Summary**2005 PEARL NOMINEE - BEST EROTIC ROMANCE** TOIL: Tormented by a curse that leaves him in cat form for

When she calls on the powers-that-be and asks them to send
her a familiar capable of protecting her, she ends up with a
naked hunk and her cat nowhere in sight... Can Trevor

Ian and Marian together in a dream, Marian wants to help Ian
resume his normal existence. Convinced there's no such thing
where he's concerned, Ian continually looks for an open door
out of her apartment and her life. While Marian might be his

his best choice. It's the one noble thing he has ever done...
