Aiden Chava has known he was gay for as long as he could remember, but his parents never accepted him. So, after counting down the days until he could leave their home and be himself, he moved out in search of a place where he belonged as soon as he turned twenty-one. Not knowing where else to go and lost in the plethora of people he never knew if he could fit in with, Aiden becomes a paramedic, devoting his time to taking care of others.
Darius Rayne is a werewolf who never knew his real parents. Being born from the union of a man and woman from rival packs, he was never accepted by either. So, the abandoned baby was left to be found by the leader of a band of rogue misfits roaming the streets of Santa Monica. Like the rest of his newfound family, Darius vowed to never grow up or fall in love.
When the two men meet, an attraction is clear, but with both of their histories, could they just be two lost boys passing in the night? Or could they form a bond they never had with anyone else?

So badly written it's offensive. I cannot remember the last time I saw info-dumping and telling to this degree. This has never met and editor and if it did I want to know their name and avoid any book they ever looked at.
I've read quite a few shifter books, but this one gripped me from the start. It was magical.
Aiden never really fit in. His parents let him stay at home after he came out, but they made their disapproval known whenever possible. When he moved out and was on his own, his father made sure he couldn't keep a lease or a job. Then, one night he was driving home and hit someone on the street and it changed his life forever.
Darius is a wolf shifter. He's convinced himself he'll never be in love, which is perfect for him. He lives with his friends, parties at clubs, and doesn't need anyone. Until he meets his mate...
I loved the Peter Pan aura that surrounded this story. Darius and his roommates, together the Lost Boys, consisted of three wolf shifters, a Nephilim and a pixie. They all contributed so much levity and fun to the story as well as support for both MC's.
The relationship between Darius and Aiden felt real and emotional. Packed with heat, the BDSM element was done expertly with open communication and rules, which is always a plus to this reader. I loved the dialogue between them and the ease of affection as their relationship played out.
Highly entertaining, fun and witty. This was a great read and a perfect start to what will most likely be a great series!
I've been waiting for what feels like forever for this book. Darius and Aiden are so cute together.
Forever Lost And Found is a book about love, friendship, and found family.
I wanted to hug Aiden so hard. The things his parents put him through is harsh. He deserved all the love in the world.
Darius is the perfect person to give Aiden the love he needed. He might not have been looking for a relationship or love, but he understands what it's like to feel abandoned. Darius might have grown up with people who cared about him, but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand. He built a family for himself and has no hesitations with taking Aiden under his wing. Even if he's skittish about the relationship thing.
Luckily these two don't spend too much time brooding over each other. Their connection doesn't let them. Nor do their friends.
For his first solo book, T.N. Nova hit it out of the park. All the characters are well written and I want to get to know all of the members of Darius and Aiden's family. The story is fun and full of love. It's well written and I devoured it.
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I love a great paranormal read. Notice I didn't say shifter. That's because this is a mix of different types of paranormal beings. Then you have another surprise thrown in. Seems this series is going to deliver on many levels. If this is how the author starts it off, I can't wait to see what they have in store for us next. Sexy and surprising, this was one heck of a romance.
I absolutely loved it! I couldn't put it down! It was a joy to read. The laughter, the joy, so much I can relate to. The banter had me laughing and smiling. The love between Darius and Aiden, so beautiful. I can't wait for the next book!
Wow just wow. I love Aiden, I want to wrap him up and give him all the love he’s never had before. As for Darius he’s so strong, gentle and caring. It’s beautiful watching the chemistry unfold. The emotions, the laughter make this book a great read. I loved this book and cannot wait for the next one.
I only made it half way thru and I should’ve stopped sooner. I couldn’t finish it. Badly written, cardboard characters, and the parents are just too unbelievably “villainous”. I was 65% in and didn’t give a shit about any of the characters or even know them. Reads like teenage fanfic.
*3.5* This is an enjoyable start to a new series and I love the variety of characters that we are introduced to within the pack. Aiden and Darius come from two different worlds but were fated to meet and come together. I felt their connection and it was heartwarming to read their relationship develop, even through some of the tougher times when lack of communication causes trouble and Aiden's parents cause him pain. We're given a good amount of history for each man to understand why they are how they are towards others/relationships. There's a real family feel amongst the men in Darius' pack of misfits and they bring fun and love to the story. There wasn't the biggest plot line to dive into making it an easy read but I like the way it draws you into the characters of the pack. I'm interested in Reece, Orion, and the twins and what's in the future for the group. Recommend giving this new series a go and I look forward to book 2.
Beautiful paranormal story of finding yourself and your mate. i so enjoyed the delightful characters in this story. The world-building was really good and i totally enjoyed seeing the combination of wolf shifters, human, an incredible pixie and a delightful Nephilim. These characters all bring something really special to the story and as a reader we become invested in each of them.
Excellent story-line with writing that flowed. The characters were well developed and lovable! Darius and Aiden have an intense connection and they bring out the best in each other. I loved that Aiden, with Darius's support has the strength to follow his dreams. Aiden's parents; actions in this story really made me want them to suffer some negative karma.
This is the first book in the Forever Series and i am excited to read the next one.
T.N. Nova's Forever Lost and Found is the first book in the Forever Series. The world created within these pages is beautifully crafted and captured my interest from the start. The characters are well written and full of life. Aidian and Darius are great and so are the supporting cast of characters. The story is entertaining and keeps your attention. Fun, sweet and incredibly sexy...This series is amping up to be really special, filled with wonderful characters like werewolves, pixies, and other supernatural beings and themes. I can not wait for what comes next.
I received an advanced reader's copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving my honest review and recommendation
What a FANTASTIC story!! Sooo worth the wait!! Everything about the lost boys is touching. Aiden is human, rejected by his parents when he tells them he's gay. Darius is abandoned by his parents at birth. When these two meet, it's like the 4th of July!! The attraction can't be denied. I'm sooo looking forward to the next book!! These are amazing characters and I can't wait to see who will fall in love next. This is the introduction to what I believe, is going to be a unforgettable, fantastic series. T.N. Nova is a up and coming author who I know has all star potential!!! I HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK!!!!!
This is the first book of this series and it has hit the ground running wonderful. This was a wonderful story written and did have some emotional times. There was a huge surprise within the story that I did not see coming, but Karma is a Bitch. There are wonderful characters withing the story that would love to see more of in the next book . Maybe carefree Reece who is almost always floating along. If you love to read about different type of paranormal then you will fall in love with this book
I am in love with this story What a great read Loved the way they met and fell in love Would love to know if the rest of the crew will have their own stories Best one yet cant wait until the rest come out TN Nova thank you i enjoyed this one so very much
I just finished it and I'm already looking forward to reading book two. I absolutely loved Aiden and Darius, who knew love could come at the end of a bumper 🤷♀️🤣. Aiden and Darius were great characters and i liked the other 'lost boys' too, I'm hoping their stories are coming.
5* - very very good and rare (it would be a Blow- Away-book like ‘Jesse's Smile' or ‚Joey’ from Angelique Jurd, ‘Save the at he kids' series from EM Leya, ‘Love’s Tethered Heart’ from C.L. Etta or 'Liberty' from Seth King), it's like an A+
4* - very good and will be often reread and is a WOW-book with interesting plot and surprises (like most of Andrew Grey’s books) it's like an A
3,5* - a really good book, which will be reread a few times a year (most romances where you can enjoy for relaxing and during waiting times in hospitals). I can recommend them definitively! It's like an B+
3* - it could be more then a one-time-reader, maybe 2-3 times a year. It’s like a B
2* - it was ok to read, but it's more a one-time- reader (i wouldn't recommend it heartily, but it was ok). It's like a C-, D
1* - sorry, but that isn't really a book for me (too many mistakes, not nice plot, illogical, so an absolut NO-GO). It's like failure in the whole line, dismissed, repeat the class
The story is an okayish. The book didnt really grab me as the book has alot of narrative telling their story rather than the characters doing it for us. Aiden's parents are nasty as they sabotage his life continually. This has a bad twist at the end that was meh. I really had hopes for this to be less narrated than the authors previous books. More blog between the characters esp at the start is needed I thought. Aiden was disregarded at 16 for being gay to his parents. Now he was a paramedic and dreamed of being a singer and is about to be homeless. Darius's wolf senses were feeling spidery at something going to happen but what.. They both had Reese (a pixie) in common. Orion was the nephilium of the group and a Dom along with Darius 25 yrs. Zander and Maximus both twin wolves. (KU read )
This book worried me at first. I absolutely hated Aiden's parents and the way they treated him, and I was annoyed that Aiden kept being surprised by their evil ways. When Aiden met Darius, the shifter was hot and cold toward him. I worried I wasn't going to like or be able to relate to either character. However, once the two men became closer, I really enjoyed their relationship and the way Darius quickly became Aiden's biggest supporter. They were sexy together, and their conversations were emotional and sweet. I also liked the other paranormal characters who made up Darius's chosen family, and I'm looking forward to learning more about each of them. This is a good start to what promises to be an interesting series.
T. N. Nova is a new author for me and I have to admit I am so glad to have found this book, having always enjoyed shifter stories, it was a well written fast reading story that grabs you from the first page draws you in and holds you till the last page because you have to know how it ends. Sometimes you just have to wonder why your families are the way they are and for both Darius and Aiden they were horrible. Darius was lucky enough to be taken in as a child and build a family of his own, and when Aiden's parents finially succeed in ruining his life, it causes a series of events to happen that will evolve into a love so strong that it will last a life time for both of them.
This is a great book that starts off a new series. Darius and Aiden are wonderful characters with incredible chemistry and I'm so glad they found one another. Darius is exactly what Aiden needs, even though neither one was looking for a relationship, they are perfect together. They each have their reservations but I love how they work through everything together. Can't wait for the next book in the series, I love the whole gang that was introduced in this story. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book.
This was a great start to a new series. I hated the way that Aiden's parents treated him, especially his father. But I think, in his case it was anger out of envy...I won't say more and spoil for other readers. Aiden and Darius needed each other...They both needed that deep accepting forever love that comes a mate and a family. This book was very well written and with just enough backstory on the other characters that it leaves you wanting to find out more about them.
I loved the beginning. We were introduced to Aiden a young gay man struggling with his life. His parents were uncaring and contemptuous. After that the book fell into the same werewolf love story trope. It is disappointing. There was no true angst and the ending was as expected. Three stars are given as I liked the book up-to hitting Darius. Other than that it was uninteresting.
Lovely book with great characters, leaves you wanting to know the others stories, Aiden and Darius made me route for them, my only downside was some parts seemed rushed, but all in all a lovely book that has me waiting for book 2.
I took forever for one conversation to play out. It was annoying that I had to skip paragraphs just to get to the point. The story had some potential but came up lacking.
