Summary (from Amazon):
Book 3 in the Wolf Breeds series: The forces of survival and destruction swirl in the darkest corners of men's minds. The nature of the beast cannot be harnessed, and survival is the purest of all instincts. Survival of the species itself goes soul deep. But can the human heart accept and adapt as easily? Can Charity bestow the love and the acceptance that has always been a part of her, to the man whose very survival depended on the hardening of his heart, of his soul? And can Aiden maintain that cruelty now, in the face of the sacrifices she made? Only time and nature can tell. 

Review:
Doctors pump drugs through Aiden for months in order to get him aroused to get semen samples. But Aiden won't let them control him and pretends to be impotent, that is until Charity gets too close in order to save his life. He can't control his body when Charity's around and when Charity shows the doctors that Aiden isn't impotent, Aiden promises never to forgive her for betraying him. Six years later Charity manages to escape the lab, but when she sees Aiden again, she can't help the anger that surfaces because he didn't come back for her. But no matter how much they both hate each other, the lust that surges through both of their bodies won't let them go until they satiate it.

This is one of my favorite paranormal romance novels of all time. I enjoyed the love/hate relationship between Charity and Aiden and I liked that the author dragged out their relationship until the chemistry boiled over. The misunderstandings between Charity and Aiden, though, sometimes got to be a little too much and at times I couldn't help shaking my head at them. But that doesn't take away from the interesting plot and characters, that kept me turning pages late into the night.

Overall, I would definitely recommend Aiden's Charity by Lora Leigh to anyone looking for a good paranormal romance novel with a love/hate relationship theme.
