Review by Tiger LilyCelebrated photographer, Sheridan West, arrives on the island of St. Lucia to shoot the wedding of billionaire tycoon, Simon Des Marets, to stunning socialite, Cecily Towne. Weddings aren’t usually her thing, especially celebrity weddings, but a disturbing series of mountain lion attacks in the hills near her LA home, a secret fear she may be involved, and the persuasion of the groom’s charming brother, Marc, make a trip to the island of her dreams more than she can pass up.
In the days leading up to the big event, Sheridan finds herself irresistibly attracted to the brooding Simon, too. Sheridan succumbs to the charms of the oh-so-sexy Marc, her desperate worry forgotten in the isolated paradise, even as the relationship between Simon and the duplicitous Cecily unravels.
A full, tropical moon. The gentle wash of the dark, Caribbean surf. Two beautiful men—one determined to possess her completely, the other equally determined to remain aloof. The three face a common destiny predetermined by the past. That destiny’s resolution must save them all from specters of a bygone era and a bloody predator tracking Sheridan.
Sometimes who we are and who we want to be are different things or in this case, different species. Intrigued? Read Tropic of Desire and find out more.

I liked the way she wove the shifter theme in with the family curse and how easily history can repeat itself. The antagonists were evil, yet likeable enough through the story that they weren’t obvious. I also liked the atmosphere Ms. Pearce created. You could almost feel the sticky heat of the island and the slap of the wide leaves of the trees.
The heroine, Sheridan West struck me as odd to start with because she seemed almost aloof with Marc Des Marets, her potential client, yet when they have private time – the sparks fly! The shift is good and hot! You want to see Sheridan get her man of her dreams. I liked the tension between her and Marc’s twin Simon. Two men were so similar, yet so different at the same time and very intriguing. I liked the curse and the means by which to extinguish it. The story kept me on the edge of my seat until the last page because of the crafty way that the author wove the plot.
If you want a steamy novella for a cool summer night, then you want to read Tropic of Desire. I give this novella 4 cherries.
