Wolf shifter romances
A good set of quick reads, all following on from each other, with action, drama, surprises, humor, ermine antics, protective wolf shifters, faeries, fox shifters, fated mates, romances, second-chances, twists, love and HEAs.
1. Big Bad Mate
Thorne meets Iris when trying to 'free' a young shifter from his pack from a wildlife rehab centre. She runs the centre and he has an attraction to her which he can't resist, but he knows it must be temporary as he needs to find his fated mate before he turns 30.
Iris likes to see the good in everyone and believes in second chances. She starts a romance with Thorne but when they get some unexpected news she's shocked by how he turns on her.
Can Thorne's brother and pack help him to realise how he's messed up and will he get his second chance?
2. Fated Enemy
Evander is Thorne's beta and has been smitten with Briony since she returned to the pack, but missed his chance with her. When she splits with his best friend Evander wonders if he might have a chance but having always been grumpy and rude towards her in the past it won't be easy for him.
Briony loves her work but after splitting with her cheating ex she's starting to consider moving. When she's asked to work with Evander on a project she finally lets her feelings known and he begins to question what he's been told by his best friend. But before emotions can be discussed they need to resolve the issue of the fox shifter refugees, which is causing upset in the pack.
3. Her Fake Mate
As punishment Zander is tasked with keeping an eye on the fox shifters to make sure they don't have any more trouble. To try to help he suggests to Mia that they pretend to be mates (so the foxes are more accepted and possibly to make the wolf he fancies jealous); but what starts as fake soon becomes a lot more for them. But is it real for both of them?
4. Exiled Mate
Terra is mourning Rylan being exiled from the pack a few years before when he was accused of something; thinking that the one who would be her mate is gone for good. Though she doesn't realise he's been keeping an eye on her all this time from the shadows, trying to find a way to prove his innocence.
When he saves her from an attack their attraction for each other gives him a renewed reason for clearing his name. But with only a month before his 30th can they manage it, or will he lose his ability to shift and his chance to be with his fated mate?
5. Lost Fate
Ember has always felt a bit of an outsider and after leaving her best friend Terra and her mate one day she feels drawn into the woods where she finds a wolf under a fallen tree and realises it's a shifter. She doesn’t recognise him and when he wakes with short term amnesia she start looking after him. As they spend more time together they become close but as her strength becomes evident and his memories come back Leander finds himself in a position which could spoil their growing romance.
6. Fated Secret Baby
After a misunderstanding Calista had left Orion and Oakwood and moved away for five years. Now she's been convinced to return, with a secret that she wants to confess to Orion. He's fed up of having to negotiate with his mum. Though she's always at him to find a mate, he just wants the one he lost, and to find out why she left him. Can they have their second chance?
7. Off-Limits Mate
Amara has had a crush on her brother's best friend since they were teenagers and has always split with her boyfriends because they weren't him. But with her house damaged due to flooding she's having to live with Nolan again and is worried about her feelings as he has Jasper coming to stay with them.
Jasper is fed up with the music industry and is visiting his best friend while he works out what he can do; but he wasn't expecting the beauty who opened the door to him. Nolan's sister has changed since he last saw her and his feelings for her change in an instant. They had grown up together, having all lost their parents at a young age to trappers, and he offers to help with her house as he has nothing else to do. Spending time together he no longer just sees her as Nolan's little sister, but how will he react when he uncovers her secret as he's already promised Nolan he wouldn't make a move on his sister?
8. Fated Guardian
Coral had fled to Colorado and been allowed to claim her meadow by the Oakwood pack after her family were murdered by lion shifters. But when Alpha Thorne senses that she might be in danger again he assigns Nolan to patrol the meadow and protect her. She'd sensed him on her boundary with the help of the plants and just knows that she feels safe with him.
Nolan finds himself drawn to the faerie he's been tasked with protecting; and has no problem with his assignment, enjoying the chance to get to know her better. The more he's with her the more he's sure she's his fated mate, but can he protect 24/7 with all the shifters trying to get at her?.

WOLVES OF OAKWOOD is a collection of eight interconnected stories by Vera Rivers. Ms Rivers always brings us characters to love or hate wrapped in storylines that keep you turning the pages. I was drawn into this series from the beginning by the captivating characters and a plot that left me wanting more.
In the first story. BIG BAD MATE, Alpha Thorne recently relocated his pack from Alaska to Colorado to begin a new life. Thornes' first big problem is that he needs to find a mate soon or step down as Pack Alpha. Unfortunately, the only woman he has shown any desire for is human and pack laws prohibit mating a human.
Do much happening in these stories with one main theme throughout the series. If a wolf shifter doesn't find a mate by their thirtieth birthday, they lose the ability to shift. Even the Alpha isn't exempt from this event and by default their place as Pack Alpha.
Follow the men and women of the Oakwood Pack as they fight to preserve their new home and find their mate in this boxset of eight stories.
I enjoyed each of these stories and although it is part of a series, each story can be read as a stand alone, but better read in order. I recommend this series to anyone that enjoys romance and wolf shifters.

The characters from each book are well developed and beautifully executed throughout their respective stories. Each book is beautifully written, well balanced and perfectly executed by Vera Rivers. Vera Rivers continues to show what an incredible author she is with each book that I have read by her so far. I would HIGHLY recommend this collection of shifter romances for anyone to checkout and give it a read. I’m looking forward to reading more amazing paranormal romances from Vera Rivers in the future.

The Wolves of Oakwood: Shifter Romance Collection is a set of 8 stories that each star a different set of main characters and the challenges they each must face to get their happy ending. The drama and intrigue and trouble was a blast to read. I laughed and groaned and rolled my eyes at times but was entertained through the whole set.
