Kara MacAllister's quiet small-town life is transformed forever the night a powerful stranger rips her from her home, claiming she is the chosen one – the key to his survival. Spiriting her away into the rain-soaked night, Lyon reveals a truth Kara can barely credit. She's immortal, and the only one who can save his race. And deep within her, he arouses a fierce, primal hunger beyond anything she's ever imagined. But only when their lives are threatened by an ancient evil will Kara and Lyon realize they have found a love they would risk their immortal souls to claim...and a powerful desire that could never, ever be tamed.

Desire Untamed is the first book in the Feral Warrior series.

Desire Untamed by Pamela PalmerThe Potomac River's wild, untamed Great Falls.

When deciding on a setting for the Feral Warriors series, I knew I wanted it somewhere in the Washington, D.C. area. Not only is D.C. a fabulously interesting city that I happen to live near, but the surrounding area possesses a wonderful variety of choices. Beaches, mountains, Civil War battlefields, all lie within a couple of hours' drive. But the location of Feral House was another matter. Their wild, animal natures demanded a setting as untamed as they are. And I knew just the place. One of my favorites for the very reason that the wild nature feels so out of place in the civilized suburbs of our Nation's Capital.

The place was Great Falls Park.

Great Falls Park, and the towns of Great Falls and McLean, Virginia, lie along the rugged stretch of the Potomac River where the river narrows, building up dangerous force as it pushes through the narrow Mather Gorge. At the Gorge, the river races over a series of steep, jagged rocks, 76 feet of Class 5-6 Whitewater, making the Great Falls one of the most thrilling fall line rapids in the eastern U.S. The Great Falls are located 14 miles upstream from Washington, D.C. And it's along this stretch of the Potomac, in the thick and rocky forest, where the Ferals live.
