RA'S CHOSEN-MATE HUNGER ISBN:  978-1-41992-893-2 BUY Reviews Set hadn’t realized he’d had an audience watching him take out the undead until he’d heard the feminine gasp coming from behind him. The woman looked white as a ghost and on the verge of getting ready to run. Knowing he couldn’t let her leave with the memory of what she had seen, Set quickly closed the distance between them and grabbed her by the arm. Up close, he now recognized her as the bartender who had been working behind The Oasis’ bar that night. He’d checked her out a few times since she started working there a couple months before. With her pretty face, long, blonde hair and slim build, he’d even thrown around the idea of using her as a donor a few times, but whenever he came remotely close to her she’d always avoided his gaze. Knowing there was nothing for it but to wipe the fight from her mind, Set pulled her closer even though she tried to yank her arm free. He slipped the bronze-bladed knife he still held in his other hand back into his boot before he gently took her chin in his hand. “You’re perfectly safe,” he gently reassured her. “Just look into my eyes and you won’t remember what happened here.” She let out a little whimper, but soon stilled when he brought her even closer so their bodies touched. He then looked down into her wide, gray eyes. Set sucked in a breath when he suddenly felt as if someone had sucker punched him in the gut. Falling deeper into her gaze, his cock went instantly hard. His blood hunger came roaring to life as her scent washed over him. He couldn’t stop himself from drawing more of the delicious scent of her deeper into his lungs. His fangs ached to sink into her to see if she would taste as good as she smelled. The feel of her body pressed to his had Set wanting to strip them both naked as he sank both his cock and his fangs into her. He wanted to hear her cries of passion while he took her over and over again. Set shook his head, attempting to control his lustful thoughts and focused on her as he tried to wipe her mind. Nothing happened. He kept hold of her chin while he tried twice more before he gave up. He couldn’t wipe her. It was like he’d run up against a brick wall. Set cursed under his breath. What he was going through, the sudden blood and sexual hunger she raised in him along with her intoxicating scent and now his inability to wipe her mind, were all the things Mehen had gone through when he’d first met Blythe, his mate. Conflicting emotions overtook Set as he let go of the woman and wrapped her in his embrace. On one hand, he didn’t want her to be his. Since Mehen had taken a mate, and Ra had said the rest of them would find their mates eventually, Set had thought he didn’t need a woman in his life. But now that he had more than likely found the mate Ra had promised would be his, he didn’t find the idea so abhorrent. She actually felt good in his arms, and standing around close to six feet with the high heels she now wore, her height was a good match for his. She shivered against him but made no attempt to push him away. In a quiet voice, she said, “You can let me go. I promise I won’t tell anyone what happened. I…I really have no idea what I saw, anyway.” Set fought the urge to take her kissable lips, to get his first taste of her. “What’s your name?” “Desiree. I know who you are. You’re Set.” He grinned to himself at that. Desiree may have avoided making eye contact with him, but she obviously was interested in him, which was a good thing. Her being affected by him would go a long way if it did turn out she was his mate. He would count on her attraction to him to help ease her into his world. He loosened his embrace and took her by the arm once more. “Well, Desiree, it looks as if you’ll be coming with me.” Not giving her a chance to deny him, Set started to drag her toward his black Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano that sat parked at the back of the lot. That was when Desiree started to fight him. She dug in her high-heeled shoes, fighting him every step of the way. “Stop! All I want to do is go home.” Hearing fear in the shrill tone of Desiree’s voice, Set slowed and turned back toward her. “Going home is not an option for you right now. Just be a good girl and come with me.” In a move Set never expected Desiree could possibly make in her snug miniskirt, she lifted her knee, hitting him squarely between his legs.

Reviews 5 Stars:  What a fabulous follow up to book one in the series. The more and more I read about these boys the more I fall in love with them. I really liked the flow of the book and the little hints telling us that the undead seem to be working on bigger plan that we haven't seen yet. I love the series so far and I can't wait for the next book. I highly recommend the series to anyone looking for a good read but be warned, once a Warrior sinks his fangs into you...you'll never want them to let go.--Heathermh, Night Owl Reviews 4 Stars:  Marisa Chenery has a hit series with her Ra’s Chosen MATE HUNGER is the second book in the series and it can be described in one word “HOT”. Another nice thing about this series is you do not have to read the first book to follow the second. I am thoroughly looking forward to the next book in this series.--Annette, RomFan Reviews 4 Bats:  Marisa Chenery's “Mate Hunger” sizzles with passion and electrifying sex! Your blood will be fire once you read this book. If you are a sucker for romances like I am, I guarantee you will enjoy this book. The ending to this book will have you wanting to read sequel to “Mate Hunger”. I'm already anticipating the next release.!--Raven Kelly, Raven Kelly's Blog 4 Ravens:  Mate Hunger, book two in the Ra’s Chosen series, is a great erotic paranormal romance. Marisa Chenery does an excellent job with her characterization. I am looking forward to book three. I have high hopes that I will get to learn more about Ra’s Chosen Warriors while watching the next warrior find and claim his mate.--Johnna Wyline, Blackravens Reviews 4 Delightful Divas:  I enjoyed the book and am looking forward to the rest of the series. A few things have been hinted at in both books, and I can’t wait to see what is really going on and how it will all play out in the end.--Cheyenne, Dark Diva Reviews 5 Hearts:  The second book in the series, Mate Hunger is still totally stand alone, giving enough information of both the previous book and the other warriors who will star in later books. Ms. Chenery has once again gone above and beyond with this latest saga of Ra's chosen.--Hollie, The Romance Studio This is one of those "don't want it till they can't have it" tales that has humor, wit and a surprising insight into basic human nature. A strong female, an irritating male, hot sex and of course a God to "mix it up" so it stays interesting. It's a fun read.--WitchGiggles, Alternative-Read.com Although I had not read the first book in Marisa Chenery’s “Ra’s Chosen” series, it was not difficult to understand the unique words and phrases used to describe certain activities by the warriors because explanations were smoothly inserted. I very much liked Marisa Chenery’s vivid imagery and descriptions of Egyptian beliefs. They were very professionally done and presented with a classic feel I greatly appreciated.--Red, Reviews At Ebook Addict I was drawn into the world of Ra’s chosen right from the start. Marisa Chenery is a marvelous storyteller that builds a wondrous world that I enjoyed visiting.I love to read about myths and legends so the Egyptian mythology is a nice touch for me and only adds to my enjoyment of the book. Mate Hunger is a great installment in this series and I cannot wait to read the newest release in this series.--Gabrielle, Reviews At Ebook Addict 5 Roses:  I loved book one of Marisa Chenery's Ra’s Chosen series. Book two, Mate Hunger, proved no less satisfying. She’s created an enthralling world of immortal warriors, enchanting romance, and a plot full of action that keeps you on the edge of your seat. Forget the typical vampires penned by most authors; Ms. Chenery has created a new type of blood-drinker that will likely set you afire with longing. Her warriors are smoking hot and have stuck with this reader even after reaching the end. I can promise you this, I’ll be thinking about this book for a long while to come. Link-- Willow, Pillow Talk Reviews 4.5 Cherries:  Once again, Ms. Chenery has penned an exciting tale of Ra’s Chosen. In Mate Hunger, the characters are equally as enthralling as they were in book one. You can’t help but feel for Set as he struggles to convince Desiree of her importance in his life. If book one was enough to whet your whistle, then you better go ahead and get book two, Mate Hunger. Of course, if you’re new to Ms. Chenery’s Ra’s Chosen series, don’t fret, you can easily pick up with this one and not miss a thing. I must warn you though, her warriors are addicting and you’ll likely find yourself wanting them all for your own.--Verbena, Whipped Cream
