5 MY-HEART-AND-PANTIES-ARE-MELTING-OVER-HERE STARS
Fury was SUCH a wonderful book!
I was actually a bit nervous since all the reviewers on GR rated it 2-4 stars.
It's still a mystery to me as to why, because i LOVED it!
Fury has never known compassion or love. He’s spent his life in a cell, chained and abused by humans. The one woman he allowed himself to trust betrayed him. Now he’s free and set on vengeance. He vows to end her life but when she’s finally in his grasp, harming her is the last thing he wants to do to the sexy little human.
Ellie is horrified to discover the pharmaceutical company she works for is doing illegal experiments. Company scientists have spliced human and animal DNA, creating exotic new species. One such “experiment” captures her heart and she’ll do anything to save him—even if he hates her for it.
But loving Fury is one thing…taming him is another.
I have been wanting to start this series for SUCH A LONG TIME. I think it's been 2 years now. Finally got some sense into myself and brought it.
Let me tell ya something - after the 1st chapter i called myself a genius for picking it up.
A lot of readers have been saying this is extremely similar to Laura Leigh's Breeds series. I don't know as i haven't read them. But i think it's mean saying Fury is a poor copy version of it.
I haven't read anything quite like Fury. So i found the plot very refreshing and new.
It was awesome and one of the reasons i loved it so much.
It's good to read something unique once in a while.
What i thought of Fury?:
Fury has that name for a reason! He is filled with rage on everyone who inflicted pain upon him and his kind and who betrayed him. Who gained his trust and then crushed it right in front of his face.
I felt emotional reading about his past and the pain he injured when he was locked up and experimented on.
Let's not forget he is NOT human! Only partly. He is also canine (or something like that - can't remember the name but it's some sort of animal). And OMG do i wish i could have my own Fury to do the things he does in bed! YUM!
What i thought of Ellie?:
I thought she was a fantastic heroine! She was very brave, caring and tenderhearted. Fully human of course.
I don't remember ever being annoyed with her.
She had suffered a bit from bullying and people who couldn't accept her for who she was.
However, Fury changed that and showed her just how beautiful he thought she was, and that her looks didn't even matter to him.
This book had some flaws, don't get me wrong. I felt like the characters were sometimes repeating the same things all over again and that bored me a little. I admit a skipped a tiny bit of those parts.
But Fury was action packed and i didn't want to stop reading. In fact i stayed way past bed time cause i couldn't force myself to put it down - yes it was that good.
I even didn't go to university for the day because the urge to finish it and find out what will happen next was very strong. Too strong to resist. I got in shitload of trouble for that.
Overall...
Fury was an AMAZING book that i could not put down and i thought about constantly. The characters and plot are realistic and epic. Sex scenes were freaking HOT! The ending was very cute and a great HEA!
CAN.NOT.WAIT.FOR.BOOK.2!
Definitely pick it up, ladies!

I love this series as well. I have read the Breed series and while I see the comparison I think that Dohner does a great job making her series unique. So far my fave book of the series is Valiant followed closely by Fury. Great review!

I think you should give it a go. Him being part animal doesn't make the sex any different than him being fully human. He just has these super cool abilities (e.g - better sense of smell, hearing, sight, etc). And it makes him much more powerful, dominant and protective ;)
