Being a veterinarian and shifter gives Tayen Locke an intense drive to protect the creatures in the animal reserve and forest she’s responsible for.  It should be more than enough to keep her busy, but her lack of success finding a mate seems to be forefront in her mind.  Rogan James and Quinn Harrington would like nothing better than for the skittish vet to let them show her how much she means to them, but she frustrates them at every turn, fearful that her feline form will be more than they can swallow.  She admits to herself somewhat reluctantly that these two are her mates, and the two rugged Rangers make her an offer she can’t refuse - dinner with the promise of something more if she wants it.
Before they can seal the deal, Quinn and Rogan are called out to deal with an ever growing situation involving poachers, leaving Tayen to give some thought to what this dinner could lead to.  Her thoughts are cut short when she can hear over the radio that the guys are pursuing the poachers after discovering casualties and she makes the decision to head out in her bobcat form to aid them.  One thing leads to another and she ends up snared and tranquilized causing her to shift back to her human form, much to Quinn and Rogan’s surprise.  Rather than sending the two of them packing, they’re intrigued and relieved to finally get some of the “why” behind her refusal to date them all of this time.  They begin working through their issues with each other, taking the first tentative steps to build a relationship, while combating the increasing problem with the poachers threatening the local wildlife.
Snared, by Kris Norris is book seven in her “Phases” series.  While it does follow a general theme with her previous novellas, this one can certainly be read as a stand alone piece.  Tayen, Rogan, and Quinn burn up the sheets with their sexual discovery of one another and while they were passionate and left me panting, little else did in this book.  I found the dialogue between them a little too stilted for my tastes, making it difficult to really connect with the three main characters on a believable adult level.  I did find the story enjoyable overall, however more suspense with their relationship and a deeper development of the secondary plot involving the poachers would have made it more of an intense read for me.
