3.5 stars!
Totally here for this series. Predictable? Absolutely. Formula ridden? A bit. But sometimes predictability and smut is just what I need.

•Paranormal Romance
•Jaguar Shifters
•Why Choose/MMMMF (No ⚔️)
•Found Family
•Possessive MMCs
•Fated Mates
•Daddy/Dom/Sir (Light BDSM)
•Past Trauma
•Interconnected Stand Alone
•🌶🌶🌶
I fell yet again in love with these characters in this interconnected world. We are following Haven, who is finally taking a much needed vacation to visit her best friend Rylee, who has been her pen pal since she was in school (elementary, I believe). Rylee finally had the courage to tell Haven about her life, that she's a fox shifter. Obviously, that didn't change Havens mind about her best friend, her found sister. Then we meet our men.. Hunter, Bane, Remy, Lawson. Brothers who are Jaguar shifters. They all catch Havens' scent at Rylees fighting match. Every one of our characters have a haunting past, and they all heal each other in different ways. It was such a beautiful story and touched me in different ways. I seriously can't wait to read the next one in this series. I love escaping to the world that T.D. Edwards has created!

10/10 as ALWAYS!!
I have loved this series for a while now and I binged all the books that was out in the series until I couldn't. After that I had to wait for the book drops from Heath and onwards. I will say that the villian scenes in this aren't as strong as normal but the emotion and flow of the story wasn't hindered in anyway. I also get that you were writing in 5 different POV's so you were probably just trying to make sure everything was cohesive. Don't get me wrong. There are villains and there is family fight scenes like in all the books when the family comes together but to me it just didn't hit the same. But the emotion from the change near the end definitely made up for it. I've also started reading your other series and cant wait to find out who her sisters fated mate is who will unlock her magic inside of her. Thank you for your hard work and putting forward this beautiful work of art that I purchased at 1 in the morning and finished at 5 am lol. Can't wait to see what's next!

another amazing book
Welp, I just added 4 new book boyfriends to my collection :) I absolutely loved Bane, Hunter, Remy, and Lawson. They were each slightly bent, but not broken. The love, strength, bravery, and determination each brother exhibited when talking about their past was so well written. You could feel each emotion. They fought their way back together, but they still weren’t whole. Haven appeared in their lives and pieced them all back together. She was so strong, kind, and resilient. She saw their demons and loved them not in spite of them, but because of them. She recognized that their demons made them perfect for her. I loved how she stood up for them and herself. She opened herself up even knowing she could be hurt in the process, but trusting her mates enough to know they wouldn’t hurt her. The spice was fantastic, the plot was great, and the characters had me wanting to dive into the book with them. Will absolutely be a re-read in the future. 10/10 recommend

Hot Jaguar’s? Yes Please!
I am obsessed with this found family series.
This book emphasized how people can have such vast experiences after similar tragedies. Haven came to town seeking out her pen pal bestie Rylee after slipping away from her controlling father and cheating ex.
During a night on the town, she literally collides with her future mates…four jaguar shifter brothers and omg did the heat start right away! She is perfect for Hunter, Bane, Remy and Lawson. Each shifter has their own demons to overcome to truly be the ideal mate for Haven, and she herself being human has that and becoming a shifter to face.
This book made me laugh, cry, need a fan due to the utter intensity of the spice! Good lord 4 daddies…hell yes! Also, lots of meddling from “the family” which just adds to the topping on the cake! I couldn’t put it down and I know you won’t be able to as well. Enjoy!

This will be the last book I read in the series. The first few were good, a little rough but it to be expected with new authors. Now I am barely getting through them.
Most of this book, like the last couple of books, is constantly saying this is family, are shifter family is so great and now you apart of this family. A lot of the conflict in this book was them telling eachother about their past, then a quick scene where the confront their past abusers. This did have one twist in the plot where her other pen pal tried to kill her but it didn't make sense. Her pen pal is jealous and want to take over her life by sleeping with her father. Her father can have a girlfriend and a daughter, he didn't want the daughter just the paintings.
To sum it up these books are becoming great examples of telling and not showing.

Lawson 🥰
This series is my absolute favorite shifter universe. I look forward to each book. Haven flees her apartment after catching her bf cheating and decides to visit her pen pal who she’s never seen in person. I loved their sisterly connection and how it spanned over their childhood with letters and then later as adults with phone calls and video chats. Haven just rolls with all the info she learns about shifters within the first chapters. The moment Lawson (the most feral of her mates) scents her and stalks over to her pinning her back against the wall will live in my head forever. I’d reread the story just for that scene. I love the found family and supportive vibes of this community. I could read stories about this group for years…. Second gen!?!

Wow! This is the first book I have read by this author and I was not disappointed!! I have not read anything like this one before. It is a standalone in an interconnected universe but I could follow so easily. I loved all the side characters so I will be reading the RHs in this series next.
Now.. this book. Fated mates? Yes! Humans who can turn into shifters? Haven.. I absolutely loved her. Her men? Amazing. It is rare to find a FMC I love and I absolutely loved her even though my heart broke for her. The life she lived was not easy. The men had amazingly heartbreaking backstories that made me fall in love with them even more.
Great writing!! Can’t wait to read about the Panthers next!

So good!
This was such a sweet read. While there were a few different villains in the plot, this book was mostly about healing.
All five of our MCs have trauma, but once they find each other, that trauma is given permission to begin to heal. I loved the relationship Haven has with each MMC, and the relationships each brother has with each other.
Of course, it’s always heart warming and a great laugh when the rest of the family gets involved. I honestly never want this series to end.

Awesome Read!
Haven had been through it. As the story unfolded my heart went out to her. I loved the instant connection she had with the brothers. This one packed a lot and the surprise twist was a crazy one I didn’t see coming. Great job. I can’t wait for the next one.

I couldnt put it down
✨ Why I loved it: – Protective, dominant jaguar shifters
– Strong emotional + physical connection
– Steamy but still character-driven
– That addictive “found family / claimed” vibe
Perfect for fans of reverse harem shifter romance with bite and heart.

I have loved every single book in this series, and this one didnt disappoint, I would have loved more of Sally and her madness as there seemed to be less of the family in this one.
Now to wait for the next one!

10/10 will not stop recommending this series! Each book grabs you from the beginning and they’re quick reads. If you like Why Choose, protective mates, male & female, you’ll love this series! I can’t wait for the next installment!
