Alpha Rising by Julie Morgan is a true shifter story with so heavy emotional themes. Killian is raised by a blood thirsty father and he doesn’t want any part of it. He is really concerned about his brother Lucian because Lucian wants his father to see he could follow in his footsteps. Killian leaves the pack and meets Cordelia; his mate. Cordelia is the first born of her pack but can’t be the alpha due to her sex. Killian doesn’t want to be the alpha of any pack and has a hard time fighting the need to be with Cordelia and leading her pack. There are so many emotional true life stories running throughout this book i.e. abusive parent, sexual harassment, sexual inequity. Julie makes the journey in this shifter world a true love story. I loved it! I look forward to the continuation of this story. There are so many ways this story could end and Julie will make it a exciting journey.

Stories sure to heat up your evening
What an amazing collection of stories by some of my favorite PNR authors! Each one is full of characters that I just couldn't help falling in love with, and stories that I just couldn't put down. At the end of each book, I couldn't wait to see what the next author had in store for me. This is one collection of books that I am sure to read again and again.
Rearranging Fate - Roxanne Witherell
Fate is what you make it
This story is a fantastic addition to the anthology! I loved the strength in Shayla and the way she stood up for how she wanted her life to go. And Jaxon is her perfect partner, a strong alpha who leads with his heart but is not afraid to use force when he needs to. The author kept me on the edge of my seat with the action and danger as Shayla struggled for her independence and I couldn't wait to see how the story ended. But man was I sad to see it end. I don't know what the author has in store for us next, but I would love to see Onyx get a story of his own.
5 stars
Shadow’s Laughter - Margo Bond Collins
Shadow knows, or thinks she does anyway
This book is a fast paced read and fits perfectly with the anthology. I enjoyed the characters and the way Shadow accepted a change in thinking once she realized how important Jeremiah was to her. The author kept the story moving with plenty of action and I can’t wait to see what happens next.
4 stars
Doubly Claimed - C.D. Gorri
Just the right amount of bling
This book is the perfect foray into a touch of the forbidden! The author took the anthology by storm with dominant alpha males, even tempered omegas, snarky sassy mates and a vacation getaway that had me enthralled from the very beginning. I love the authors descriptions of the characters, I could imagine everything as if I was there, and I also enjoyed the overlapping journeys for the sisters and a hint of more books to come. This book is a quick read that was worth every minute of my time. I can’t wait to read the next book by this author.
5 stars
Marked by her Dragon - Julia Mills
Home to the one he loves
This book was over way too soon! I enjoyed the way the cousins bantered back and forth, and the way Macy and her besty were together. The author kept the story interesting with plenty of action and danger, and the emotions were at an all time high with the perfect ending. I enjoyed this story and look forward to reading more from the author.

Shark Bait by, T.M. Payne
Olivia has always been pulled to the water, so when her family moved to Virginia Beach she couldn’t be happier. Her Grandmother gives her a beautiful shark and mermaid necklace and tells her never to take it off. Then her grandmother dies, and her parents seem to be keeping secrets.
Then she meets a boy named Owen at her new school and it turns out that he too loves the water. Olivia and Owen grow close and spend a lot of time together. Then Owen disappears, taken by the sea.
Olivia misses him and dreams of him often over the years. ... then, when she is twenty five a couple of friends, Mark and Kelly take her on a boat trip... Olivia is in for a surprise.
This is a love story with twists, turns and secrets thrown in. It’s quite a ride and I do recommend this as the perfect summer read.

Wow! “Sultry Shifter Nights” is a fantastic collection of shifter stories! ... So far I have only read “Shark Bait” by T.M. Payne, which is an awesome, short, PNR must read with magic, shifters and romance, plus mystery. This unique plot has likable characters and some twists that will keep readers engaged and the pages turning! I only wish it had been longer coz I wanted more! I'll come back & update this after I can read more :) Even tho I volunteered to read this set, these are my honest feelings without any outside influences & I honestly recommend this to adult 18+ fans of fiction! Now I am looking forward to reading more of the other stories, too :D

This review is for Alpha Rising by Julie Morgan
A Paranormal Delight
Alpha Rising is an outstanding example of what a Paranormal Romance should be. This is definitely a gem.
Killian is slated to take over from his father as Alpha of the Wolf Pack. He refuses to take on the ruthless and barbarous ways his father dictates. Bloodshed is not the way to lead a pack. Killian flees to live the life as a rogue wolf and he abandons his duties as the next Alpha.
Cordelia is a fierce strong woman and will not bend to the rules that woman cannot lead a pack. She is not satisfied entering into a marriage with someone she does not love. She knows her true mate is out there in the world and she takes flight. As fate would have it, she finds Killian. There is a lot at stake if these two stay together. Killian knows his father will relentlessly pursue and force him to return to fulfil his duties. I am looking forward to see what happens in Book Two.

It has been awhile since I’ve read a paranormal read and let me just say Julie Morgan’s book Alpha Rising does not disappoint! I absolutely loved the world building and loved the depth to the characters. Killian and Cordelia were definitely interesting to read about. Killian is very opposite of his family and Cordelia while the first born of her family cannot be the alpha of her pack because she’s a woman. These two need to decide whether being together is worth the costs they must pay. Killian would need to be alpha which he doesn’t want to do.
This book is an emotional shifter rollercoaster of a book and I cannot wait to get my hands on more. Such a great book!

This anthology is full of amazing authors. I received an ARC of Alpha Rising by Julie Morgan.
Alpha Rising is a wild ride of so many different emotions. It's crazy how Cordelia finds Killian (her mate). I love how Julie can make me laugh out loud, swoon and want to punch someone all on the same page. This story does end in a cliffhanger and I can't wait to see what happens. I will say Killian's father is a real piece of work and I sure hope karma bites him.

I have been fortunate enough to be given an ARC of Alpha Rising by Julie Morgan.and an ARC of Marked by her Dragon by Julia Mills

What can I say you will go thru a rollercoaster of emotion with this one and it leaves you in suspense waiting on the next book. Good work Julie Morgan.
Marked by her Dragon:
This is another winner from Julia Mills she has written a fast paced story that has lots of action and some favourite characters.

3.5 stars. Most of these stories were quite short and a couple were just intros/beginnings of stories BUT there are a few complete stories and there are lots of them so that makes it a bargain to try out some authors you haven’t already read.
Some weren’t to my taste and that’s ok. All were well written and interesting.

Let me start off by saying a couple of things. One, I’m a total bear at heart. Also I like a certain type of woman and personality type. Also I’m a huge fan of Gorri’s. This novella was simply AMAZING! If doing the moonwalk and the kick worm wouldn’t make me lose street cred I’d be doing it nonstop! I related so much with Misha! Ross was also super cool and Ginger was my type of girl! Her sisters were also super noticeable and attractive and I cannot wait to dig into their stories! Those poor guys that they end up with are going to have a battle on their hands.... The sisters each had their own personalities but they were all freaks lol. Some acting on said freaky nature more so than the other two. I will let you find out on your own who is who. I wanted to smash Ginger’s boss, but as in all Gorri’s books I want to smash all of her villains. In Gorri fashion there is heated chemistry, snarky females and men oozing in machismo. All of the guys have great personalities except for the trash from New York that I want to punch. No one bad mouths my ginger! But I digress, ahem... pardon moi.. now, the story is short but oh so sweet and filled with lots of steamy passion and deep connection. I want to read more of this series and more of this clan. Think of it, a clan of mixed shifters ran by a Kodiak alpha and an elk omega... a clan filled with a mix of animals. That sounds amazing to me! I know any fan of shifter books and especially Gorri books will instantly gravitate to this series and love it just like I did. Grab it! Read it! Love it! Tell your friends about it and spread the tale of Gorri’s awesomeness! More needs to read this amazing authors work! This bear gives this novella 5 awesome stars!

The addition starts with the book cover….yeah…yeah…yeah don’t judge a book by its cover they say ….well we all do it and this one here it is the scratch to your itch or better yet the filling to your oreos! Speaking of filling…..wait, that’s for later. Within the first chapters you get the panoramic view of whom you’re dealing with! By the time you’ve figured out who is who and who to like and dislike, you’re already hooked, and you may as well give up the fight and prepare yourself for an all-nighter!
Can’t say I didn’t warn you.
(Believe me when I say you won’t put it down until the last page is read…you will find yourself getting upset cause someone called, texted or bothered you while reading this one, you will find yourself up at ungodly hours just to finish it knowing you have to be at work early (like 3am early) the very next day) YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
Doubly Claimed is a part of this set three sisters go on vacation to a secret hideaway for shifters. However, they do not know they are part of the females in the lot to become mates to alphas. The three of them know nothing about shifters and they have plenty of questions for her sister’s witch friend so will it lead to happy pairing of human and mate? Each one of these books in the series read as fantastic standalone books although I have some of them as single books but like the idea of them all being in one set. The alphas and the queens that bring them to their knees. Keeping you wondering where they are off to next, who will they corrupt next, so I suggest you get a nice warm blanket and a cup of your favorite coffee/hot chocolate because once you start you won’t stop until the last page of the last book has been read.

You’ll find lots of romance, drama, mystery, and suspense in these stories! But best of all is the wonderful variety, page after page, to provide something special for everyone!

An Anthology with eighteen authors contributing their own shapeshifter paranormal romance.
A great anthology of paranormal shapeshifter romances by some great authors. Each story is the product of the authors individual mind so the stories come with a very diverse range of story-lines so you may like a few or you may like them all. Great for those odd periods when you have a short break to put your feet up and read. Overall the stories are exciting and romantic and will keep you entertained but you may have trouble putting it down.

What an amazing collection of reads. Each one individually written and each one was superb. The storylines were super written and plenty of steamy sizzles around. The characters brought the books to life. Exciting collection

Since this was an anthology which included stories by many different authors, it’s difficult to give it an overall rating. Though I didn’t like every story, I did enjoy the anthology as a whole and would recommend it. I’ve included my review for each story below.
Rearranging Fate
By Roxanne Witherell
Rating: 3*
I enjoyed this story, though I did feel that it had a few problems. The biggest one was that the plot was not very original and, therefore, quite predictable. I found Shayla to be relatable and thought the characters in general were given a reasonable amount of depth. However, they were fairly one-sided; I liked the ones I was supposed to like, and didn’t like the ones I wasn’t supposed to like. I would have preferred a bit more nuance - perhaps with Griffin or Annabella? - where we’re given more insight and backstory about someone and are then able to understand them better and maybe even start to sympathize. But, that’s difficult to pull off in a short story, and it didn’t detract from my enjoyment.
Breaking Into Hell
By Terri A. Wilson
Rating: 4*
Though it was a bit darker than I generally prefer, this story dug its hooks into me right away. The pain and tragedy of the main characters’ situation really made me sympathize with them. There was a lot of backstory to both characters, both separately and together, and I thought the author did a great job of weaving that into the story in a way that didn’t feel like an information dump and that exposed the details as you needed to know them. Though this was a story about fated mates complete with a happy ending, the plot was so unique that I spent most of the time wondering how they would ever end up together. The one difficulty I had with this story was that it was pretty severely in need of proof-reading. Words were missing (both completely and - even stranger - sometimes partially), swapped for different words that sounded similar or had similar spelling (“matting” instead of “mating”, for example), and occasionally rearranged. It’s very disruptive when you’re immersed in a story, but keep having to pause to try and figure out what the author was trying to say with that mangled sentence. And in this case it was really a shame, because it definitely detracted from an otherwise fantastic story.
Imprinted
By Roxy Matthews
Rating: 1*
This story rubbed me the wrong way, for a few different reasons. I found the writing style to be a bit awkward. Things were phrased weirdly and it made it hard for me to follow. Nothing was really explained: there was little to no backstory for the characters, their motivations were completely unclear, and I was constantly waiting for explanations that never came. Blaire’s ability to push her thoughts into others’ minds made me very uncomfortable, even when she was using it to “help” people. No one should have that much power. While the hyenas certainly weren’t saints, I thought they were somewhat unfairly vilified.
Tank
By Crystal Dawn
Rating: 2*
I found this story to be a bit lackluster and confusing in a similar manner to the previous story, Imprinted. The writing style was very simplistic and matter-of-fact, but unclear sometimes. There was one instance where the point of view switched from third person to first and back, but other than that, there weren’t a lot of glaring errors. However, I still think this could have used better editing for clarity. Most of my confusion was because there were a few key things that were never explained. Ultimately, there didn’t seem to be a whole lot going on in this story. We aren’t given a lot of insight into the characters or what they’re thinking, and I found it hard to care much about what happened to them. There was a lot of interaction with side characters (such as Ariel, and Tyne and Moe), who we’re told nothing about, but who the author seems to assume we know. The ending might have bothered me more , if I had cared much to begin with.
Anna’s Bear
By Dena Garson
Rating: 4*
I liked this story a lot. It hit all the right notes of a shifter romance for me. Honestly, my only request would be for a little more sex? (Haha, stop judging me :P) I enjoyed this author’s contribution to the anthology Furever Free, as well. I’d love to read more of her stuff , but sadly, it doesn’t look like she has a lot out there.
Shifters, A Curvy Girl’s Guide
By S. Cinders
Rating: 4*
I was really enjoying this one, right up until it ended on a cliffhanger, argh! I liked the writing, though the editing could have been a little better. The plot, at least the part we got to see before it was cut off, was original and interesting. The best part, though, was the two main characters and their relationship. Their love/hate dynamic reminded me of one of my all-time favorite TV ships, Starbuck and Apollo from the more recent Battlestar Galactica. I’ll definitely be on the lookout for the rest of this story.
Kai
By N Gray
Rating: 3*
I liked this story, though it didn’t really stand out. The plot was based on a pretty standard shifter romance storyline, but the author managed to take it in some new directions. The characters were reasonably well-developed, and I wouldn’t mind reading more stories set in this world about others from this group.
Shadow’s Laughter
By Margo Bond Collins
Rating: 5*
I loved this story, but it was way too short! It was so well written, that I wasn’t surprised to find out that the author used to be a college English professor. There was clearly a lot more going on in this world than just what was depicted here, but we’re given enough of the details to understand this story. Hopefully, there are other books out there already, or in the works. My favorite part of this story was the chemistry between the main characters, which was scorching! I really need more of these two, have I mentioned that yet? I’d also love to get more stories set in this world, in particular telling how this conflict between the hyenas and the wolves gets resolved.
Shark Bait
By T.M. Payne
Rating: 1*
I found this story to be somewhat frustrating. The editing was mostly okay, although the point of view switches from third to first person a few chapters in for no apparent reason. The writing seemed very unfocused and would sort of meander between events, either without an obvious point or seeming to forget midway through what the original intent was behind the recounting of that particular incident. I’ve heard the advice that writers should “show, don’t tell,” and I definitely did not feel that advice was heeded here. The main character complains that no one explains anything to her, but I had a hard time sympathizing. She makes no effort to ask her parents or to try and figure anything out for herself. Honestly, I thought she was kind of stupid. In her memories from when she was 13, it seemed like she acted and her parents treated her as if she was much younger. Even when she was older, she continued to act very naïve and helpless. In addition to disliking the main character, I also thought the plot fell a bit flat. I’m not sure what the point of this story was.
Shades of Shifter
By Kate Nova
Rating: 4*
This was a great story, which I enjoyed quite a bit. I appreciated the skill the author had in storytelling. She unfurled the details of the main character’s situation gradually, which made it feel like I was experiencing the events as they happened. The premise of this story was original, but was only a framework really for how the relationship between the two main characters develops. I would love to read more books by this author, and more specifically about what comes next for these two (along with Gideon’s sister and his pack).
Marked By Her Dragon
By Julia Mills
Rating: 2*
This wasn’t a terrible story, but it was a bit difficult to get through. It was very dialog-heavy and there was clearly some established history for at least some of the characters. The problem was that that history was established somewhere else. The dialog was half full of references to characters and events you don’t know about (if you haven’t read those other books, which I assume exist), and half repetition of the same points over and over again. As a result, it was hard to follow what was going on because the relevant details were either left out when it was assumed you'd already read those books, or drowned under all the (largely unimportant) banter between the characters. Yes, the banter does help illustrate the relationships between people, but I think this story could have benefited greatly if the dialog had been scaled back quite a bit. I’ll probably avoid anything I come across from this author in the future.
Mystical Mayhem
By Kiki Howell
Rating: 3*
I didn’t feel very strongly about this story one way or the other. I enjoyed the main and immediate story (of how the main characters meet and get together), but the blurb suggested that some bigger war was brewing and that never seemed to fully pan out. I wouldn’t mind reading more by this author if I come across it , though I probably won’t seek it out.
Alpha Rising
By Julie Morgan
Rating: 3*
I liked this story well enough, though there were some aspects I wasn’t crazy about. The plot wasn’t terribly original, though the details helped differentiate it somewhat. Unfortunately, the story was incomplete and ended in a cliffhanger, so I can’t say what I would have thought of how they ended up resolving the situation they were in. Anyway, it’d be nice to get the rest of the story.
Accidentally Forever
By Gina Kincade
Rating: 3*
I liked this story, and honestly, it didn’t really have any major problems. The plot wasn’t super unique; I’ve seen similar storylines , but not very often. The characters were decently developed and I liked that the relationship involved two guys and one girl (I need to read more fantasy and sci-fi reverse harem / ménage). So why not four or five stars? It’s hard for me to put a finger on it exactly, but I guess I felt like a lot of the context and background never got fully fleshed out. It was like a painting where the subject was complete and in-focus, but the background had large gaps. Furthermore, the ending seemed rushed and incomplete to me. Basically, we’re never actually told how the main conflict of the plot gets resolved, only that it is and it’s all good. As I said at the start though, I didn’t think any of this was a major issue. The story focuses on how the relationship develops between the main characters, and I enjoyed it.
Craving Her Mates
By Erzabet Bishop
Rating: 3*
This was a good story which, if I was trying to be completely objective, probably deserved four stars instead of three. There were a few factors, however, that were kind of a turn-off for me personally. It was a bit darker than I’d like, very intense and serious, and took place in the BDSM scene, which I’m not very into. None of this automatically had me deducting a star, but for this story in particular, the BDSM bit was very important to the main character’s identity, the personal issues she was working through, and her relationships with her mates. This made it hard for me to relate to her, and to understand what was driving her. As with the previous story, Accidentally Forever, I did enjoy that the woman had a relationship with two men. It was also well written and edited, with a fairly unique plot. I’d definitely recommend it, since others without my particular hang-ups are likely to enjoy it.
Doubly Claimed
By C.D. Gorri
Rating: 4*
This story was short (but not too short) and fun, and I liked it a lot. As with the previous two stories, this one featured a relationship between two men and one woman. I really enjoyed the partnership between the two men, and how they complimented each other. The author did a great job of developing the backstories and depth for the main characters, as well as the world this story takes place in, in a short amount of time. The writing and editing weren’t the best, but the storytelling made up for it. I will definitely be looking for the other two stories in this trilogy to see how things turn out for Ginger’s sisters.
