Bless the Beasts

Claire is more confused and uneasy about the apparent interest of her new neighbor, Sarik, than flattered. He may be the epitome of every female's desires from eight to eighty, but she knows damned well the same couldn't be said for her in relation to men. As suspicious as she is that his motives have nothing to do with a real attraction to her, though, she discovers she's completely unable to resist his allure.But is it significant that the handsome, enigmatic and completely irresistible stranger, Sarik, appears in her life the same time as she discovers the book of incantations? And what, if anything beyond her subconscious desires, does Sarik have to do with the erotic dreams she can barely remember when she awakens? Dreams that manifest themselves in physical signs that shouldn't be there but are?
