When the ‘animal disease’ spreads from Terra to Earth, the Hunters are established on Earth, as well, and Lilith’s father is commander of Earth’s Hunters … reason enough for Lilith, a Hunter herself, to ignore the magnetic pull of the alpha male determined to have her for his mate.

But Lilith isn’t quite human herself—not since she was attacked by werewolves—and she’s always had a ‘thing’ for tall, dark, and creepy.

Tiger by the Tail by Kaye Chambers

From exile to queen-whom can she trust?

An On the Prowl story.

Alexandra “Sasha” DeStephano has long been exiled from her own kind, thanks to parents who had no wish for her to grow up in the “tiger mafia”. Now that she’s been issued an engraved invitation to appear before the society elders, she finds herself plunged into a dangerous battle for power, urged on every side to give up her birthright to make room for a new regime.

On every side, that is, except Colton Reyes, a rogue alpha. Cole plants the idea in her mind that, under the current leadership, the tiger society is headed down a one-way street to disaster. And she is their only hope.

Spurred on by a man who flips all her sexual switches, Sasha steps up to the plate-and finds herself promoted from Tiger Princess to Queen. The resulting consequences are far more than she ever imagined.

In this game of danger and intrigue, almost no one can be trusted. Cole’s best chance to protect her? Pretend to claim her as his mate.

Except pretending is the last thing on Sasha’s mind.

What inspired you to write this book?
I started this book when my family was driving down I-75 to Disney World. It was dawn (vise sunset in the book) and a Paint horse was running up the pasture intent on his breakfast. The random voice filtered through my mind that said, “Tigers like white. It makes them easy to hunt in the dark.” Snatching up my laptop, I pounded out the first 1500 words or so before the children woke up and wanted their own breakfast. The opening is the same, but the last 700 words or so was cut. After shelving it for a bit, I kept thinking of that voice until I finally sat down and outlined it. It was just too strong of a character to let lie, so I sat down and finished it.

“Tiger by the Tail is a little jewel of an urban fantasy about tiger shifters. It’s totally entertaining, steamy, intriguing and these characters made me sit up and take notice!” – Patrice, The Romance Studio
