Mated to Curves: Book One
Avani is okay with being alone. Even though all shifters are packless and the world looks vastly different now that the humans are suspicious they exist, she’s handling the solitary life quite well. However, she’s thrown a curve ball when she finds out that her mate owns a shifter underground club she frequents. Once he laid eyes on her, he was determined to keep her. But, even though he’s incredibly attractive, enticing, and she wants more than anything to give in to him, she isn’t stupid. Two alphas together would start a pack and that could be disastrous. With her demanding to remain mate-less for the good of their kind, how is he going to convince her to accept him?
This is a steamy curvy girl shifter romance with two strong alpha characters.

In this shifter world there are no packs anymore. It's a difficult decision made to keep the existence and freedom of shifters. However there are still humans/people lurking on the outskirts of the shifter world intent on proving they exist and wanting to reveal them to everyone in the world, wanting to put an end to the species altogether, one such man is reporter Gary Spelling, obviously detested by the shifter population.
All this keeping under the radar leaves shifters, particularly Alpha's a need to burn off energy. No longer able to shift and run in packs, or even live in packs they need an alternative.
Cade former Alpha of the Glacier Mountain Pack provides a suitable option, an underground fighting club. Though Cade used to take part in the fights in the early days of the club now he just sits at the bar talking with sometimes bartender Cruz. Cade watches the room and is around to handle the general arguments that take place in a bar as well as any fighting that overspills from the ring.
The rules of the ring are, well just one rule no shifting at all, not even partially! The shifters fight in human form until one is literally knocked out or taps out. There's a healer, Aaron on hand to help with injuries as even shifters need help sometimes after a fight in the ring!!
When Avani walks in she notes she smells like blood sweat & tears, three of her favourite things! Avani is an Alpha and refuses to conform to a human job so she fights in clubs like this for money. Avani is at this club as she had to move on from her last one as it had got to the stage where no shifter wanted to fight her. Avani fought well and was used to winning, unfortunately a new club means opponents she hasn't had a chance to see fight or work out their weaknesses. Its finally Avani's turn to fight, her opponent is built like a house and called Kye. Kye wins the fight leaving Avani making her way to the bar to drink something strong to anaesthetise some of her pain. That's where Cade finds himself drawn to her and when she eventually returns his gaze on his Alpha command he immediately knows she is his mate. Avani wants nothing to do with a mate bond and the potential issues it could draw to them but Cade appeals to the fighter/earner in Avani saying if she comes back the following day he will show her why she lost the fight to Kye and more importantly how to beat him in the next fight.
Avani coerces her friend and fellow shifter Joyce to go to the fight club the next evening. It seems the mate bond is not on board with the whole single shifters, no packs rule as it's not long before Joyce finds herself locking eyes with her own mate.
With Cade & Avani together and Joyce locking eyes with her mate you might think theres going to be a straight forward happy ending, the one and only Gary Spelling pops up complete with camera at a rather unfortunate moment capturing Avani as her shifter.
This is a really good plot that I can see and hope is built on to create a nice lengthy shifter series. Theres certainly some steamy adult scenes within but it's all within the book storyline.
Summing up Wow! This is a great steamy start to a potentially sizzler of a series, loved it! When can I read more?

Mated to Curves, Book 1 by D.V. Fischer
I purchased this book.
I met this author at a book signing. When I saw I could get 5 novellas for a few bucks I jumped. I started this book when I was on the long drive home. The author has several novellas series (all on audio as well). I just grabbed this set and went. They are all standalones. The only issue I had was wondering why wolf packs dispersed. I am not sure if that is discussed in another book but otherwise, I just rolled with it. Packs can’t be packs. Got it!
Cade is an alpha who finds happiness taking care of the submissive shifters in his fighting ring. He can’t be the alpha but he gives the packless a place to be.
Avani is a scappy female alpha who is looking to make a big pay day fighting Kye in the underground club. All is good until she and Cade make eye contact then BOOM. There is a lot of hell no’s from Avani and Cade uses all his good moves to get her alone with him.
I was loving this book and then we get to see the couple for book 2, Kye and Joyce. I was thrilled because Joyce was a riot!!! She is the best best friend anyone would want.
If you love instalove, fated mates, shifters, and all that jazz then this series is a must for you!!

Fantastic!
D. V. Fischer creates characters to burn for. No matter the genre or the story's length, they are charismatic and leave lasting impressions. Excellent world building so smooth it simply seems real. Add a bit of spice and you have yet another winning series from an accomplished author.

I enjoyed this entertaining and engaging PNR romance with defined MCs. Both the MCs are alphas, have chemistry, and attraction, and need outlets for their alpha. The storyline is fast-paced and has action, drama, chemistry, and a HEA. I voluntarily read an ARC and this is my honest review.

Such an amazing shifter romance short story, DV Fischer definitely knocked it out of the park again, I absolutely loved Avani and Cade’s story and can’t wait to read the next one.

It's definitely a great start to what will be a fantastic series. Really hope to read more, as I was pulled into the story pretty quick and left me wanting more. (But in the best way)

Loved this short but sexy story of Avani and Cade🌶️🥵 Have a feeling the further I delve into this series that I’m not going to like Gary Spelling!!
