A collection of FIFTEEN steamy Paranormal Romance books featuring curvy women and their fated mates! Includes all kinds of shifters, from wolves, to bears, to panthers and lions!
DORIAN I have had enough of waiting. My mate is out there and I have to find her. It doesn’t matter what it takes, I’ll make her mine.
JASON I had a mate for a total of two minutes. Then she blocked me. It doesn't matter. I won't stop until I find her. No matter what it takes.
DEAN A shifter’s life is not easy. There’s hurt and betrayal. I can’t trust. And I can’t stay. So when I meet my mate, I’m not surprised she backs off. But I’m a patient wolf. And I’ll make her mine.
MAGNUS I’ve spent my life fighting for what’s right. This woman is right for me. My mate. But with me, she’s in danger. Her life is on the line. And I might have to give up more than I bargained for.
AUSTIN I have the best job ever. Photographing a firefighter calendar at the first all-shifters station. Hot men? Check. Preference for curvy girls? Check. Meeting my ex and finding out I still have the hots for him? Nope. That was so not on the list.
NOLAN There’s this guy. He keeps telling me I’m his mate. Sorry, pal. I am not falling for this. I don’t care how hot he is. Or what he makes me feel. I’ve been broken before. And I’m not repeating my mistakes.
HUNTER Bad things happen. But I can’t move on from this one. I want to forget. Learn to enjoy life again. Find a nice man to settle with. I have just one rule. No shifters.
SAVAGE I abandoned the killer life behind me. Now I’m a biker. Not on the right side of the tracks yet, but much better. Then I saw her. She’s a patch of sunlight in my dark soul. And I’m doing whatever it takes to keep her safe. Even if that means never having her.
MADDOX Being the alpha of a biker club and leading other bears across the state is a constant challenge. I take the fall for them. I make and unmake deals and face our enemies so my brothers can have their peace of mind. They can find their mates. I don’t have time for one. What a pity the universe has other plans for me.
NEIL I’m a hopeless romantic, but nature’s not bringing me my mate. Come now, fate. I need to woo her. Take her out. Buy her flowers. But when I find her… Things don’t go quite as I expected.
CALLUM She’s everything both my bear and I have ever wanted. My body craves her curves. But she doesn’t need my possessive, obsessive love now. And I don’t think she’ll ever want it once she learns the truth about my past…
SLATE My mate. She’s finally here. Things will be easy now. She’ll love me right off the bat, I just know it. Wait. She doesn’t want me. She pretty much despises me, and I don’t know why. What the f*ck am I supposed to do?
MAJOR Being the sheriff of a small town should make you look trustworthy. But my mate won’t have it.

Shifter Dating App
This is a collection of a LOT of shifter romance novellas. I recommend reading them one at a time because otherwise they get a little repetitive. There is absolutely no cheating in any of these because in this ficton, it’s impossible for shifters to cheat once they have mated. Cool, no? Overall, this is a 4 star book.
What made me roll my eyes- the author used the words “member” (which is odd because they are not afraid to use the male C and D words) and the word “throbbing” (which is a throwback to historical soft p rn romance c.1986). All stories containing these words have been deducted some heat pointage.
Dorian
MMC/FMC- Dorian and Bella
POV- 1st person dual
Genre- Paranormal Romance
Sub Genre- Shifters (Bear)
Heat- 🌋🌋☄️ 1🌋=2☄️). The word “member” is used to refer to the male part, and every time I read it, I expect someone to pop up and say “Welcome to Sam’s Club”.
Series? Y
Safety- No cheating or S.A.
Triggers- explicit erotic content
Tropes- BBW, Age Gap, Arranged Marriage (Via Dating App), Fated Mates, Dual V Cards
What I liked- this story was sweet with some heat. It explained how the D/Mating App works and showed a couple get matched and have a HEA.
What I didn’t - besides the Member thing, I enjoyed the story.
4 stars.
Jason
MMC/FMC- Jason and Meghan
POV- 1st person dual
Genre- Paranormal Romance
Sub Genre- Shifters (Wolf)
Heat- 🌋🌋🌋
Series? Y
Safety- No cheating or S.A.
Triggers - Explicit Erotic Content, language, violence
Tropes- BBW, Age Gap, Arranged Marriage (Via Dating App), Fated Mate
What made this one distinctive- Instead of falling into his arms immediately, she blocks him on the app because he’s a wolf and she had a bad experience with a wolf.
4 stars.
Dean
MMC/FMC- Dean and Natalie
POV- 1st person dual
Genre- Paranormal Romance
Sub Genre- Shifters (wolf)
Heat- 🌋🌋🌋☄️ (1🌋=2☄️). They do the things and name the parts whilst using the C word.
Series? Y
Safety- No cheating or S.A.
Triggers - language, violence, explicit erotic content
Tropes- BBW, Arranged Marriage (Via Dating App), Fated Mate
What made this one distinctive- It’s about the app creator. And about shifter rights. The author used the non-word specist when I think they meant “speciesist”. They actually use birth control.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This is a collection of a LOT of shifter romance novellas. I recommend reading them one at a time because otherwise they get a little repetitive. There is absolutely no cheating in any of these because in this ficton, it’s impossible for shifters to cheat once they have mated. Cool, no? Overall, this is a 4 star book.
What made me roll my eyes- the author used the words “member” (which is odd because they are not afraid to use the male C and D words) and the word “throbbing” (which is a throwback to historical soft p rn romance c.1986). All stories containing these words have been deducted some heat pointage.

Excellent Characterization, But the Profanity and Grammar
I read the first five books in this generally delightful fated mates shifter series a while back. I love the premise, and the author does an excellent job with characterization. However, that bundle had a few issues that are still problematic in this bundle. Despite the issues, I love having the entire series—all 15 books!—available as one mega collection so I can move from one to the next quickly without even needing to download the next book. I enjoyed revisiting the books I had read before and meeting new characters and watching the romances unfold. Here's my review of the first five books, as it is pretty similar to how I feel about the entire series.
Review of first five books in bundle: Excellent Characters and Stories Despite Flaws
When I read the premise of this series at a book review site, I was intrigued. I rarely read shifter romances, though I do have one favorite author who writes exceptional ones. But I loved the idea of stories based around a shifter dating app. By the way, the books are interconnected, but each can be read and appreciated entirely as a standalone. Luckily, if you get this bundle, your reading enjoyment will be enriched by seeing familiar characters met in one book pop up in others. I like it when books are connected by characters. I enjoyed these stories more than I thought I would. The author creates sympathetic and likable characters. She had me with the first story with a curvy, self-conscious heroine and her bear-shifter mate. Happily, this isn't the standard confident curvy girl/alpha male story. She, in particular, is very vulnerable because she has been fat-shamed her whole life, including by her family. I understand that one completely, which made this heroine so relatable and believable to me. Her bear mate was outstanding. Having just read a book where the “heroine” fat-shamed a customer in her store, it was refreshing to see it told from the other side, with the hurtfulness and ubiquity of it in plain view.
While I liked the characters and their stories, I did have a few issues with this book bundle. My biggest problem is that the book was poorly edited. Random commas are thrown in, while others that should be there are not. It had multiple comma splices as well. (A comma splice is where two independent clauses [i.e., full sentences] are joined simply by just a comma—not a semicolon or a comma with a coordinating conjunction.) I'm also not a fan of profanity in books. In fact, if I had known this book had profanity, I would not have chosen it at the book review site. However, the author still managed to pull it off, making it work for me despite the swearing. I took it more in stride than I usually do when I run across it when I haven't been warned. If you enjoy shifter romance or like stories where the ordinary fat-shamed curvy girls get their guys (who aren't alphas!), you may enjoy this bundle as much as I did.
I received a free copy of this book bundle, but that did not affect my review.

I enjoyed these stories more than I thought I would. The author creates sympathetic and likable characters. She had me with the first story with a curvy, self-conscious heroine and her bear-shifter mate. Happily, this isn't the standard confident curvy girl/alpha male story. She, in particular, is very vulnerable because she has been fat-shamed her whole life, including by her family. I understand that one completely, which made this heroine so relatable and believable to me. Her bear mate was outstanding. Having just read a book where the “heroine” fat-shamed a customer in her store, it was refreshing to see it told from the other side, with the hurtfulness and ubiquity of it in plain view.
While I liked the characters and their stories, I did have a few issues with this book bundle. My biggest problem is that the book was poorly edited. Random commas are thrown in, while others that should be there are not. It had multiple comma splices as well. (A comma splice is where two independent clauses [i.e., full sentences] are joined simply by just a comma—not a semicolon or a comma with a coordinating conjunction.) I'm also not a fan of profanity in books. In fact, if I had known this book had profanity, I would not have chosen it at the book review site. However, the author still managed to pull it off, making it work for me despite the swearing. I took it more in stride than I usually do when I run across it when I haven't been warned. If you enjoy shifter romance or like stories where the ordinary fat-shamed curvy girls get their guys (who aren't alphas!), you may enjoy this bundle as much as I did.
I received a free copy of this book bundle, but that did not affect my review.

The Shifter Dating App by Erin Havoc:
This is a collection of shifter’s trying to find their one true mate and the dating app that allows this to be easier for a lot of people. The stories may be quick but are steamy and full of all the feels that will have you falling in love with each individual shifter and their mate. I wrote more detailed review for the first few stories to give readers an idea of what these short stories are about, but I read them all and enjoyed these fast paced steamy reads.
Dorian: Bella is very skeptical about the dating app that matches humans with shifters as their true mates but as an app tester it’s her job to work out any glitches or if it’s even real. When matched with Dorian, Bella’s insecurities start hitting her hard because how could a huge alpha shifter fall for someone curvy and awkward? Their first meeting sparks fly, but doubt still lingers in the back of Bella’s mind while Dorian does everything he can to prove to her that she is it for him. So hot and steamy it was easy to fall for Dorian.
Jason:
When Jason is matched with his one true mate the last thing he ever expects for her to immediately block him, leaving him beside himself wondering how he will ever find her. Meghan has been treated horribly by one alpha wolf once so she doesn’t want anything to do with shifter wolves again, but when she matched with one she chooses to ignore him and move on with her life, except fate has other plans.
Dean:
Dean is a lone wolf, literally, and he never expects to find his one true mate until he does and completely blows it. Natalie is the creator of the dating app that helps shifters find their mates and she is fiercely protective over shifters and their rights. Natalie is fierce and Dean likes to keep the peace, but when push comes to shove he will step up for those he loves and that’s Natalie.

This boxset contains all fourteen books of the Shifter Dating App series, where curvy women find their perfect shifter fated mates by using the app. Lots of the shifters have been waiting a long time to find their fated mates, some had given up, whilst others didn’t believe they should even deserve one. Some of the women have little confidence in normal dating, having been put down because of their size from past boyfriends and even family, whilst others are confident in their size and shape, with even an Instagrammer. Each story is told from both characters POV, even with the epilogues, mostly having the same. You will find all kinds of shifters, bears, wolves, cheetah, lion, horses, lynx and more, even a bear motorcycle club, led by a polar bear alpha. Nothing is ever easy when trying to find your mate, for either the shifters or the women. Some of the women have stalkers, dangerous exes, even a hitman, and others have bad experiences and finding out who they are matched with makes them afraid and they block their mate! Just because the app has matched them doesn’t mean everything will be easy and no matter how hard their animals push for them to mate the women immediately, human females don’t know what mating means to shifters and that this means forever, especially if they have been spreading their oats before now, as some of the younger shifters do. A fantastic mix of stories, with even the maker of the Shifter Dating App finding her perfect match, but also having to go through a load of negative press from those who hate shifters and think them unnatural! Great fun to read each and see what hurdles they all have to overcome before they reach their HEA endings. I received an ARC copy of this boxset from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the books above.

In this world, humans and shifters have lived side by side but the human were unaware of the existence of shifters. The leaders of the shifter groups decided that because their numbers were dwindling fast, they had to come out in the open. There are very few female shifters and males needed their perfect match or very close to it to reproduce. It is hard to find mates when you are hiding your existence. Coming out into the open should improve their chances of finding mates. Natalie King wants to do her best to help shifters find a mate. She was the one who came up with the Shifter Dating app and the DNA compatibility test. Her app is matching up willing curvy women with loving passionate shifter men. However some people are unhappy about the matches being made.
This box set has all of the Shifter Dating App stories in one set which is about 11 stories. I haven't read all the stories yet but I have loved the 5 or so that I have read so far.

Shifter Dating App Complete Box Set - Books 1-15 - Sexy Shifters finding their fated mate
Shifter Dating App: A Complete Fated Mates Series is a big box set that contains all 15 books from the series. I had already read books 1-10 so grabbing this box set allowed me to read the last 5 stories. I love the premise of the series, a dating app for shifters that uses DNA sequencing to find their fated love. Plus for some reason I just love a good PNR dating app/matchmaking story. Each of these novellas is a fun and entertaining story with an older man/younger woman, shifter/curvy woman romance. With an earlier box set of the series which contained book 1-5 I had realized what I had missed by not reading PNR stories by the author....so I was happy to grab this complete collection and get to read the last stories.

I could be way off base here but the book reads like Chat GPT was a major contributing author. Most of the prose feels strange, like it was run through Google translate a few times, it mostly makes sense but is strange. Not at all what I would expect from a native English speaker/writer.
I apologise if I'm wrong about the AI help but the first 5 stories I read felt generic and weren't worth continuing. I'll also say I wasn't a fan of the premise that no humans wanted plus-sized women; like I get the 'shifters love curvy girls' trope but this went beyond the pale where all humans had some kind of anti-plumpness zealotry going on. Hope that can just get chocked up to the AI aggregate data lol

The whole Shifter Dating App is series bundled together in this boxset. Each story is a fast paced instalove standalone with some of them connected by more than just the app, i.e. part of the same clan, group etc. Each shifter finds his mate using the shifter dating app. The series has a nice selection of age gap, second chances, a little suspense and a whole lot of steam. Who doesn't enjoy reading about finding the one person that is perfect for you in every way?.

This was a fun set of short stories to read. It was a nice break from traditionally longer and more angsty novels. Most of the stories start have one party skeptical of the dating app, the female human not believing the shifter is her mate until the app proves they are, some drama involving the human or both characters, and end in hea.
The similar writing/formula got old after a few stories in. I felt the emphasis and defense of curvy girls mainly using the app was presented as both sides being ugly to each other, I really wish this had been handled differently.

Several Days of Good Reading.
I knew it was a set of stories, but hadn't paid attention to how many. Each had its own plot twist, but each was really interesting, just long enough. Every character mentioned had a place in every story. My favorite part, though, was the Short length of time epilogue, followed by a multi-year update to the couple's lives. This was so unique.
I could have done without the storyline. I was glad they had a story, but Twin Sisters would have been cool.

I cannot get enough of Erin Havoc! Luckily this bundle came along. There are 14 novellas in this collection about shifters seeking their fated mates. Each one focuses on a different shifter finding their mate through a dating app. This is easily something you can read for a while and then come back and read some more or reward yourself and read them all together!.

There are 15 short stories in this book. Some are better than others, but it is also how you relate to the characters. The concept is to match by using your DNA. You must go out with them at least once if you get a match. Do you think it will work? You'll need to read to find out. The stories also deal with body shaming, prejudices, and political issues, and there is a lot of steam.

Finding your mate is a beautiful thing!
Excellent series of books all about different types of shifters and their human mates. Everyone has a past, but when you find your mate, you make adjustments and do whatever it takes to make things work out. Also, if the person is your true mate, you can talk about anything without being judged about it. Having a mate is a beautiful thing! I wish it was really true.

Learning to accept someone different
First off, I would really like to find out that there really are shifters and that they are as committed to their mate as written about. Most importantly the message of these stories is so wonderful—acceptance of others not like ourselves. Isn’t that what we should be doing as non-shifters? Loved the message, the humor, the plots and twists, the steamy heat, and the writing. Thank you.

This is a wonderful set of short stories that showcase a new couple for each book. They all use a new shifter dating app and it matches the couples together, no matter how different they may seem to be. These stories are all fated mates romances, which I love, and I was greatly entertained following each couple to their HEA :D

This is a collection of shifter romances where the fated mates are brought together through DNA and a dating app. I loved that we got all the books from the series in one collection and how they were connected. From the instalove stories and fated mates to the drama and great story arc this is a wonderful collection. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

I read almost every book in this series individually, but missed a few. Go glad I grabbed this baby because it was amazing!! I love the heat, chemistry, drama, passion, etc as each couple gets their happily ever after. I can't pick a favorite. They are all beautifully written and make me feel like I'm emotional invested in their story. Love it!!
