Noah Harris is a 28-year-old bisexual man currently single and living in a small apartment in New York.
Being a natural introvert with significant extrovert tendencies he expresses himself through the world of writing MM books, often with a darker, paranormal twist. His books are written from the heart of his deep, sensitive and mysterious, but playful and creative, wild spirit.
Noah is dedicated to giving something back to the universe, sharing generously in his successes and inspiring and motivating others through his writing and in any other way he can. He believes in living a natural, healthy lifestyle and has embraced meditation as a way of clearing the 'noise' in his head and allowing his dark creativity to shine through in his books.
He is determined to reach out to as many readers, who he considers his 'friends', as he can through his unique personal touch and through building like-minded communities online. It is this personal touch, with his readers, that sets him apart from most other authors today.
This is almost a prelude to a new series and is certainly a very loose HFN ending.
I wouldn't class it as a menage. Two hunters who are not in a relationship per se end up taking a man they have both previously and separately slept with - it only happens once and it takes nearly the entire book to get to that point. Slow and introductory - maybe the next book will be more enthralling as it continues on with the same 3 characters by the looks of it.
*** Action, sex, and betrayal ! *** Shaun is big, strong, and chases his prey. Lucas, a smaller man with a vital superpower. Both men accept what they are doing, and know it's what they were born to do, and they excel at it. Their work partnership has a side benefit of sexy times, but there's no romance at all. The sex is hot, raw and dirty, unfortunately it is an "open relationship" with no feelings involved, not outwardly.
We get a hint from Shaun's thoughts, that he loves Lucas, but then a third, Nic, is introduced, and the bed hopping begins. Alongside the sexual tension, a bad apple has been killing without cause, and the men look into it; finding their orders are skewed. We are left with too many questions, so, to me, it's a cliffhanger.
I will be reading book two, because I want to find out how the guys progress as a menage. The story flowed and had an interesting plot, with action. ENJOY !
I love shifter genre. When I started to read this book the first thing I realized its about Hunters who kill shifters! Then realized it was not Menage. Ugh! The author should specify that in the summary.
A new series from Noah Harris and the first book is great. It’s reminds me of the TV series “Supernatural” by the two guys are not brothers. But they are both hunters that hunt the supernatural terrorizing the humans.
Shaun is the fighter with the brawny body of strength and smarts and his working partner, Lucas is the computer geek that comes up with the extra known resources and plans. It’s not that Shaun can’t plan an attack, he basically thinks of himself more to be the muscle and backup for Lucas; though Lucas is a fighter and killer also.
Shaun thinks all non-human creatures deserve to die, but Lucas can think outside that box it the creature is not hurting anyone, just trying to stay hidden and survive the hunters. So this is a big embolus between the two men; a constant for an argument. And let me tell you, these two can banter and bicker like an old-married couple! They do have sexual relations when it suits them, but they both do go out to find their own gratification elsewhere. I’ll let you decide what you think of their relationship.
When two fellow hunters are killer, Shaun and Lucas try to figure out what had been stalking the two brothers. The kill was with a gun and one of the brother’s own knife, so it appeared as if it was something supernatural. Even Lucas’s own power cannot decipher what it is that killed the hunters.
While Lucas takes to his computer to research, Shaun takes off for the bar and is approached by an attractive stranger and a night of drinking and sex. The next morning Shaun overheard some things he was not aware that his partner had been hiding and festers inside him.
Then they are on the run when someone broken into their room and they are the ones being followed. Noah brings us many twists in turns from Lucas’s sexual encounter with the same man, to Shaun’s truck being blowup! The man that has had sex with the both of them is Nic and he really likes to create a rift between the two already fighting men.
This is a really exciting book that kept me on my toes. I love the thought of Shaun and Lucas as having a real relationship and to me Nic is really a third wheel they could do without. But that’s me. I’m not big into threesomes, but Noah did do an excellent job in writing this one. Hopefully, it’ll turn out just to be Shaun and Lucas.
This is worth picking up and reading and would recommend the book to any paranormal lover. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced read copy of this book.
By the end of the first chapter, I wasn't sure I was going to like this book. What happened? I loved it. It is dark. Oh that is good. It is different. Add the heat between three hard-headed, close -hearted hot Alphas, what's not to love.
Fun action-packed PNR story with sex on the side. No romance. Human hunters had weird open sexual working relationship. Shaun was more emotionally attached to Lucas. Shifter Nic was the go-between match maker. Unfinished serial ending.

Summary:
"I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book."
Lucas and Shaun have been hunting partners for years. It was interesting how the divided up the assignments according to their skills and personalities. Shaun was the ultimate hunter who thought that you should kill all non humans without thought. This put them at odds because Lucas measured things at a case by case situation. The murder of a hunter team placing their lives in danger from an unknown threat. Lucas was the one to choose their assignments thus finding a way to prevent problems between them until Shaun overheard a conversation between Lucas and his friend causing a rift that changed everything. During their rift they separately meet Nic who seems to fill a need each need, but looks can be deceiving. In the paranormal world things are not always what they seem leaving Shaun, Lucas, and Nic fighting to find a way to survive.
This was an interesting story with fascinating paranormal aspects, but it is definitely not for the faint at heart. The erotic scenes are very passionate and graphic. It was wonderful to explore the growing feelings between Lucas and Shaun as they realized their feelings for each other. Adding a third could make or break things, but you never know what will happen when matters of the heart are at stake.
🔥🔥👬Can anything (even Shaun's beloved truck) come between these two and wrench them apart?!
February 4, 2018 👍👍This one is really well-written, suspenseful and full of testosterone and passion. Shaun and Lucas are hot enough on their own, but the introduction of mysterious stranger Nic amps the bed play up to scorching. I loved the way the author weaves mystery after mystery together. Lucas and Shaun are a buff Holmes and Watson combined with a twist of vampire slayer. Shaun's country accent and blinkered mindset on the eradication of paranormal beings is not exactly endearing, but it is a realistic attitude. It tests his relationship with work and occasional bed partner Lucas, who is the more sympathetic character of the two. Despite early tragedy in his life, Lucas maintains an empathy for others, both human and supernatural, that makes him noble. (though he does have a tendency to stomp off in a huff and avoid confrontation).
Though the story was taut and a bit dark, I really got a kick out of Shaun's love for his truck (no spoilers but a great piece of comic relief!). Be prepared for some intense fighting and frequent bickering (but the making up is so-o good!):-) 😜
I received a complimentary advance copy of this book from the author; this is my voluntary and honest review.
This book surprised me in a lot of ways, all good. First off the two main characters, hunters Shaun and Lucas, are human, although Lucas does have a sixth sense. The third character in the triangle, Nic, isn’t human but I'm not going to give the game away as to what he is. Secondly, I’m fussy when it comes to threesomes. I like emotion, particularly love, to play a big part. There is love here, albeit repressed, but it isn’t shared openly by all three men. Having said that I loved it, it worked. Shaun, Lucas and Nic are all complex characters whose multiple layers and intriguing backgrounds really drive the story forward. As a result the plot is tight and fast paced and kept me on my toes from start to finish. The premise of hunters who go after shape shifters is a lot different to normal shifter storylines, making the book more than a little intriguing. This book is the first in a series but the story stands alone well. The plot is tied up neatly but the relationship between the characters has still to be fully resolved so this is a HFN which leaves enough for me to really want to read book two. Note I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
Wow.. I loved this. The story has a great start that gets your attention right away. Scenes are written brilliantly as drama and the actions are well thought of. Loved the hot romance that happens between them especially at the end. Lucas and Shaun are team partners but they definitely had a special bond and love to argue like an ol married couple from over the years. The addition with Nic just makes them more so, but things have to be sorted first regarding to Nic. This has twists and turns in it that you don't know what's gonna play next. I loved Nic's character in this I definitely wasn't sure of him at first but he grows on you. The ending has an extra twist you'll love. This needed a better tittle, No alpha in this. Lucas and Shaun are hunters killing paranormal monsters anyway they could as a team, using silver or whatever they had was there best armour they have against werewolf and other things. Lucas and his headaches come with his cause of his super powers, yip not telling what they are, lol. Helping out the police with violent deaths kept in busy too especially if the victims are one of there own hunters. Nicolai aka Nic at a bar, and then meets Lucas.
Partners Lucas and Shaun, hunters of supernatural/ paranormal beings. Partners both in deep denial of what they want and need. Lucas a psychic who has been to hell and back. Shaun a hunter from child hood following in his family footsteps. Great as a team working off each others strengths. Fellow hunters are murdered and they seek to know what is chasing and killing fellow hunters (brothers Toby/ David). Enters man of mystery Nic, also a supernatural hunter himself. Partners meet Nic individually at different times and enjoy his company. After a serious incident occurs they all join forces together to find out who wants all these different hunters and supes dead. Won't tell or give more, every reader needs to experience this ending for themselves. This book was not what I was expecting after the cover art. It is still true you can't judge a book by its' cover. "I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book."
shaun and Lucas are hunters. Supernaturals who are a danger to society are their prey. They have been together for many years as neither as family so they are a family together. Lovers on occasion, they really don't know that they love each other more than as friends. Lucas has one friend other than Shaun and that is Ana. He considers her his other best friend. Nik is an assassin. His friend Ana gives him info and he goes out on the hunt. The three meet up and sexual sparks fly. Tension, betrayal, murderous intent, treachery, hot sex, and three men who are sexually drawn to each other, but tension, anger and jealousy marches along in their steps. a lurking hidden danger follows them. A dangerous but excellent HFN ending with a feeling that another book will be on its way. You won't want to miss this book. I voluntarily read and reviewed this ARC book.
What an exciting page turner. From the first page to the last I couldn't put it down. I must admit that I was a little hesitant at first to read this story because I 'm not too interested in the wide world of multiple shifters. M-preg non shifter M/M is as far as I can stretch my interest. But I have to admit, Noah Harris has written a thrilling and engrossing tale in this story. The addition of Nic, the clever fox spirit/shifter was a brilliant move. His personality was an excellent counterpoint to the differing moral outlooks between Lucas and Shaun. And the intimate moments between the three of them was HOT!! All in all I thoroughly enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next book in this series.
4-* Let put it right out there this is not a menage in the sense you would expect it to if you go by tittle alone. It is not a couple either. The MC's are teammates who hook up, and are non exclusive. Shifters are not sparred in this story. They are hunted and a character is not aware of his own shifter status. Not all information is put 'on the table' so enough plotlines for the following books in the series. They might become a ' traditonal' menage in the following books. The plot twists about trust, who dunnit and why where captivating. Despite not delivering what I was expecting from the description it was a nice surprise.
Audiobook: Alexander Collins for me has a good voice to listen to. I can gladly listen to more from him. 4* Overall: 4-*

This a interesting and intriguing book to read and I absolutely enjoyed reading it. What you will find in this book is: drama, suspense, action, mystery, danger, betrayal, murder, anger, jealousy, some humor, lust, needs & desires, romance and erotic scenes. The story-line and plot is well thought out and written and keeps the reader’s attention. The characters are well developed with personalities and moods suited to the situations they find themselves in. This is a well-written MMM Shifter Romance and I would recommend this book to people who like to read this kind of book.
I really enjoyed the story and the character development in this book and am looking forward to the rest of the series.
However, the book desperately needs to be edited. During Shaun's first meeting with Nic, he says, "My partner and I are in town, doin' some work." Several pages later, Shaun replied to a remark by Nic, stating, " Don't remember tellin' ya I had a partner. "
There were also numerous typos (such as hem instead of them) and grammatical errors.
These errors detract from the enjoyment of reading the book.
Spectacular fast-paced and very well written story. It will captivate you from the very beginning and will keep you on the edge of your seat until the end. The characters are wonderful, Shaun and Lucas, who are human, and Nic, who is not human. This is the first in this series so although the story itself is wrapped up nicely, you do have an HFN for the characters. Can't wait until the next one!

i love almost all of noah's work and this one just took the cake for me.. i love love love the hunters and shifters.. i loved the dynamics of this trio.. and i was pleasantly surprised on how well noah wrote this trio... im always a bit scared to go into the more partner books.. 2 people is easier to write.. 3 or more and it gets more difficult but he hit on their emotions perfectly to me.. it was amazing and im glad i read it
I enjoyed this journey the Noah Harris has taken us on. His characters are strong and very endearing. Lucas past is dark but his partnership with Shaun gives him strength. They both meet Nic at different times and they both enjoyed his company. They discover that Nic was sent to kill them for they are hunters and they kill his kind of supernatural being. They all get together and realize they have been set up. As they go on the hunt for the traitor they become a stronger unit. Looking forward to reading more of this series. ⚘⚘⚘
When "alpha" and "menage" are clearly a buzzword - and what's with the fox, dudes? Obviously some clueless publisher people being clueless publishing people...
The inside is what matters (once you get over the BAD cover and CRINGE title) and that one was good. I dropped the series at a certain point but it's definitely an interesting world and I do recommend you give it a try.
The first in a continuing story of Shaun and Lucas, a supernatural hunter pair. More is going on than they know which leads them to be the hunted. Shaun and Lucas are more casual lovers and the addition of Nic may break their partnership. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.
A thoroughly stunning narrative which jogged along seamlessly. The characters were well developed and had a realism about them. The story line was intriguing and full of depth.
Read! Read! Read! You will laugh, be waiting for the other shoe to drop! Love the craziness, friendship, love, fights and all the rest!! Sexy, flavorful, chef's choice!!! Voluntarily read for honest review. WTG NOAH!!!!
Nice Story. I enjoyed it very much. Interesting story concept with lots of angst. I would recommend this story to anyone who enjoys shifters and a mystery to solve.
DNF at 41%. I enjoy reading stories about shifters, not people who hunt and slaughter them. This story seems completely out of character for this author. That aside, I just could not connect with Shaun and Lucas, their relationship was not working for me.
