Shifter Lords #8
Goddess Shifting
When you strike a deal with the fae, make sure you read all the fine print…
After nearly draining herself to save Rowan, Evie has called off all training to get some much-needed rest. Once again, the universe has a field day with her plans.
Evie thought she was the last living female Chimera.
She's wrong.
When a baby is dropped off at the shop, Evie has no idea how to react. As she searches for the parents, it quickly becomes evident the child is no human or fae. She's full-blooded Chimera, meaning there are at least two others out there like her.
But why would they give her their baby? And why is Evie thinking about keeping her?
Talk about throwing a wrench into her already complicated life.
As Evie and her friends search to uncover the mystery surrounding the child, other forces swirl around them, attempting to unbalance Evie and derail everything she's worked so hard for.
Once again, everything is changing, but Evie finally knows who and what she wants.
It's time for a fae bargain, one Evie hopes will finally bring her into her destiny.
Will it be a happy ever after, or is this just the start of Evie's final downfall?

Wow just wow!
I feel like we’re just starting to see the big picture and somewhere behind the scenes there’s been a puppet master pulling all our strings. Evie and Rowan, Moira, Ash, Tess, her parents everyone’s been fooled. I’m not sure where this ride ends but it’s been a doozy of a journey so far. There’s action, romance, twists, shocking surprises and we’re not done yet. I could not put this down and now I cannot wait to see how and what Evie uncovers in the next book! 10/10 absolutely recommend!!

A lot of drama, and happiness. I love this series especially since every story continues to surprise me and something unexpected happens.

fabulous storytelling, my favorite yet
Rating:4.75 ⭐️
Babin has done it again and written yet another new favorite in this fabulous series! With each new book and additional storylines, this character of Evie develops into someone who is stronger, more confident in her own abilities, and able to move forward with a future that’s full of potential for love and happiness.
A very hard fought battle, one that’s still ongoing here.
Goddess Shifting sees Evie, with enormous support from her family and friends, make huge strides forward in healing the wounds and trauma from her past experiences, including her toxic relationship with Caelan.
Rowan, her father and mother, Moira ( who honestly needs a side story or two), and now an adoptive Chimera baby who plays a new emotional element between Evie’s trauma and in the ongoing battles with other species targeting Evie.
Rowan and Evie will go further in their journey, and this ends on a happy note. Love this story! It’s so well written.

Review of advance copy
We pick up where we left off with Evie, Rowan, Moira, and the gang. SE takes us on a roller coaster in this one! Many of our faves (& maybe some of our less than faves) go through some major challenges. Relationships are changing for our lead, her Bestie and our other side characters. I like that this time we see more into the thoughts of the other characters as well, including one of the lesser known Lords, Ethan. I’m picking up on some foreshadowing here and I’m super excited about the spinoff that was mentioned on fb for our friend Moira! Not only are there relationship changes, but there’s a baby and a war! You will really be on the edge of your seat until the very end, but it’s a very satisfying ending. I can’t wait to see where we end up next!.

Review of advance copy received from Publisher
Every time I finish a book by this author, I am so frustrated because I want the next one immediately, and I have to wait. We are back with Evie, Rowan, Moira, and all the rest of the gang, but poor Evie has so much to heal about and so many enemies, even ones she doesn’t know are her enemies. I don’t want to say much because I don’t want to spoil anything, but I can say I am very intrigued about the start of a new relationship, and I definitely want to see more of that, too. This book is so darn entertaining, engaging, well-written, and just so much fun. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

That was sooooo good. I need more, like now.
That was an amazing installation to the series. I can't believe I read through it so quick. Now I have to wait for more. Okay, dear author, I would recommend some really quick writing skills, no sleep, and lots of coffee to help move that process along.
The action, romance, and let's not forget some heart breaking moments. I really wished some things would have turned out better but there's that saying, it's better to have loved than not. Life teaches us all hard lessons. It's whether we learn from them or continue to do the same things over and over again. Stupid Calen.
And most swoon worthy alpha ever, Rowan.

Well, I’m caught up. And boy am I going to have a book hangover now. I read 8 books in about a week. And this author has a new fan. This series is just…WOW. If you told me in book 1 who was going to wind up the big baddie I would have laughed and maybe not kept going.
What a storyline ARC. As I have said before…this series was wild. The combination of wit, banter, magical beings, great characters, not so great characters and the battles welp it was truly epic. I can’t wait until the next book. I have so much I would like to say but I don’t do spoilers. But man I love this series. What. A. Ride.

Seeing how this seems to be the penultimate book in Evie’s arc of the series, it did read like a final book at times. I love seeing how Evie is flourishing with Rowan, and the addition of a certain little person really set the cat amongst the pigeons in regards to secrets, lies and betrayals. I enjoyed this book a lot, and the final confrontation and consequences for a certain ex was just 😙 *chefs kiss*.
Can’t wait to see how this all works out in book 9 ( before it seems to spin off into a Moira-centric collection of book)
4.5 stars

This is one of those series that you will never get bored or want to stop! Each passing book brings more excitement, more drama and I find myself hooked and glued to the pages. Evie thought she was getting a break in this book but it turns out the universe has other plans. There’s challenges to face as relationships change and flourish and there’s some heart breaking moments. Action packed, intriguing this is an incredible addition that leavies you eager for more!

Yes!
It started slow and then exploded into action and new discovery. I've loved this series and have been grateful for each novel. I do sometimes wish the author hadn't stopped her other series without a conclusion. But I know that there is an ending coming next month, so thank you and please never stop. Your FMC are the best.

good
I am glad to visit Evie, Rowan, and and there friends. Evie is trying to learn how to use her magic, but is not having a very good start. While she is trying to learn more about her magic, she is also learning more about Rowan. I will definitely read the next book in the series.

This one was better than the recent couple. Still had errors and things I wasn’t a huge fan of, but better.
