"Touching Paradise" [Shark Shifter Series, Book 1] by Cleo Peitsche
Author's Book Description : "TOUCHING PARADISE" (Shark Shifter #1) is an erotic romance of 41,000 words.
Despite his billions in the bank, Koenraad is a shark shapeshifter haunted by secrets and regrets. Unable to move on with his life, he relentlessly patrols the waters near the island he once considered home. Fate puts the beautiful Monroe in his path, and duty demands he offer his services, but one look into her eyes and he knows the lonely, frightened woman secretly yearns for adventure.
Monroe is having a hard time getting into the vacation spirit. She’s surrounded by powdery white sand and swaying palm trees, but she’s terrified of the ocean. When her tour boat breaks down at sea, she’s thrilled to skip the so-called trip of a lifetime. However, a gorgeous man with a sleek yacht is determined to change her mind... and maybe her life.
My Book Review : 5 out of 5 stars!!! While on vacation on a remote island for a friend's wedding Monroe meets a mysterious bachelor who changes her world and life in unexpected ways!
Intensely hot with intriguing twists, I could not put this novella down! I ended up reading it in 3-4 hours! Koenraad & Monroe are an unusual pair that will be interesting to see where their relationship will take them. In addition, I'm curious to find out more about Koenraad's son, since much is alluded about him throughout this novella.
I love the shifter dynamic and Koenraad definitely sold it for me. I hope Monroe will stay as accepting as she was in this novella about his abilities throughout the series. I say that because even though I expect drama to come into their lives I really don't think I'd enjoy reading about anything or anyone permanently coming between them for a while.
I highly recommend this novella and series to those who like paranormal erotic romances!!
-- On a side note --
It reminded me a little of Ms. Arend's Pacific Passion Series.

"Thank you for being a dork."
Her smile almost turned genuine. "You were right, again," she said. "I would have kicked myself later."
"That's twice in one day."
"Don't let it go to your head."
