Ravin is a wealthy and handsome man, but he is a dragon. He was cursed by a powerful wizard for loving the wrong woman. Ravin finds Jac to be a very  beautiful and interesting woman, but he needs her for more than his personel desire.

Jac is a museum curator who spealizes in mysticism and forklore. She set up an exhibit whose main pieces came from Ravin's personel collection.  Jac's whole world is work, and she doesn't even remember the last time a man has pique her interest the way Ravin has .

When these two meet they are instantly attacted to each other, but Jac denies her feels by attracking Ravin's character. In doing so she misjudges him.  Ravin finds that Jac treats him as a normal man, and not a bank account which is a rare occurance. These two finally come together only to discover they both have hidden secrets. These secrets could either tear them apart or give them a love of a lifetime. 

Taming the Beast is an entertaining fast read. The story comes together nicely making you want to keep reading. I thought Taming the Beast was a wonderful short story making me crave the next story to come.
