Annnnnnnd ... I’m nuts about this audio! 😂 Seriously though, I have read many shifter romances but surprisingly never about a squirrel shifter. And I couldn’t think of a better book to pop my squirrel-shifter cherry! 😁 Two words, endearing and funny! 🥰
Nathan is a little squirrel shifter who’s been stalking Vince ever since he met him two months ago at the Bulksale he works at. He goes to Vince’s house in the mornings and in the evenings, munches and feeds on the nuts from Vince’s bird feeder while having the best view of Vince showering and relaxing free. 😏 Things were going great until our little naughty minxy squirrel was caught red-handed by Vince. Vince is definitely in for a surprise when he finds out the little chubby squirrel who’s devouring his nuts from the bird feeder is Nathan. But turns out, in the end, it was Nathan who was actually in for a very pleasant nutty surprise! 😉 (Pun unapologetically intended! 😂🤣👏)
I mean it was just so damn cute, fluffy and endearing. 💜 And Nathan was just precious!!! 😍 And Vince, LoL, he definitely has a thing for fluffy little squirrels. I just smiled and giggled the whole time when I was listening to this audio. 😁 And I think John Solo knocked the park out of this one with his adorable little squeaks and chirps. 👏 I admit that I never thought I would hear him chirping and indignantly squeaking so it was extra amusing for me. 😂 And damn, the steam of this little shortie, it was sizzling! 🔥🌋🔥 I can’t think of a better little audio shortie for some pleasant me-time. It was enjoyable until the very end. 😊 Just do yourself a favor and pick this one up ASAP. 😉 I’m already listening the second book in the series and loving it so much. 🥰

FOUR HEARTS--
Nope, it doesn't suck at all.
Let me tell you, Nathan the weresquirrel is ADORABLE. I am definitely #teamsquirrel #teamNathan after reading Kate Lowell's first story in the Nutty Romances series, "Nuts About You".
Nathan is a sales clerk at the local Bulk Mart. He has a massive crush on one of his customers, Vince. Sweet, chubby Nathan gets flusters when he is around the yummy man so he spies on the object of his eye. It could be considered stalking but who is going to report a squirrel? Nathan watches Vince and munches on nuts and birdseed in Vince's yard until one day fate steps in.
The story is light and funny. The nuts puns weren't stuffed down the throat and it wasn't an excuse to just have oodles of sex. There is a plot underneath the fluffy smiles. There is an erotic moment and we get to learn each man in this short story. I still wanted to know more. I liked the hint of shifter society the author began to introduce.
The story ends with a HFN and kind of earl (81%) but there is an excerpt for the next installment of the series which will continue with the world the author created. Since I know there will be more, I won't harp on wanting more. I hope the questions I have or might have have will be answered with future books.
I liked that Nathan wasn't the run of the mill shifter. And major points for him being "fluffy", we don't normally get chubby shifters. They're usually eight pack abs and chiseled faces with mega long dongs and ten feet tall. It was nice to have normal. Well, for a squirrel shifter who had normal human quirks and insecurities.
Recommended for shifter lovers who want something light and airy with funny (and not overly cheesy)

"So, a shapeshifter, huh?"
Nathan nodded.
"And you're a squirrel?"
Nathan nodded again.
"And you don't feel screwed at all by fate?"
"Huh?"
"I mean, shifters in books and movies are all werewolves and weretigers and stuff like that. It doesn't suck being a weresquirrel?"
Nope, it doesn't suck at all.

3.2 Stars - Chuckling fun and adorable "squirrel-cute"
*********************************************
Couldn't resist... — A M/M Squirrel shifter novella.
« Nathan's been crushing on one of his regular Bulk Mart customers for a while now. In squirrel form, he sits on Vince' bird feeders, munching on seeds and enjoying the eye candy. Until the day Vince notices him raiding the feeder… »
Ahwww! This was really fun.
A lot of squirrel and nuts jokes and some hilarious scenes. Short and sweet, a 45 pages $1-novella, but I had given it a higher rating if the shifter topic had been developed just a little more, and the long steamy scene slightly reduced.
A bit 'M/M-PWP' maybe but so very fresh and with a very charming inner dialogue. Quite irresistible honestly... ~ For lovers of quick, amusing, smexy steamy reading moments.

‘Or that marshmallow fluff stuff. Being somewhat fluffy himself, just hearing the word made his eye twitch in annoyance.’
‘... Not that it would make any difference tonight--he was already h@rd as a black walnut branch and worried his nuts would explode.’

I have a thing for squirrels. I just bought this for the squirrels at my new house.
I have not had the opportunity to see them use it though, something keeps stealing the corn!! Anyway…
I just think they are fun and so overly dramatic and they know how damn cute they are.
So yeah, I had to read this.

So, all my GR friends are probably going to think I'm, well, nuts but I actually enjoyed this novella.
Nathan works at the Bulk Mart. He's a squirrel shifter. Yes, I said squirrel shifter.
He has a crush on Vince. Every day he goes to Vince's house and watches him in the shower from the many bird feeders around Vince's yard.
One day, Vince comes out to run a squirrel out of his feeder and knocks Nathan to the ground with his shoe. Turns out, once Vince realizes the squirrel is really Nathan well, you can guess, sexual, nutty bliss ensues.
I hear the author's working on part 2. Bring it the nut on!

"I like nuts." He grinned up at Vince and let his hands drift down into the V at the join of Vince's legs. "All kinds."
But he couldn’t finish that sentence, couldn’t figure out the words to explain how the man’s eyes made his skin shiver and the sound of his voice made him feel happy and safe, like he had a warm nest full of good nuts to go home to at the end of each day.
I hear the author's working on part 2. Bring it the nut on!

This nutty story is goofy, adorable, sweet and sexy! Prior to this book I was a squirrel shifter virgin, not anymore. LOL This was such a fun read I just HAVE to read the squeakquel!!!!!

Cute, funny, though short - but I wouldn't really have wanted to read any more of it, it ended at the right point for me.
It's what I was in the mood for - a bit of silly fun. A heaping of 'Nut' jokes, stalking that'll make you laugh and an endearing, intrepid, fluffy Squirrel.
Pretty much a PWP with added nuts. Appears the shifters are more for the sequel. Nothing to take serious but fun while it lasted. Had me smiling.

OMG, that was ridiculously adorable and hot AF. I wasn't sure when I picked this for a BINGO read just what I was getting into, but Shin loved it so I figured, "What the heck" and dove right in.
Nathan was so cute with his crush on Vince and while the whole voyeur aspect of turning into a Squirrel and hanging out on Vince's bird feeders to watch from afar could be a little creepy, Kate wrote it in a way that was just so sweet & too much fun. I loved Nathan.
John Solo also did an amazing job with the narration. Sometimes his performances are a bit hit or miss for me (usually falling right into middle of the road, for the most part) but he really brought this one to life. I only listened to a minute or so of the preview for Book 2, but I already know I'll be listening. (I had to check the Audible listing because the one here at GR didn't have an audiobook edition and I wanted to be sure he was still the narrator...He is!)

Now this was cute!
Not a lot of background, but there could be more in the next book (this will be part of a series, no cliffhanger).
Nathan and Vince were great. I especially liked Vince’s reaction to finding out Nathan’s secret.
“So, a shapeshifter, huh?” Nathan nodded. “And you’re squirrel?” Nathan nodded again. Vince looked thoughtfully at him.
“And you don’t feel screwed at all by fate?”
“Huh?”
“I mean, shifters in books and movies are all werewolves and weretigers and stuff like that. It doesn’t suck being a weresquirrel?”
This is a sweet, short book about a squirrel shifter. Not a lot happens, but it’s sexy and cute and I really enjoyed it.

Oh Nathan, you are sooooo cute. SRAL was right, this was made for Unicorns to read and love.
The story is adorable and Nathan and Vince together are funny, sweet and pretty hawt. Nathan isn't your typical "perfect shifter specimen" and that's what made him even better. His human side has got some meat on his bones and his squirrel side has a little extra fluff to his tail. And, that is just how Vince likes him.
I would have felt cheated at the end (because I want to read more about them together and they were just really getting their groove) if I didn't know there was more coming. But since there is, I'll happily wait for the next one.

First "published" story I read after being in a book funk (I can only read fan fictions) for the past 2+ weeks ... and it wasn't a success. It was too stalkerish and voyeuristic for me that I couldn't find it cute or funny, like others did. Besides for a short story, it was pretty much PWP the half way through which didn't help its case in my point of view *shrugs*.

I loved this...
I bought this mainly because someone was looking up different shifters and shared the link and I saw the cover and couldn't resist.
Slight spoilers
This is a very short story, told in a single pov chock filled with squirrel humor and sexytimes.
Nathan has had a crush on Vincent from the moment Vince showed up at the store he worked at. He has also been perving on Vince in squirrel form for ages.
Not knowing that the squirrel was a shifter, Vince threw a shoe and knocked Nathan right out of the tree. This is how the sexytimes started and yall, I died laughing during that whole bit.
If nothing else, read this for all the squirrel commentary, it was awesome.

Audiobook reviewI dare you not to laugh while listening to this book.
As soon as I started listening to this book I knew I was going to love it. It had that quirky and fun vibe to it. We had Vince coming into the store to buy more bird food as a hungry squirrel kept earing it all – at least that’s the excuse he’s giving the guy selling the food. The cute guy, Nathan, he wants to see more of. Little did he know that the fore mentioned squirrel that frequented his feeders was in fact Nathan. Coming each day to checking him out – especially when Vince was taking his showers. Add in a thrown shoe, a squirrel that keeps falling from trees, feeders and running into stuff, and an accidental shifting and things will get interesting for sure…
It could have felt just a tiiny bit pervy, watching Vince in secret, taking showers…, but it never did. It all felt light-hearted and fun. And I just had to wonder about John Solo. His performance was epic. To the point where I wondered if he’d been a squirrel in a past life – or present one. Because he absolutely nailed Nathan and his squirreliness.
I had a great time listening to this book, and I need to know more about this couple. Nuts About You is the perfect listen for anyone looking for a fun and sexy romp. It might be a quick listen, but it’s definitely worth it.

4 Stars! Lots of squirrelly fun!!
This is a great book with fun characters who will capture your heart and make you laugh while reading their story! I loved Nathan's personality as he stalked Vince eating all the nuts out of Vince's bird feeders while watching Vince through his windows. It was funny to find out that Vince was frequently visiting Nathan's job not only to replenish his feeder supply but to see the sexy cashier!
“I thought you just bought a bunch of birdseed. Did you put in some new feeders?” “No, I’ve got some damned squirrel that’s started raiding the two big feeders, and I can’t keep them full.” “Oh.” Nathan’s stomach sank and a guilty flush spread across his cheeks. This wasn’t good at all. Because that squirrel that was raiding Vince’s feeders? That was him. “Maybe he’s just hungry?” he suggested hopefully. Vince snorted and shook his head. “Not likely. He’s fat as a seal and getting fatter. I’ll bet he’s raiding feeders around the whole neighborhood. Nathan’s cheeks heated even more. It wasn’t all the feeders in the neighborhood—just the two that gave him a perfect view of Vince’s early morning showers and of his living room couch, where Vince liked to lounge in nothing more than his boxer shorts most evenings. And fat? Nathan discreetly sucked in his gut as he rang through the rest of the seed. He knew he’d developed some love handles recently, but he didn’t think it was that bad. He flexed his stomach muscles again, testing. Maybe he should lay off the sunflower seeds for a while. But they were so good. “Everyone’s gotta live,” he said and smiled weakly up at Vince.."
The author was great at mixing comedy with romance and sprinkling sexy scenes like nuts falling from a bird feeder! Great book and I cannot wait for the next book!

Pure, unadulterated fluff with some sexy moments thrown in.
Nathan has developed somewhat of an obsession with one of his regular customers and has taken to watching the guy, Vince, in his home while in squirrel form. Vince complains to Nathan about the squirrel who's been eating all of his birdseed and he finally takes action, throwing a shoe at the squirrel and knocking him out of the tree.
Hilarity and sex ensue.
This is very funny, supremely cute, and I also found the sex to be quite well-written.
My only complaint is that it's way too short, but I definitely still got my AUD $1.36 worth.
Sexual content: blowjobs, anal sex (strict top/bottom)
Thanks to Janet for bringing this one to my attention!

Nathan is the most adorable shifter character I've ever read. His reactions in squirrel form are hilarious, and the romance is sweet. A nice bit of fluff.
January 7, 2016
I breezed through this cute little story that centers on Nathan, a squirrel shifter and workaday cashier at a big box store. Vince has been a regular customer for the past few months, coming in to purchase bags of seed for his many bird feeders. Nathan does a little bit of stalking, and a lot a bit of peeping on his crush.
Crashing out in his squirrel form, munching quality bird seed from Vince's feeders, Nathan revels in the lack of window coverings for Vince's bathroom and bedroom. It certainly feeds all his fantasies...until an irate Vince startles him from his perch and apprehends him!
I really liked the pace here, with little beating about the bush...Nathan and Vince are well on their way to enjoying more adult activity. The elements of squirrelness were adorable, and, as Nathan tells this tale, we get a whole lot of his nutty point of view. Okay, okay, enough with the puns already. This is a short read, perfect for a sexy lunch break.

February 7, 2016This was the most adorable story ever!
I am completely charmed and in love with "Oh My Walnuts", Nathan and his boy Vince.
Sexy and hella funny this was and SO not creepy at all though it's about squirrel shifters.
I love that there will be more of these two.
This was a short, sexy and sweet story!
Did I mention it was fun?
I'll just leave you with this...

I really enjoyed Nathan the squirrel shifter and his antics. This is a lovely angst-free romantic hook-up story with a lot of fun.
This cute and floofy story is also in the Forgotten Menagerie anthology from Storm Moon press. I haven't read the other stories in the collection, so I don't know if it's worth picking that up, or buying this one as a stand-alone.

Cute and fluffy short story about a squirrel shapeshifter falling for a human. It was really really really short, but (aside from the stalking in squirrel form) really cute and just fun!
3.5 stars rounded up because of squirrely cuteness!

Cute and funny squirrel shifter story. Very short, quickly and easily read. Maybe a bit too much sex compared to length, would have liked more characterbuild instead. But it was tongue-in-cheek fun, so I'll forgive the author and will probably get the next one in the series too, to see where teh couple go from here...

It’s super cute and the squirrel details are very funny, but it’s also mostly one long sex scene. I would still recommend it if that’s what you’re in the mood for.

This was adorable. Squirrel shifter, hint of exhibitionism, an awkward encounter turned sweet and fun. Would recommend!

This was fun. Sexy and nutty...I'll never look at peanut butter quite the same!

Nathan has been admiring Vince, one of his regular Bulk Mart's customers, from afar for a long time. In his squirrel form, he visits Vince's house daily, munching on seeds from his strategically placed bird feeders where he can enjoy the view. While Nathan wishes there would be more between them than just the small interactions at the store, he's too shy to do more about it, until the day when Vince catches him raiding the bird feeder.
This was such a delightful read! A short, fun and hot start for this series. I wish it'd been longer, but it was a lovely book, it's well written and it flows nicely and I really liked both Vince and Nathan. They were sweet together and I'm intrigued over what's going to happen in book 2 after reading the first chapter. All in all, a solid start to the series!
Rating: 4 Stars!!!
