Book 1 in the New Species series.
 Ellie is horrified to discover the pharmaceutical company she works for is doing illegal experiments. Company scientists have spliced human and animal DNA, creating exotic new species. One such “experiment” captures her heart and she’ll do anything to save him—even if he hates her for it.

Fury has never known compassion or love. He’s spent his life in a cell, chained and abused by humans. The one woman he allowed himself to trust betrayed him. Now he’s free and set on vengeance. He vows to end her life but when she’s finally in his grasp, harming her is the last thing he wants to do to the sexy little human.

Fury can’t resist Ellie—the touch of her hands, her mouth on his skin, her body wrapped around his. He’s obsessed with the scent of his woman. And Ellie wants Fury—always has. She craves his big, powerful body and wants to heal his desolate heart.

But loving Fury is one thing…taming him is another.

Reader Advisory: This story contains the heartrending aftermath of a rape scene involving a captive male. Another scene involves capture and forced touching by a hurt, vengeful Fury. 





A bit more about me...
    I had a rather short area here telling a little about myself but then I had more than a few people ask me to expand it so... here goes. LOL. I'm a full time home 'supervisor' which is a nice word for saying I'm a housewife. I'm happily married, I met my dream guy in 1989, and we have 4 children. I live in Nevada and I can't function without iced coffee. I believe in romance, I've always been a daydreamer, and I'm a HUGE fan of books - always have been.
     No, I didn't know that I always wanted to write. I inhaled books as a child. I read entire series (Pippi Longstocking, Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys, Trixie Beldon, The Borrowers, etc) in a matter of days. By the time I turned nine years old I had an adult library card where I visited often. I moved on to John Saul, Stephen King, Richard Laymon, Agatha Christie, and then found romance. I got hooked. I wrote poetry in my teens and then moved on to short stories. I started to write my first book after I read a real bomb of one that ticked me off with really horrible characters and a plot that was shabby at best. I thought...I could do better
     I wrote my first book which will probably never see the light of day in the early 90's. I wrote a series of  books from it. I'm a series fan! I kept writing for fun, wrote MANY books and then in 2009 I decided to attempt to get published. I wrote my first Sci Fi romance and Ral's Woman came to be. I submitted it and with a little tweaking, Ellorascave sent me an acceptance letter. It was kind of a 'Cinderella' experience for me. It's been a terrific ride so far and I'm really happy. It's a dream come true.




Favorite Quotes

“What kind of adverse  affects? Penis envy?” Slade chuckled. “I’ve been to the men’s room with humans, Doc. The only thing your women should be afraid of is realizing how small your men’s dicks are compared to ours.”  Trisha Norbit shot Slade a dirty look. “You’re a pig.” Slade’s smile died and a low growl issued from his throat. “I’m canine, not pig.”  “It’s a slang term, not a species call,” Ellie managed to say without laughing. “She thinks what you said is dirty and offensive.”  Slade nodded at Ellie before he grinned at the doctor. “But honest.”

“You can’t go around making decisions for me and you know we’re supposed to hide that we’re a couple.”  “You are really turning me on right now. You’re breathing hard and if you don’t watch it, your breasts are going to break the buttons on that shirt.” His gaze riveted to her chest. “Breathe harder. Please?”
His lips twitched and he gave her a slight smile. “Look on the bright side. We don’t have to hide our relationship anymore.”  She snorted. “Yeah. They had it on the news. I guess I should probably call my family soon before they hear about it and freak out.” His smile died. “What if they are upset about you being with me?” His gaze searched hers. “Will you leave me?”  Ellie hugged him tighter. “Never. I swear. I don’t care what they think.” He couldn’t hide his relief. “I checked something out.”  “What?”  He hesitated. “Have I told you that I love you?”  Ellie’s heart soared. “No. You haven’t. Are you telling me now?” His lips twitched before he spoke and amusement sparked his gaze. “That depends.  Do you love me?”  Ellie laughed and nodded. “I do.”
“I love you, sweetness.”  “I love you too.” Tears blinded her until she blinked them away. “I’ve loved you for a while but I refrained from telling you.”  “Why?”  She shrugged. “I guess I was being stupid. Human guys tend to flinch a little when a woman declares she’s fallen in love quickly.”  His eyebrows arched. “I’m not one of them, not fully, and I’m filled with joy that you love me. Never say you are stupid again. You’re cautious because you have been hurt by a man in your past. That will never happen with us because this time you chose well.” A smile curved his lips, a teasing sparkle in his beautiful eyes.




I am writing a going to be writing a review on each book in the New Species series. This book is the first and I will be doing every book, one book a day until the new book comes out “True” it will be out on December 11th. If you haven’t read any of this series by Laurann Dohner you need to.  She is an excellent writer and takes each book to a different level. 

The first book in this series is Fury. Fury is a New Species.  He has is a sex, hot, exotic. This company of scientists created these New Species by splicing human and animal DNA together in hopes to help find a cure for diseases or at least try to find a way to fight the diseases better but what they did was worse. The keep them chained, naked, and forced them to do things that no one ever would want to happen to them. Fury has been chained most of his life except for when they wanted to do tests on him.  He was a species that the only thing he ever knew was abuse, anger, and hatred.  He wanted to be free and to free his rest of his own kind.  He has never known kindness, compassion, or love. That is until he meets Ellie.
Ellie is a woman who is placed in the company to be a spy. As a spy her job was to get information out so they could free the New Species. What she never expected was to walk in a room while on break and look through a two-way mirror. What she sees makes her angry and wants more than anything to free the New Species as quickly as possible. She gets Fury(aka 416) to trust her and she shows him that there are humans that can be kind and loving but to protect him and to keep him alive she will whatever it takes until help arrives. So when she sees someone abusing him she defends him and in doing so she has to betray him. Fury vows revenge if he ever sees her again.
Will Ellie’s betrayal destroy his attraction for her? Or will the attraction they both feel for each other win out? Can Ellie tame the animal in him?
As I said before Laurann Dohner is an excellent writer. It makes me want a New Species of my own. From beginning to end the story flows and keeps you one the end of your seat. I didn’t want to put the book down. Oh man I know each book will get better and better.  If you haven’t read any of her books you need to…
