This anthology collection was just released, I have not read or reviewed it yet – that will happen in the next few days.

Bear shifter, Jason, has seen all his fellow Silverback Saviors mated and married.

Now, it’s his turn. High in the mountains, he senses her. His mate. The woman he’s waited his whole life for is finally within reach. However, something holds him back. She’s with someone. A shifter. But not just any shifter.

Dragon!

Shannon and her son, Lorcan, are in trouble. After a clandestine visit from a hunter, who says he knows what Lorcan is, they are forced to leave their home. They journey to Bear Creek in the hope of finding some kind of treasure to pay off a debt they don’t even owe.

The thing that scares Shannon the most is what happens if they don’t find the treasure and pay off the debt.

After keeping Lorcan safe his whole life, her world soon spirals out of control. But then Jason comes into their lives. Jason who calls Shannon his mate and will do anything to keep her and Lorcan safe. Can she accept his help? Can she trust him? Perhaps, if they work together, they can find the treasure and pay off the hunter’s debt.

But something is stirring inside Lorcan. Something that he might not be able to control once it’s unleashed. Something that says the treasure is mine.

Obsessed with the Alpha Wolf by Brittany White

Posted February 18, 2020 by Marsha in Shifter Series / 0 Comments

Only she could soothe the storm raging inside him…

She only knows me as a firefighter who saved her life.
My truth is much darker.
She might never forgive me once she finds out who I really am.

Something dangerous is coming for his pack. Ben Stokes, wolf shifter and Alpha of the Lenox pack can feel it deep in his bones. His problems are only compounded when he meets a human woman, who he is drawn to despite knowing that tangling with a human would spell disaster. And Ben cannot explain why his instincts want to turn him into her protector. He knows that he shouldn’t get close to her… but he can’t stop himself.

Lana Deary has come to Lenox to start a new business and new life. Only things don’t go according to plan when she arrives to find her business a smoldering mess and her attraction to Ben Stokes, the hot firefighter she meets on the scene is not part of her plan.

As Ben tries to hold his pack together as the feeling of danger ramps up, and Lana tries to rebuild the ruins of her life, the attraction between the two of them is undeniable. But as their passion grows, so does the danger to the love blossoming between them.

And when an old enemy does come to Lenox, Ben will have to choose between love for his pack and love for the woman who may just well be his mate.

Savage Pride by Cecilia Lane

Posted February 17, 2020 by Marsha in Shifter Connected, Shifter Series / 0 Comments

Alpha lion who is all growl and bite?
Defiant human with a broken heart?
An enemy out to break them both?

Running from a devastating betrayal, Hailey’s wound is salted when car trouble strands her in the path of a snarly lion shifter with a chip on his shoulder the size of Pride Rock.

She can’t decide what’s worse—his snarky, human-hating attitude, or the fact that her judgment sucks and she is falling in love with the devil in sexy blue jeans. But refusing to trust will cost her more than her future happiness… it could cost her life.

Alpha lion Trent has no one but his pride, a group of misfits holding onto control by a claw under his leadership. He doesn’t need the complication of a stubborn, mouthy, human woman who looks him in the eye and sets off every instinct to claim.

Especially since his uncle is threatening to solve Trent’s Hailey problem with violence.

Trent isn’t the only one who wants to see all humans kicked out of town and lions back at the top of the food chain. He’s just the only one who is starting to change his mind…

…the only one who realizes that the love of a mate is worth fighting, dying, and forgiving for.

Make Her New by T. S. Joyce

Posted February 13, 2020 by Marsha in Shifter, Shifter Series / 0 Comments

Everyone has Hunter Kaid all wrong. Even his own brother writes him off as unintelligent, but not all smarts are the same. He just needs one person to understand him and listen to what he’s really saying. All of his life, he’s been searching for that one person who really takes the time to see him, and just when he’s about given up, he stumbles upon Sadey. She’s hurt one of his pack-mates, and his loyalty to his people wars with his interest in this human woman with a sad smile and a good heart. He might not be the brightest apple in the bunch, but he has a talent for seeing the good in people, and Sadey Lawklin is oozing with goodness that he can’t ignore. A hurt woman like her needs time and patience before he tries to change her life, but the closer she gets to him, the more his inner wolf wants to claim her. And now he can’t tell who is in more danger—himself, or her.

Sadey Lawklin is in the armpit of her life. She’s dug herself into a hole that will be nearly impossible to dig out of, and the very first thing she needs to do is apologize to the people she’s hurt before she can heal herself. She has a plan to turn her entire life around in a matter of weeks, but one thing she didn’t plan on is another man sniffing around her. This is the worst timing to get attached to someone, and especially someone as agile and deadly as a Kaid Brother. No one messes with the Kaids. Everyone in town knows who they are, but they haven’t figured out what they are. And when Sadey discovers Hunter’s deep, dark, and terrifying secret, she’s sucked down a rabbit hole that just might break her…unless the watchful wolf who has chosen her can Make Her New.

I don’t date—especially when it comes to humans. She rolls in like a bulldozer, smashing all my rules to bits. She’s human, and she’s my mate.

She’s got scrapbooks. She’s got dreams. She’s got an obnoxious tendency to micromanage everything I do. It’s her bed and breakfast and her renovation project, but I don’t take orders.

I can’t stop watching her. The wolf in me wants to play, to mark her, to claim her as mine.

And when a creepy-ass monster threatens my human woman? I’ll protect her and keep her safe, even if she runs when she sees the real me.

I’ll make her my mate if only I can convince her that I’m anything but a monster.

Jingle bells and magic spells

Daniella has everything she needs for a quiet Christmas at home with her dog, Fabio. She’s got way too much food, a real Christmas tree, a cable station streaming non-stop holiday movies, and even fruitcake. All she needs now is an ornament for her tree…

But what she gets instead is a glass dragon imprisoning a gorgeous naked guy from another world.

Trey, fae dragon knight, protector of the realm, and defender of the fallen crown, has finally been released from his spell by a kiss from a beautiful woman (and her noble hound).

All reviews on Shifter Haven are my own personal reflections on Paranormal Shifter Romance Novels that I have read. These stories are either owned by me in my personal physical book or Kindle edition library, or were given to me as gifts from friends - and occasionally an author for review. I also borrow books through my Kindle Unlimited plan. And of course, many of my reviews are made possible through the kindness of publishers using NetGalley by allowing me to read advance copies of not yet published books in exchange for an honest review. No money passes hands for any of my reviews. All my opinion, good or bad.
