This a funny, touching book. The way it is written in the first person is very amusing because it is just the way a woman thinks at times. I really enjoyed this book. It's a laugh out load, feel good book.

This story was unbelievably loving. Not in the serious-sobering kind of way--although the hero did love her QUITE SERIOUSLY--this story was filled with witty barbs and banter. I busted out laughing numerous times.

The characters were absolutely great! The heroine, Naomi, was absolutely inspired and so were her cousins! Royce was simply to die for. Imagine being in-love like that--that everything he did was because of her.

It was hilarious how the roles between men and women were switched between the two! This simply is a MUST READ!

A great story by Gena Showalter. Naomi is just getting over her divorce. Royce hires her to organize a party, but makes it clear that he wants more than that. Naomi doesn't want to get involved with anybody. Royce won't give up. In the background, you have Naomi's wacky cousins, and her parents. Very sweet, romantic story. Funny, with a satisfying ending. I haven't read a Gena Showalter yet that failed to deliver.

Let me start by saying that I was not sure about this book. I have read other "series" books by Gena Showalter and this was not the same thing. I really liked it. It took me by surprise after page 10. SPOILER.....

This woman is like many women taken advantage by a man and love. She finds her inner tigress. Royce is like the perfect man...You keep thinking he is too good to be true. They are a really sizzling connection....It is not a graphic as some that I have read....But still steamy...

It was a good read. Not a series...But one you can pick up and really not put down...

Animal Instincts is just another reason I love Gena Showalter, Read the book in about 8 hours. I just couldn't put it down.

I usually read her paranormals, but as romances go this one is pretty good. It has a lot of funny parts, I couldn't wait to see what Naomi and her cousins would come up with next. I would recommend this as a good book to read. Who could imagine having your own inner tigress?

I normaly don't like "romance" novels, but I really enjoyed this one. Sure some parts were hot and steamy, but the storyline was also really good. If you are hesitant about romance novels, but enjoy a good "Chic Lit" storyline, pick up this book.

Good book. I think that my expectations were too high, but it was still an enjoyable read.

This isnt your typical Gena Showalter book. No paranormal involved. Just a very well written romance book.
