Mate of the Tyger Prince
Shannon West
Diplomatic marriages between two members of different planets certainly aren’t unheard of—but for Prince Mikos of Tygeria and Col. Ryan Donnelly of Earth, it might just be a fate worse than death. The union is meant to end a devastating war that has lasted for over a hundred and fifty years, but when the female bride intended for the fierce, sexy prince runs away, her handsome brother is substituted instead. Men are for mating as far as the Tygerian prince is concerned, but the colonel also happens to be Mikos’s sworn enemy, not to mention being completely irritating.
Ryan is horrified to learn that the Tygerians not only expect him to take the place of his sister, marry the Bloody Prince of Tygeria, and go to live with him on his mysterious planet, but they also expect him to undergo physical alteration to have the man’s baby! And nobody is taking hell no for an answer. Ryan’s being asked to turn his whole life upside down and the handsome Tygerian gets under his skin like nobody else. But with the fate of the universe at stake, how can he say no? Can the two enemies put aside their differences and focus on making love and not war—not to mention a baby? As a powerful love struggles to take root, can they learn to trust each other and stand together against the forces that are trying to tear them apart?
Excerpt
“Son, are you all right? Your highness…Consort Blake, please! Put a stop to this now—my son is injured!”
“I’m fine, Father,” Ryan said, embarrassed and trying to gently push him off.
“Your son is injured?” the king’s consort said, his eyebrows lifting in outrage. “What about my son? Your son indeed!”
Then as the words sunk in, Blake suddenly straightened up and tilted his head, one eyebrow quirking upward. “Did you say your son?”
“Yes, of course he is! And your son just attacked him!” the consul said, casting a wounded, outraged look back over his shoulder.
Blake smiled then and rubbed his hands together, as eager as a cat who’d just spied a big bowl of tasty cream. “You mean to tell me this young man… Your unmarried son? Well, why didn’t you say so? Who needs the daughter? This one will do fine. In fact, he’ll do even better!” He stepped forward and laid a hand on Prince Mikos’s arm. “Stop playing with him, Miki. You’ll have plenty of time to do that after the wedding. This young man,” he said, gesturing grandly toward Ryan, “is your new mate and royal consort.” He got a speculative look in his eye. “Maybe even the bearer of your children.”

Review: Every once in a while you come across an author that not only can catch your attention with their books but keep it throughout the whole story. These books are the type that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat. Shannon West is one of those authors. Her stories not only are very entertaining but they have a world inside of them that makes you wish you were right there with them.
The characters are not only well written with a lot of depth to them, but they have you falling in love with them or wanting to shoot them. However if you cross them, they will put you down. They are very protective of their mates and their family. They will protect them with their lives if needed.
The war has been going on for quite some time and many deaths have been because of it. It is time for peace, so a diplomatic marriage has been set up. The groom is not pleased, his people pretty much prefer men yet he is set up to marry a woman. Thank god she ran while she had the chance, but her brother is about to take her place. Talk about a pissing contest between them.
Mikos is not only attracted to Ryan but he is intrigued by the man. Too bad Ryan has a major attitude. However, I think he can be forgiven considering not only does he have to have body modification done to him, but he is the one that carries the babies. He will miss his world and his life, but Mikos plans on helping him with that little detail.
Mikos and Ryan are sworn enemies so there is a lot to get over, however they will have time. The problem was Ryan considered himself completely straight, well until Miko’s kissed him.
Sounds really good! 😉
Quite a unique concept, really looking forward to reading it.
loved the excerpt!
This sounds very interesting. I like the twist on the classic enemy to loves trope. I look forward to reading this story and discovering how the characters act and evolve in this situation.
