  Chapter One

  I’ve never won anything in my life. But today I won a first class ticket to paradise. Who knew curvy girls could have such luck, huh? Honestly, I can't remember the last time I travelled anywhere. And as a girl in her thirty-something or others... you start to give up on the dream of having a whirl-wind life. But today, I'm making my dreams come true again.

  I drove myself nuts trying to wrap my brain about what to pack! Okay, it's not like I have some giiiiannnttt wardrobe, but since I've gained a few or more pounds from my job—lots of stuff just wouldn't fit right or at all.

  My shapely body isn't exactly bikini ready—unless that means dimples and jiggly thighs...

  I'm a little bit of a plain Jane. Okay...I'm boring. I play it safe. I mean geez, I don't even rip the tags off of the mattress. I'm a librarian by day and a homebody at night. The entire staff held a raffle, and I put my name in it that morning not thinking much—but I won. All my life, I’ve been holding on to this list of all the crazy things I want to do. Maybe this is my chance to be a little naughty.

  Okay, maybe not that naughty but you never know.

  The thing though is, I've never been to this place.

  What's it called?

  Oh, right. Bayside.

  I slid up the shade on my airplane window, and a wave of bright sunlight blinded my eyes. Bayside just seemed like the sunniest place in the world. I squinted, seeing the endless steely blue waves of crystal clear water. When I won the contest, the email told me that I had to look for a sign held by the hotel driver. I’ve never been in the back of a limo. Let alone chauffeured. When the plane landed, my curvy ass had to shuffle through those narrow aisles.

  I sweat puddles. I forced my way through a throng of people and got lost in the terminal before I finally found my way to baggage claim. I wiped my very moist forehead with the back of my hand. Strings of my hair stuck to my face. Out of the corner of my eyes, I saw two very tall and very tantalizing looking men holding a sign with my name on it.

  JENNIFER MASON.

  Crap on a craker! God, I've got big oval pit stains. And I panic, feeling my body go numb from worry. If they see me, they'll think I look gross and disgusting.

  Just relax, Jenny. I told myself, trying not to hyperventilate after seeing the mysterious men’s charming—yet toothy—smiles. Just one foot in front the other. Just one foot...

  And before I know it, my two left feet trip me up and...

  THUD!

  "Hey, don't worry. These floors are pretty slick," A low dark voice chuckled in my ear. “Wow, you look even hotter than your profile picture.”

  I looked up and my body goes molten. One of the Hunter brothers grabbed my arm while the other carried my luggage. Profile picture, huh?

  Accidentally, I leapt up into his chest. My face flushes red and I tuck some hair behind my ear, like some love-strung school girl.

  “Are you guys my ride to the hotel?”

  "Uh, yeah. Name's Kai. The boring one—over there..." Kai pointed to his brother. "Well, that's Logan."

  Kai Hunter had a sturdy firm grip, broad shoulders and a massive size. His biceps flexed underneath his loose linen shirt. My heart stopped when he lifted his Ray Bans from his eyes and slides it back through his thick dirty blonde hair. He had these eye-catching wild bronze-copper eyes.

  "Ignore him, he's good at turning up the charm...." Logan Hunter warned with an equally lethal sexy stare. “How was your trip? I bet you’re feeling a little awkward about the whole mating thing later tonight...”

  I just nodded dreamily... wait, mating?

  "Where am I staying?" I croaked still taken with how brawny and well-built these brothers were.

  Logan nodded. "You're booked at the The Olde Habour Inn. It's ran by pair of brothers from our clan—good guys."

  Clan? I squinted.

  That's doesn't sound right. Don't over think, Jenny. Just have a good time.

  "You cool with meeting up with some of our crew later?" Kai asked with that sun-bronzed surfer voice.

  I gulped. "Yeah."

  Being around them both made me feel like I was thirteen years old again. As Logan shoved my luggage in the back of the taxi, Kai leaned in deathly close to me. I gazed dumbfounded at his tense eyes. Kai stared at me too with a craving lick of the corner of his mouth.

  "There's one catch, where we're going you need to dress up a bit. No worries. By the looks of it, you'd fill out a dress very nicely..."

  Having been out of the dating game for a while, I was dazed.

  Wait, is this hunk actually hitting on me?

  My throat constricted with total and utter disbelief. Kai moved back and smiled before ducking low into the car.

  Logan shouted. "Everything's packed up. Let's get outta here."

  *

  I wore the only dressy outfit I brought—a pair of bedazzled hip-hugging jeans. Which wasn't really dressy at all. More low-scale casual. But the reason I don't buy the fancier stuff is because—well, no one's looking at me. Most of the time I'm roaming aisles of the library with my nose in a good book. Sorta got a real bad weakness for shameless steamy romance...

  "Ah! There she is," Logan announced with a smile stretching across his face. He advanced towards me with a rapid pace. So, fast that my heart hammered in my chest.

  A bunch of extremely attractive people stood around. It was hard not to notice. Are All of these people here for me? This was a much bigger welcoming than I thought.

  Kai urged me to speak to the crowd, guiding me by the small of my back. When we stopped, he encircled me in his deliciously tattooed arms. I don’t know what it was. His cologne. His hair gel Or, his musk. But something about Kai Hunter made me struggle to breathe.

  "Say a little something, Jenny." I stumbled up to the microphone.

  "Uh-hey, my name is Jenny Mason. And I just wanted to say that this is a dream come true."

  The crowd standing on the beach applauded. That's when Kai and Logan surprised me, when they stepped up to my sides.

  "Tonight is a special night for our weretiger clan. Tonight we have chosen a mate—"

  Mate? weretiger? Wuh?

  Kai continued. "—who will choose one of us to breed strong healthy cubs. She’s a mail order bride from CurvyStripes.com"

  I raised my eyebrow totally bewildered.

  No. No. No. This isn't what I signed up for at all...

  "As the two Alphas of the Hunter clan, Logan and I will battle to claim Jenny as our mate, bride and our pleasing lover."

  The crowd applauded even louder a
nd my body went completely rigid. "Wait!" I tried to shout over the crowd.

  What the HELL have I gotten myself into?!

  Chapter Two

  After his speech, I grabbed tightly on to Kai's shirt, popping one of his buttons. Kai then leaned down to me. And I’m not sure, but I think he sniffed my hair...

  "Everything okay?" he asked cocking his head. He had an earthy cologne, that made being close to him almost addictive.

  "No, no, no, I think you don’t understand. I won a raffle at the Library. I’m not the girl you think I am."

  “You’re fine,” Kai shrugged his broad shoulders. “Just because we’re two alphas who ordered you off the internet, doesn’t mean we won’t woo you—you’ll see.”

  That’s not what worried me at all. My mind raced at the thought of having to lie to the Hunters, but if I told them who I really was? Would they just eat me alive?

  Logan eased between Kai and me and wrapped his heavily muscled arm around my waist. Both of the brothers led me around like they owned me. Like they wanted to mark their territory.

  “I think I got this, bro. Let me take Jenny off of your hands...” Logan bellowed with a dark animalistic tone.

  Maybe I can just make a run for it. I pondered.

  All I kept thinking to myself is... Fat girls don't run.

  “How long do I have to decide between you two?” I asked, swallowing hard.

  “You have a week. Most mated pairs happen much faster, but we thought we’d take things slowly,” Logan replied.

  Only seven days?

  Seven days was just as long as my winning vacation. Perhaps if I stick it out, I can get through this craziness, and skip off the island with no one the wiser. Maybe I should just sit tight and see how this whole mail order bride fiasco plays out.

  “You will spend the day with me, I’ll show you our clan’s favorite fishing spot,” Logan stood rigid and serious. “You can trust, that if you choose me as your mate, you will never go hungry.”

  Well, that’s definitely at least worth some consideration. I thought.

  Jenny, remember these two men—as luscious as they are—are wild feral predators.

  “When you’re ready to have some real fun...you’ll know where to find me, ” Kai joked, crossing his tattooed arms.

  *

  Everything’s wet.

  I thought as I slipped my flip flops off of my feet.

  “So, what made you decide to find a... uh ‘mate’ online?” I asked treading carefully over the rocky path as I followed Logan.

  “While I cannot speak on the behalf of my brother, I just did not think the tigresses in our clan were ready to settle down and breed.”

  “What about you?” he grunted.

  I pointed at myself. “You mean, why did I make a dating profile on Curvystripes.com?”

  Logan tensely nodded.

  “Well... well...” Think, Jenny. Think! “The options for humans like me, aren’t much to write home about either...” I mumbled, trying not to allow my eyes to scan his body one more time.

  Logan furrowed his brow. “Like you?”

  “You know...big girls.”

  Logan arched his brow. "Believe me you look delicious, and I wouldn't mind getting a bite out of that..." he stopped. "What I mean is, there’s nothing sexier than a woman who’s likes to finish her plate. Especially, if she gnaws on the bone... so hot.”

  “Uh, yeah...”

  Then Logan stopped at a small clearing and pushed back some overgrown leaves. He waved me over.

  “Check this out.”

  He led me to the bluffs. A raging stream cut through where we stood. Everything around us was so green, lush and alive.

  “Now, I’ll just hunt for something to eat,” Logan growled. He didn’t hesitate for a second to kick off his shoes and dip into the water. With one swift motion he pulled his shirt over his head. Carnal thoughts started flooding my brain. God, I would just like to run my fingers down those sinewy abs... He stopped short to the middle of the stream, crouching with his hands lowered to the surface of the water.

  “Come, catch a fish!” Logan growled commanding me at his side.

  I shook my head. “I don’t swim.”

  Logan stood fully erect and scowled. “Don’t swim? Silly humans. How do you humans survive?”

  I’ve been afraid of water since the day my older brother drowned in our pool. I hadn’t stepped one foot in a pool ever since.

  I held my arms in close to my chest and stomped my foot, trying to look as intimidating as I could. “I just don’t swim alright. You can’t make me!”

  “I can’t?” Logan chuckled. Logan strode in my direction and painfully scooped me up in his arms. God, help me! These tigers can be brutal bastards. I pummeled Logan’s sun-bronzed shoulders with my fists. Logan groped my hips as he set me down in the water. I panicked and my head was spinning. Seeing the water churn around my ankles made me feel faint like I’d fall over.

  “I’m so scared,” I cried, wanting nothing more than to get back on land. I felt miserable, and sick.

  Logan drifted his hands up my arms and forced me around to face him. We stare at each other, and my knees tremble at the sight of his smoldering eyes. He hungered to make it known that no matter what, I had no need to be afraid. “You have nothing to fear. As long as I am at your back, you will never drown.”

  He then lifted my chin with his rough finger, and my thoughts went to very dirty places again.

  “Now, let’s catch that fish,” He growled.

  He took my hands into his and dunked them in the cold stream.

  “Be still,” Logan demanded. “Nature will do the rest.”

  The two of us just stood there listening to nature.

  Splash!

  Logan freely dunked my hand in the water, and I jumped at the sight of a huge fish wriggling in our grasp. A long smooth claw grew out of Logan’s finger. He then slashed it down its thrashing throat, killing it immediately.

  But even though I regretted watching that, I couldn’t be more thankful for Logan dragging me, kicking and screaming, into the water. It’s like all those fears I had, didn’t haunt me anymore.

  Logan then folded me in his arms and swiftly took me in his mouth. He eagerly sucked on my lower lip, and I exhaled trying my best not to melt in a human puddle.

  “Don’t mate with Kai, you deserve better. You deserve an alpha like me.”

  Logan’s fingers locked with mine and he kissed me again. But still I worried, what if he finds out about who I really am?

  Chapter Three

  Already, I was having trouble having to decide the between the luscious Hunters. Logan made me feel so comfortable in my own skin. And even though I hadn't quite totally gotten over my fear of water. At least I didn't suffer from mysterious dizzy spells, whenever I stood near it.

  I stretched my arms under very thick covers of animal furs, skinned by the strong men of the Hunter tiger clan. I dug into my purse and pulled out my short list of adventures I wanted to explore. To be honest, I’m sorta liking this whole mail order bride gig, it’s not exactly the postcard vacation I pictured, but hey! A girl can’t complain.

  Suddenly, waves of scantily clad female tigresses strutted into my bedroom, carrying golden trays filled with fresh fruit and as much food as far as the eye could see. I snuck my list under my pillow.

  That’s more like it.

  I scrambled awake, rubbing my eyes with my fists. The sheets I slept on smelled freshly pressed and the covers I slept under were as soft as swan feathers.

  “You’re awake...” a strange husky voice echoed. I caught a glimpse of Kai entering the bedroom.

  I jerked up, pulling the covers over my breasts.

  Wow, this guy looks FRIGGIN’ fantastic!

  "Hope you're rested cause we're gonna get wild," he growled.

  I tilted my head. "Huh?"

  "I'm not sure what you and Logan did yesterday. And honestly, I really I don't care. He's the boring one. I'm
the fun guy. And today, we're gonna have fun!" Kai broadly grinned.

  Kai wore perfectly fitted stone-washed jeans and a linen shirt rolled up at the sleeves. He had a sleeve of tribal tattoos snaking all the way up to his shoulder. He picked up one of the fruits on the tray and fed it to me.

  "Where's all of my clothes?" I asked.

  "Oh, yeah. Forgot to mention. I burned all of it..." Kai shrugged casually.

  "WHAT?!" I blurted.

  My face fumed bright red. I’m pissed that I’m unable to strangle Kai where he stood, because I was completely naked underneath the covers.

  "When I get over there, I'm going to kill you," I hissed.

  A smile spread across Kai's cheeks. "I'd like to see you try. Hey, at least you have a little moxie in you. When I first met you, I thought you were a little. I don't know.... too chipper."

  Chipper?

  Kai then leaned over to me, while I was still glowing red from anger. And he kissed me on the neck. For a second, I could feel the scrape of his scratchy tongue. And then suddenly, my mind goes blank, and I forget what steamed me up in the first place. Men, or shifters, like Kai don't look at round girls like me. I'm mean, he's so handsome. I thought that I must be hallucinating.

  "You’re rage turns me on. Tigers love a mate with a blistering temper... you truly are the perfect specimen. We certainly made the right choice..." Kai flattered, speaking now against my shoulder. I laughed awkwardly, knowing that my presence here was completely based on a lie. More Tigress' entered the room holding bikini’s.

  "Uh, you're not actually going to make me wear one of those?"

  Kai considered it for a second. "Hey, it's no problem if you just want to show up naked. I'll take that too..."

  I blushed ruby red again, snatching a frilly swimsuit from one of the ladies.

  "Uh, no. I think I'll wear it.

  *

  "Christ..." I grumbled digging out the frilly fabric wedged way up in my ass.

  Kai doesn't really think this is sexy? I mean when I looked at my reflection in the mirror, I grimaced. My "girls" were bursting out of the seams.

  "Hurry up!" Don't got all day. If you make me wait any longer—I'm gonna come in there," Kai called.
