants Tammy. Tammy is frozen out of fear and unable to move or say anything to the man-beast that is slowly stalking near her. It wasn’t until Valiant lifted Tammy in his arms and carries her to his bedroom, that she finds her voice and bravery. But just as Valiant feels he has found someone to share his life with, Tammy leaves him with a knot on his head and an ache in his heart. It isn’t until five weeks later when Tammy is kidnapped and Valiant is asked to track her attacks that their path cross again and this time Valiant is determine to not let his Tammy get away from him, not that Tammy minds so much.

Vanessa voice isn’t the best narrator I have heard but after three books, I have become accustom to it.

Worth a credit, YES YES YES! You don’t have to read the previous two books in this series to understand this book but the books read in order offer a lot of character and world building.

Great story but Narrator makes me wince!

Any additional comments?

The stories are good but the Narrator is bad when performing voices. Her voice detracts me from the story. It's too bad she's the same narrator for all New Species books

NOT SO PERFECT BUT TOUCHING NONETHELESS !!

What did you love best about Valiant?

That he was not the perfect, well-mannered, socially adept or correct of the New Species; he held no "office" or status within the Species and was raw, primal, more animal-acting than man but his draw to and then emotions for and protectiveness of Tammy were nonetheless touching.

What other book might you compare Valiant to and why?

None

Which character – as performed by Vanessa Chambers – was your favorite?

Valiant

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Any additional comments?

This series just gets better and better.

Mine 💕

I have enjoyed each of the New Species books very much, and never think the next one can be as good as the last. So far I’ve been very wrong! It seems each book gets better. Ahh, Valiant, I loved him and his love story with Tammy. Am looking forward to what Ms. Dohner has in store for us with Justice and Jesse next!

5 Valiant Stars


I always forget how much I like Valiant until I re read his book. He is just so exotic.
We all need a man who would lay down their life for you. His whole reason to live became Tammy. And no one was more surprised over that than Valiant.

He wanted a mate, but he never expected it to be a human. Tammy wasn't looking for someone but she was quiet literally shocked by Valiant.
These two really do complement each other, she isn't afraid to stand up to him when he is being to much maleness. And he just wants to make her happy.

I loved this installment of the series and can’t wait to continue it.

Vanessa does a great job with each character, loveeeed this audio so much.

*You don't have to like my review but its 100% my opinion, and I am allowed to have it.*

Sooo good! MINE!!!

I really like the New Species series... however not all the books are on the same level...

Book 1 was great, but book 2 fell short to me. This one was awesome! I actually think this one was a bit better than book 1. Only slightly. I love the whole possessive alpha male thing...

I love they way this book started... with Valiant and others in a showdown of dominance because the human invaded his territory.. Then he grabs her up and makes her his!!! It was awesome. The whole book was pretty darn good.

Great Credit, Buy or Sale.
