Short description

Passion too hot to ignore: a romance between a Crainesian woman with a troubled past, the life-mate she denied and the intense pheromone heat drawing them together. Can Zeenie leave phantoms of her past behind and embrace her fantasies, or will she leave Turk feeling rejected once again?

Extended description

After a devastating trauma, Zeenie attended a college mixer and experienced powerful Crainesian pheromones between herself and Turk. Unprepared for the life-mate call, she panicked and fled. Turk has waited and yearned for Zeenie for years while staying dialed in to her recovery. Finally, rumor says she’s ready to date again, and he’s determined to make her short list, even if it means resorting to a little trickery.

On a blind date, he surprises her with patience and maturity when she fights against their pheromone bond, then shows tenderness and consideration when phantoms of her past arise.

As she learns more about Turk, Zeenie entertains heated fantasies of what could be and makes tentative forays into his sensual world. But her initial rejection broke with Crainesian custom and continues..

Review by: Pamela V. Mason on June 03, 2011 : (no rating)
Annie Rayburn expands her Crainesians' world with Phantoms and Fantasies and gives women, human and Crainesian alike, a satisfying glimpse into a erotic relationship that begins in the mind.
Zee and Turk's story begins with a Halloween date that goes sour due to an ugly memory resurfacing. Zee, a rape victim, has done everything possible to heal, but only Turk can complete the process. Will she let him? is the journey Ms.Rayburn takes us on.
Three things I love about Ms.Rayburn's world that she creates here: 1) Women know satisfying sexual encounters begin in our brains.Thanks to Crainesian dream sharing, Zee and Turk show humans how it's done. 2)Her couples actually talk and get to know each other before doing the horizontal tango. Other erotica I've read have them doing it three words after Hello. And 3)... oh, you need to read the book for #3. Trust me, you'll love how Ms.Rayburn turns dating and mating rituals on its head with her Crainesians.
