Publisher's Summary:
Graphic content warning! Highly descriptive sexual themes and graphic language!
Part Three in the Dormant Desires Series. For a comprehensive back story please see, Alpha Awakened and Omega Rising.
In this third installment, Lumen is our focus. She is a lycanthropic wolf, shifted to human. Her perceptions are that of a wolf, and her psyche is absent of all human morals or civility. As we follow her development and integration with the rest of the Alpha Pack, we find out more about the ancient curse inflicted upon all shape shifters. With the lifting of the curse follows a multitude of ramifications, including the apparent mated status between Mathew and the now human-looking, wolf-acting, Lumen.
There are comical moments, heartbreaking moments, lots of passionate and erotic moments, and more in-depth study of Jacob, Allison, Samantha and the rest of the Alpha Pack.

Can't say enough about this series!
Any additional comments?
I absolutely loved this series and on audiobook, it's even better...thanks to the narrator! Joshua is amazing! I can't stand when women narrators do male voices so this was realistic and HOT. I'd love to hear more from him and Payne!
OMG! This is the best!
What did you love best about Lumen?
It would be easier to say what I didn't like! And that would be nothing. There isn't a thing about Lumen I didn't love
Who was your favorite character and why?
I still have to lean towards Jacob. Who doesn't want to have their own alpha male hunk taking charge!
Which character as performed by Joshua Story was your favorite?
I love Jacob. Joshua does his voice in such a sexy manner...makes your toes curl. Love a guy with an accent.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
Without giving anything in the story away, I think the most moving was when Samantha and Iain told the family of their decision they made.
Any additional comments?
I love the fact that the pack is seeking other shifters. This opens the doors for so many future installments of the series. This episode showed more of the humour of the pack, especially through Lumen herself. She is comical in her new position. Loved this book, and really love the series. This is the perfect example of two very talented artists combining their gifts together and creating an awesome product in the end. Joshua Story, you rock! Payne, I love your imagination and where your mind brings us.
New twist on "Doggy Style"
Any additional comments?
I love the humor of Lumen! Although Allison and Jacob are still going at it, we have new entertainment in this book with Lumen and Matthew. Lumen constantly had me rolling! Once a wolf, she now takes human form and has to learn to act like one. Well, at least she is trying to... somewhat.
I love how the series was written. One gripes I have with some authors is introducing too many characters too quickly. Payne gradually introduced characters into the story line through the entire series. I hate having to try to keep of track of 20 characters in the first 10k words of a book. Another gripe I have is covers. Come on ladies, does every romance book have to have a guy with exposed abs on the cover for you to buy it? And you say men are shallow ... but I digress.
