I received this boxset for Free to Give My True & Honest Review.

This is an amazing Box Set from two incredibly good authors! I have picked two of my absolute favorite stories to give you an example of how good this set is!
*** Reviewing ROOKIE SHIFT by Lisa Daniels *** Single mother Lisa Stark held her 3-year-old daughter, Melissa, promising she would always protect her. When the kitchen phone rang, she tensed up at seeing a blocked number. Her ex-husband, Paul, had found her once again somehow. He demanded she return his daughter. So she hung up as she and Melissa prepared to run again.
Melissa was numb from sitting all day playing video games. She had always wanted to be a cop, but the closer it got to starting her career, the more hesitant she seemed. She and her mom had always been on the move, but from what and to where they were running, she was never actually clear. She never did get those answers. Tomorrow she would be starting as a rookie in a very dangerous city. But for tonight, she and Cara would party at a local club. Unfortunately, someone pulled a gun! Melissa knocked Cara to the ground and covered her body to keep her safe; but as soon as the ruckus was over, she got away from the scene. It would not be a good idea to be here the night before her new cop job began.
Detective August Silas got a call and his sister, currently sleeping on his couch, threw his phone at him for not taking it with him when he went to bed. Sergeant Walker needed him at a club where a shooting occurred. He viewed the videotapes of the scene and, although the tech hadn’t noticed, August did… he saw a blond in a red dress spot the gun and instantly take her friend to the floor. That witness would have seen the shooter. He went back out to find her among the others being questioned.
Melissa met her Training Officer the next day. He was gorgeous, but she was so nervous she could hardly function. They got called to a possible hostage situation – back at the club she had run from the previous night! She phoned Louis, the owner, to see what the situation was and talked him into sending out the guy who caused the chaos of this police call and who had been the guy with the gun the previous night. But her TO was standing behind her and heard everything – this could most likely be the end of her career. But when danger from her past threatens, and August realizes what she is to him, will he be able to protect her? Will their lives be changed forever?
*** Reviewing CYPHER’S MATE by Mia Taylor *** The mystery begins as Cypher’s mother takes her 4 sons to an orphanage on a dark, rainy night when Cypher Maison, the oldest, was only 5 years old. She made him promise to take care of his brothers and she left them, for their safety. The reader only knows that they were in severe danger from their father. This would have a profound effect on her children.
Holly threw a pillow at sleeping Chloe, rejoicing in their first day as college grads! Holly and her boyfriend, Rhys, had a big surprise for Chloe!
Cypher’s bandmate threw ‘Rolling Stone’ magazine at him, noting that their band ‘Elevated’ was #1 for ten weeks in a row and their single was still strong! Cypher had been ‘discovered’ when he was 19, so the thrill was a bit faded now. His music was pure emotion, drawing in the crowd every time. With his good looks, the fans loved him. He just wished he could stop dwelling in the past and his strong desire for the family that he wasn’t able to keep together as his mother had asked when she left them at the orphanage . . . and he had only been 5.
The band was giving the last performance of this tour. But this time, it felt different to Cypher and he immersed himself in the love his fans were pouring out. He sang better than ever, and even his bandmates looked at him in awe. He felt he connected with someone in the audience, but he had no idea who.
Chloe tried to avoid the concert, the gift Holly and Rhys had given her. She hated crowds and didn’t want to go, even for her favorite group. But they had gotten backstage passes, and it was an expensive gift – she couldn’t refuse her friends. Backstage, she finally saw him! And he actually seemed to smile at her before the other fans swallowed him up. Holly tried to drag her forward to him, but she pulled away and ran outside for some air. Unfortunately, a guy was there and she felt uneasy. He moved closer and grabbed at her purse. In terror, she hung on and he morphed into a bear in front of her! Suddenly he flew across the alley and hit a brick wall, and she noticed a magnificent gray bear. He approached and his eyes met hers – and she recognized Cypher, right before she passed out!
When Chloe woke, she was on the couch in Cypher’s dressing room. He invited her and her friends to the party at his beach house, and surprisingly she accepted. When he kissed her, the sizzling electricity between them confirmed that he had found his mate! Could he convince her to trust and accept him? Could he protect her from what would be coming their way out of his past? Was it possible to find a happy future together?
These books will draw the reader into the story and the characters will come alive on the pages! The story lines are very good, and the reader will eagerly want to dive into the rest of these books!

This box set includes the first and one second book in series by both Mia Taylor and Lisa Daniels. My review is based on "Arthur's Mate" and "Dulce's Champion" by Lisa Daniels. Each with their own style, quirky and sometimes flawed personalities, and captivating plotline. Included in this box set are the following stand alone titles: 1. CYPHER'S MATE - SHIFTERS FORSAKEN 1 by MIA TAYLOR 2. ANNORA'S DRAGON - DRAGONS OF TELERA 1 by LISA DANIELS 3. ROOKIE SHIFT - BEARS IN BLUE by MIA TAYLOR 4. CALLIE'S GUARDIAN - WHITE TIGERS OF BRIGANTIA 1 by LISA DANIELS 5. THE WEREWOLF'S BRIDE - SHIFTER SAGAS 1 by MIA TAYLOR 6. MORDRED - NIGHT WOLVES 1 by LISA DANIELS 7. RESCUED BY RYLAND - DEEP RIVER SHIFTERS 1 by LISA DANIELS 8. BRIAR'S MATE - SHIFTERS FORSAKEN 2 by MIA TAYLOR 9. ARTHUR'S MATE - BEARS OF VALOR LAKE 1 by LISA DANIELS Having had enough of continually being put down, made to feel like she was crazy, and a suicide attempt, Emma decided enough was enough and ran away from her mentally abusive boyfriend and her irresponsible parents. What she found there was more than she could ever imagine. Although this was an easy read with a suspenseful storyline, I felt it was a little slow in the telling. I enjoyed the characters and their interaction with each other and especially got tickled over Grandma Jackie! All in all, a solid 4 review and one I'd recommend. 10. DULCE'S CHAMPION - JAGUARS OF BRIGANTIA 1 by LISA DANIELS Lisa Daniels has taken us into a world of the Magic and Unwashed of Good and Evil. The plot is twisted with characters so complex they pull you in making sure you don't miss a detail of what is being laid out. Dulce and Draven seem to be an unlikely pair until Dulce's innate goodness starts coming out and Draven sees for himself what everyone had been spreading rumors over. It's an interesting story for sure.

The Werewolf's Bride Desmond and Isadora were forced to marry to help keeps his secrets from coming out. Isadora was in it for survival and freedom. Desmond didn't know who he could trust in his own house and matters were becoming worse with all these new people coming in. The one person he could truly trust was Bridget to have his back even when she wasn't always forthcoming with information. I loved how George held the secrets to Clara's past and who and what she really was.
Rookie Shift August had no idea his life would be forever changed by answering a work call in the middle of the night. Melissa's upbringing led her to join the police force and it was her dream ever since she was little. August knew more about Melissa than she knew about herself and he wouldn't let her continue to run away from her life as her mother had taught her. Cara became someone August could trust and he knew she would always have Melissa's back. I can't wait to find out more about Paul and watch the secrets unfold.
'I received an ARC of this book and voluntarily reviewed it.'
This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. Shifter Eruption: A Paranormal Romance Boxed Set by Mia Taylor and Lisa Daniels is a collection of series reads that can be read as stand alone. You get Big Cats, Dragons and Bears in this anthology, a little something for everyone. I particularly enjoyed Mia Taylor's Cypher's Mate and actually went on to read the entire Shifter's Forsaken series. (Don't forget to read the Prequel - Fallon's Mate!) Here is a set of stories that guarantee hours of yummy romps with sexy shifters. Mature Readers Only please! Grab a copy and get ready to add a bunch of great reads to your TBR pile.
This honest and voluntary review was made possible by reading an advance copy from Booksprout.
I received an ARC of this set in exchange for an honest review. The books span Werewolves, Bears, and Dragons (oh My!) from the Pacific Northwest to fantastical realms of darkness. Several of the books dove tail into each other which is lovely! They are all so well written, the characters all so rich I am motivated to find the other books in the series'. I have read a number of books by Lisa Daniels before. Always happy with the stories and characters that she weaves. Mia Taylor is a new author for me. Her writing is a happy discovery for me! Her characters are smart, engaging, and the books were hard to put down! You won't be disappointed in this set. You WILL be looking for the rest of the books to finish out the stories!
Oh finally you get to read 10 books of Lisa Daniels and Mia Taylor. There is so much to choose from and if you've lived one of her series but don't know if you'd love another (spoiler - I know you will!) Then pick up this box set and then let the world go and .....yeah the world can go away for a while as you let yourself drift away, let the things that really HAVE TO BE DONE just not be done, cos lets face it itll be there later, let yourself just take a moment (or a load of moments) to appreciate all the hard work you do and reward yourself with some ME time. Go on, you deserve a treat don't you?!

3.5 stars
If you haven't read anything by Mia Taylor and/or Lisa Daniels then this box set offers a good taste for their writing style. With the exception of Briar's mate, these are the first book in a series (and most work as a finished story) so it is a good way to discover if which series you will enjoy. The stories range from fantasy settings to historical to modern settings, but each includes a major shifter character. If you like shifter stories than this box set has a good mix of stories for you to try.
Four and a half stars. This is a collection of ten stories from two authors I have come to enjoy. That being said, I was surprised that I liked all of them. Of the ten, I had read only one of them previously. Several of them are parts of a series and all of them are fine as standalones. They are all shifter stories but all are also different from the others. It’s a good book if you have to pick up and put down over several days.

Two awesome authors and one amazing box set! Each story is a stand alone and so can be read one at a time, but once you start reading them it’s going to be very difficult to stop! If you love shifters and alpha males, you are going to love this box set. These are great romance stories but there is a slight leaning to the dark side now and then. Although there are 10 stories the time goes by really quickly when you are immersed in the book. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Wow, I just love these books. I enjoy reading these books from Mia Taylor and Lisa Daniels. The price is will worth your money. We have the shifters that the girls just get them to do what they want. The guys are just Hot Hot! I had read quit a few of the books before the boxset so my individual reviews are on the individual books.

All these storied are part of longer series but will give a great insight into the individual series. All the books are paranormal romance with lots of action, humour, other worlds, great main and supporting characters. I have read them as part of the series they each belong to and would highly recommend this set as a starter. Then pick your favourites and buy the boxset series.

A really nice collection of shifter stories and their adventures. Some are just the normal kind, some are with a wonderful blend of epic fantasy. I read them before, but reading them again was like visiting old friends and wetting my appetite to read the series they belong to once more. They would be a good starter library to get a look as some fantastic series, to see if they are your style. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
This set has books from two of my favorite authors, Mia Taylor and Lisa Daniels. Each story can be read as a stand alone but are also part of a larger set. If you want a paranormal story with romance and lots of danger, then these are perfect. Several types of shifters and especially dragons. The hotness level does change throughout the set. But the the action never stops.

This was a great boxset filled with shifters of all sorts. Lots of great stories with wonderful worlds. It was hard to pick a favorite. Lots of action and adventure with dragons, wolves and bears who had great chemistry with their mates. I have read and reviewed Lisa Daniels books before and I really enjoyed reading Mia Taylors stories! Loved it!!
Wow! 2 of my favourite authors in a compilation! what more can a girl ask for?? Great stories and mix. Shifters in all sorts of scenarios and times! All you could ask for is in this compilation and it is well worth the read!

What a great set of reads. One to curl up with. They all have excitement, intrigue, suspense, emotional situations and so much more. I had so much fun reading these. Hot alpha males and females they want and love. I highly recommend this. I received a review copy and voluntarily review it.
Great shifter boxed set. Plenty of drama, suspense and steam in each of these stand-alone reads. The characters have great chemistry and the story will draw you in from beginning to end. Enjoyable read!
I love anthologies but I especially love hot shifters and the more the merrier. When reading the stories it is so hard to put down because you go from wolf to bear to dragon oh my.

over all this is a great collection of standalones and series beginners. Each book has its own twists and turns and makes for a great collection to turn to for a quick read.

Good collection of fast and easy reads. Each stands alone. Some are better than others but all are entertaining. I did read most of these individually but it’s nice to have them all in one book. (I voluntarily reviewed an ARC).
Each story was a good read. The only problem was that it was not an invite story. It lead to the next book in the series. Just read each story and forgot about the other stpry.
This is a collection of shifter stories by Lisa Daniels and Mia Taylor. They are first book series, buth the later ones are second and third books. All the stories are okay, but nothing spectacular; good for filling time.
I loved each story. They were able to keep me not wanting to put my reader down. I even got in trouble at work because I kept picking up my reader to read a story. Very entertaining. I even bought each book it was connected to. So my reader is even more full.
This box set took me quite awhile to read as I had to read the rest of the series after each story. I'm glad I have Kindle Unlimited as I ended up reading several box sets before this set ended.
A nice collection of selections from different series. Each book was different and enjoyable! Lots of author style variety, which is a good way to discover your next favorite author.
