What an incredible story by three very talented authors.  This collaboration is an amazing story of shifters, fae folk and of course...bad guys!

Love abounds and appears to come in threesomes!

Superb story of a fairy/fae princess taking back what is rightfully hers with help from her mates' pack as well as a few other unusual folk.  I love Erica and her two mates.  They all want to protect each other but know there is danger along the way.  Fighting for right is not always easy.

Now, shush, I'm off to read book 2!!

This is not new, but Ive been a fan of Terry Spears books since 2009.  The minute I found her Heart of the Wolf series at my favorite used book store, I became a fan.  Shes one reason why Im addicted to shifter books.

I was excited to get a chance to read her new series, which involved cougars.  I definitely knew the minute I started reading, I would have a hard time putting down Cougars Mate.  Terry Spear does amazing research on every shifter book she writes.  I studied about cougars when I was little, so was curious to read a fictional shifter story about them.  (In Florida, we call them panthers,and they are an endangered subspecies of cougars, and Terry Spear did an amazing job on in cooperating these beautiful animals into a story.)  She was able to portray these beautiful animals into  shifters that will win readers hearts.

In Cougars Mate, we have Shannon Rafferty who is on the run due to her witnessing her own boyfriends murder.  She was supposed to be safe with her current boyfriend due to him being a cop.  She ends up dating someone who is into something illegal, and his family thinks he is stealing money from them.  Shes now having to run through the mountains in Colorado as a cougar to hide from her boyfriends family that is looking for her.  She ends up meeting other cougar shifters just like her who want to take her in and protect her.  She doesnt want to put anyone in danger over what has happened and she doesnt want them finding out the truth.  The person who ends up becoming her savior, Chase Buchanan will do anything to win her trust, but she definitely doesnt make it easy.

Lets just say Shannon is one cougar who can take care of herself and managed to make a ruckus in a usually quiet town.  She managed to hurt both Chase (who is a part-time deputy) and his friend, Dan who is the Sheriff.  I have to say I adored Shannons character due to how strong she was. (She probably would have never considered herself strong due to how she always bolted.  She managed to take down to strong characters in the book though and everyone would not let those two live it downLOL)  Even though at times I wanted to slap her silly.  She could have just told the truth about everything and everyone would have accepted her, but I also understood why she didnt.  She definitely made the book very lively, especially when she first met Chase and Dan.  (She was able to best both of themI love when a female character can take down two alpha males)

Chase was such an adorable character.  He was willing to do anything for Shannon the moment he met her, even when she made it difficult for him.  I loved his alpha tactics, but I also adored his way of winning over Shannon.  He was soft with her at first until the very end.  He gave her time to trust himwhich again was not easy.  He had lots of patience.  =)

I enjoyed every minute of this book and look forward to reading the next in the series.  If you are looking for a book that has romance, action from beginning to end, and lots of humor then this book is for you.

I give this book 4.5 moons and recommend it to paranormal romance readers out there.  If you haven't read Terry Spears books yet, then you are missing out on some amazing books.

I received a complimentary copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

This is a take on bear shifters in a different light.  They make a living in a fighting ring against other bear shifters, but in the human world.  They have human promoters and they have to deal with many issues along the way. Including hatret between them and other shifter clans.  Things get very interesting when they meet a human lawyer who gives them unwanted advice about how to handle an issue.  Needless to say things get very interesting when she is introduced into the story.  I love, The Broken Hill Bears clan and the charactors this book and book 1 introduced.  Like Xander, Braxton, Rocco, Ryker, and Xanders human mate Freya. Braxton has a lot to overcome when it comes to humans.  But I can't wait to finish theis journey with him.  You don't want to miss ths. Give it a read you will love it as I do, I promise.

I already like these authors work but together man this was so good. I really liked how their writing flows together and you can't tell where one stops and the other starts. This story is very exciting to read. I loved it. I love me some Mayhem though!

This was great. I love how Terry brought  two wolf shifters  together  and not the shifter/beautiful human. Jordan is a MMA fighter who needs a PR rep to help him with his image. Senna is hired to help him. This is where this great story takes the reader on a journey filled with intrigue,mystery,love and self discovery. Senna has fears from her past that she is running from and a secret that she is not aware of, but Jordan does. How he helps her with her secret also helps him make some life changing  decisions. Reading about Senna and Jordan's journey to love and self discovery was a great treat, one that every lover of shifter romance should not miss.

I read a LOT of shifter/werewolf books and this one is a doozy!

Featuring a new spin on the whole werewolf mate bond, this is a beautiful story!

A young wolf has been waiting since high school, loving a human girl. Driving along one night he doesn't see her and he hits her with his truck. There's only one way to save her! Will it bring them together or ultimately drive them apart? You'll have to read it and find out!

If you like this genre, buy it, I am sure you won't regret it!!  I have found a new favourite author in the form of Krystal Shannon!

Charlotte has created a "new adult" series to die for.  I was captured by the first chapter and read straight through.  This story is a unique blend of shifters and natives to American type culture.  The world building is amazing.

There is so much to this story it is hard to explain. There is need vs. wants. There are old wounds that need to be healed. There are a plethora of secrets.  There is jaw dropping desire.  Everything you want in a good book, it's all there.

This author knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat in anticipation for what will come next.  I was rooting for the couple until the very end when she pulls out a heart stopping ending that will have you clamoring for the next book.

Now I'm not sure if I want the next Channie book or if I want this one.  Let's make it easy. I want both now!!!

Remote in the Shadows had me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. It is about Parker, who is a shifter; and Addison and her daughter, London. Addison was trying to escape an abusive relationship to keep her and her daughter safe. Parker finds them and feels drawn to her. He has a past of his own that he is trying to forget. Addison is very skeptical of men because of what she has been through.  She feels protected with Parker and soon they both allow their hearts to lead. This is an amazing story that I loved!! I think Noelle Rahn-Johnson is a great author and I cannot wait to see what she has coming next.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.  Let me first say that the author said this is her first shifter book  all I can say is wow.  Just wow.  Ive read a lot of shifter novels and this story was just so well-written and well-thought out.  I was pleasantly surprised and couldn't put the story down until I read The End.  It is the start of a series of stories about The Marked, something we learn about almost at the very beginning of A Bear In Need.  Brandon is one of The Marked and is a [and Im quoting the heroine here because it just cracked me up!] lunk-headed douche-canoe who also happens to be a bear shifter.  Elizabeth aka Lizzie (as Brandon has always called her) or Liz (as she has always been known), is back in town after years away to get her recently  passed grandmothers house up for sale.  She also needs to pack up her grandmothers belongings because Liz is the last of a long line of witches in her family and her grandmothers house has much that is magical that needs to be taken out.

The author spent time to help us understand background of the story to set up the rest of the series, at least IMHO.  Both Liz and Brandon have beings after them and it is only when they work together that they can hope to achieve their HEA.  It takes a while for them to build trust in one another and that is the best part of the book, at least for me.  They have so much to conquer before they can accept that they are fated mates, especially since shifters and witches don't exactly get along  These two have scorching chemistry  turns out they always have  and I highly recommend this story.  I know Im looking forward to the rest of the series.

Oh so many things happening in this story for our dragon shifters primarily it is Faye and Grant's story however I think there are also hints as to who might be Cat MacAlister's mate and who Chase MacFarland's mate is as well but only time will tell.  So I will focus on Faye and Grant who you wouldn't think of as being together as they were constantly bickering with one another over one thing or another.  They just needed to do some growing up to realize who the other was and set some things to right for the clan before they allowed the claiming to begin.

If you love dragon shifters and a series with a back story that progresses with each new story than honey you will love these shifters.  Ms. Donovan does a great job of keeping you interested as well as guessing what might happen next and who the next story will be about.  I highly recommend this one and wish my finances were better as I would snag this in a minute as it is I felt lucky to have gotten an advance copy to voluntarily read.

Jennifer Ashley spins a tale of fantastically different diversities in shifters that are searching for a way out of their captivity from their human jailers.

In Feral Heat, Jace and Deni are thrust together in unlikely circumstances. From the beginning they both feel the mating frenzy, a pull to mate and their lives become intertwined forever.  This is their journey to find love, acceptance and freedom.

Deni is lupine and her brother Ellison is her alpha.  Her family consists of her two cubs, Ellison and Maria, Ellison's mate.

This is another great addition to Ms. Ashleys paranormal romance series.  The author has the ability to grab you from the beginning weaving her story through her words causing you to get lost in the politics, drama and danger of shifters living in different Shiftertowns.  There are certain developments in this book that will have you on the edge of your seat.  The interaction between previous characters that you know and love is also a major plus.  You are able to check in and see how their lives together are progressing in this ongoing saga.  This is a highly recommended series to add to your to be read stack.  A look at the life of shifters in a shiftertown community is entertaining and allows the reader inside a fantasy world where they can escape into a reality created by this brilliant author.

I love the way that these authors have come together to create an exciting new series.  First, I have to say that this first installment was WAY TO SHORT!!! I already want more and I know that it's going to be a while before that next book comes out.  GRRRR!!  I think it is miraculous how two authors can actually write one story, because that's what this new series is.  Raphael and Ashe begin the series with total HOTNESS and can't seem to keep their hands off each other.  Then Parish, the biggest bad-ass of the shifters finds that tenderness and caring come so easily when his female is involved.  I can't wait to see what happens next!!!  Wonderful story!!

I was in the mood for a shifter book, and what I thought would be a fun but standard shifter tale is really a brilliant book! The writing is impeccable, the characters are multifaceted and captivating, the world building is very imaginative, and its action-packed, there are some hot, sexy moments, and so easy to read. I loved how the sparks almost literally flew between Melina and Hayden! I was completely captivated by the story right from the beginning. I love all the little details, such as the dcor in Haydens apartment, especially when it comes to a specific painting, which is important to the story. The dialogues sound entirely genuine, I loved how the dynamics between Melina and Hayden progress.

Melina strikes a hard bargain: although her purpose for having taking the job is to advance her career goals, doing so she must help Hayden and see that he succeeds in his quest, and things do not turn out as planned. Most of what is expected in a shifter tale is there but with clever little details that makes it very special. If you like paranormal romance, you definitely should read THE WEREWOLF WEARS PRADA because it's excellent! I hope it will be the start of a new series because it's really great and I would like to see more books in this fabulous world, especially if Kristin Miller writes them.

Loved this story for its totally unique perspective on shifting.  It is sometimes sad because basically Cam is a slave and has been brought up to hate what he is.  Using a Cockatrice as a shifter and making it work is really why this book is so good, because a Cockatrice is in no way a pretty thing.  But you grow to love Cam because of his innocence, his yearning for something for himself yet so afraid to take it.  I had mixed feelings about Dylan at first but his unconditional love for Cam is amazing.  I so hope there is a sequel in the works because I will definitely be buying it.

If you don't know what a Cockatrice is make sure you look it up so you have an idea of what one looks like and the mythology around it.

Wolf-borne and Hunters don't mix. It's hard to be friends when one's sole purpose in life is to destroy the other. Claire never saw it that way though and even though the moontouched killed her parents. Claire has still always been fascinated by the wolf-borne and has come to love some as family and friend. Now her life's mission is to find a way to cure the moon-touched wolves from their madness and help her boys before it's too late. But once Cole enters the picture everything starts to change and Claire feels inexplicably drawn to him in a way she has never felt before. The question is can she figure out her strange new feelings, find a cure, and still be the Hunter she was raised to be before time runs out?

Just wow! Bella has done it again. This story sucked me in from the very first page and still had me hooked by the very last one. I didn't know it was possible to fall in love with a story and it's characters so quickly but I am absolutely done for. The characters are all so different and interesting I can't wait to see where the rest of their story goes. And holy hell that was one heck of a place to leave off the story! I can't wait to get my hands on episode two and in my opinion Moon Crossed (Episode 1) is highly recommended.
