Highest Bidder #2
Auctioned To The Grizzly Shifter
Grizzly shifters like me don't last long without a mate.
Not when your inner bear is a snarling rabid beast.
He's getting harder to control.
Every day, I feel my grip on him slipping.
It won't be long now until he's full on feral.
Then there will only be one option.
A bullet in the head.
The feral monster will have to be put down.
And he'll bring me down with him.
My mate is the only one who can save me.
But she's not here and I'm running out of time.
In desperation I go to an auction.
When I catch a whiff of her delicious scent, my bear nearly loses it.
And when I see her on that stage with other men bidding on what's mine, my bear wants to destroy everything and everyone.
I won't let him. Not this time.
She's mine to protect.
And those men are mine to destroy.
May the highest bidder win?
Screw that.
May the snarliest, vicious, most possessive man win.
Winning bidder or not, I'm taking her.
And I'm going to claim my mate.
The series where the Highest Bidder always wins.
Welcome to a one-of-a-kind Auction House where humans, shifters, and aliens bid on love.
These ultra-rich men are ready to bring home their virgin prizes.
Are you ready to join in and wish you were the one on the auction block?
Three standalone stories by best-selling steamy romance authors, Hope Ford, Olivia T. Turner, and Michele Mills. You've never seen an auction house like this!

Another hit from Olivia T. Turner! This bite-sized story is about Dylan, a shifter who's losing control of his bear. His family convinces him to go to an auction to meet a woman and get his mind off not finding a mate. He agrees to go. When he's there, he smells the sweetest scent... his mate.
I thought this was a cute little story. There was plenty of spice!
safety:
dual virgins
no OM/OW
no cheating/sharing
safe

Short but sweet. I liked it even though there wasn’t much of a plot. It was an easy read to pass some time before I dive back down into the rabbit hole of dark reads.👌🏼😅

The couple: Dylan and Lucy
Romance trope: shifter; auction
Series: Highest Bidder
Length: 86 pages
Plot: Dylan is losing control of his bear. He needs to find his mate, fast. But, even though he doesn't want to, he thinks that if he finds someone to spend the night with, he might buy a little time. So he goes to an auction that caters to everyone - human, shifter, alien, and when he gets there, he finds his mate, about to be auctioned off.
Commentary: Standard fair if you've read any of OTT's bear shifter stories. The one thing that didn't hit for me was the fact that Dylan was going out to find a woman to spend the night with. I thought that the bears physically could not be with someone other than their mates, not that it was their choice to not be with another woman. I didn't like that his family was so cold and rude to Lucy in the morning when they thought she was a random woman. How would it have been her fault that he betrayed his mate? But then when they found out she was his mate, everything was okay. It's the whole "everyone's a whore but the heroine" gambit, and I'm not a fan. But it was sweet that Dylan did find his mate - and just in time - and Lucy really needed someone to rescue her, so that was good.

El oso de Dylan está completamente descontrolado. A penas lo puede mantener a raya ni siquiera en la boda de su hermano. S tío le advierte que o busca a su compañera o sabe cuál es su final, la ira de Dylan va en aumento... COMO SI NO LO SUPIERA. Así que su tío le dice que vaya a una subasta de mujeres para al menos mantener a su oso distraído. Para él parece algo asqueroso y una perdida de tiempo, pero menuda sorpresa cuando quizás encuentre allí lo que más lleva deseando.
Ha sido tan dulce a su manera que raya lo absurdo. Me ha encantado igualmente para que mentir JAJAJJAJAJA. Como siempre macho alfa, amor a primer olor 😉 y final muy muy feliz. Para pasar el ratito está genial!

short and sweet - would have liked more plot
This book started off with both MCs in dire straits. Lucy was evicted and desperate for money and Dylan was close to becoming feral and needing to be “put down”. They meet at the auction and then everything is kind of rainbows and butterflies. It was sweet, but I would have liked some deep conversations about the stresses of their lives. But, since it was a steamy novella, it was mostly steam.
Spice: 5/5
Triggers: homelessness, power exchange

Lucy started off brunette with blue eyes and ended up blonde with brown eyes.

This is only the second Olivia T Turner book I've read. I'm enjoying this Highest Bidder series. The issues I had with the over the top ness of the other Olivia T Turner book I read felt like it made sense in this book because it was about a shifter and his fated mate.
Apparently I'm just fine with instalove, dual virgins, and OTT/obsessive when it comes to shifters and their fated mates. They are things that just don't fit in my mind very well in normal contemporary books. I loved it in this! I will have to check out more of the author's books about shifters. I enjoy some good smutty novellas in-between longer books.

Lucy & Dylan
I was contemplating if I should really give this Book 1★ but ... I just didn’t like it.
The dude is ... well your stereotypical almost rabid shifter guy in an OTT book, so no surprises there.
But once we get into Lucy's POV it just gets ridiculous. So ridiculous that I probably can't put everything in this review, it's honestly stupid.
She get's the eviction notice and the locks are already changed.
Then they initially don't allow her to get her dog. Then she gets the dog but can't get her stuff.
The Landlord says everything will be on the lawn the next day by 10.
Then she drags the dog into her car. Loses her job on the spot bc her boss called her complaining that she's late for the third time now. Then she oversleeps (even tho she has her phone to set an alarm) and her stuff is already stolen. Including her book with passwords so her bank account and credit card gets maxed out and then, when she gets to take a shower in a public bathroom her car gets stolen and her dog thrown out, who then runs away.
All that within a couple of sentences only to build up her "need" to sell her virginity at this "breeding" auction. It's so god damn overblown.
Oh by the way ... her dog runs off, she calls but then stops caring. Only at the end she enlists the help of Dylan to find her dog again.
He, by the way, is only at that auction because his uncle suggested him to buy a girl to sleep with in order to placate "his bear" because otherwise he would have to be shot. Okay.
How his uncle even has this connection to an underground sex trafficking ring (yes, that’s what it is if you look at the facts) is beyond me. Doesn’t get explained. Ooookay. Sure. Fine. I’ll accept it. Moving on.
See this Auction is a high end bidding war. Meaning a huge tent in the middle of nowhere with loads of limousines and a runway with private jets landing ... HOW IN THE WORLD did the uncle think that Dylan could afford one of these virgins?
I mean he must somewhat know the means of his nephew, no?
Anyway, Dylan sniffs Lucy, knows she's his mate, so Dylan bids on Lucy against someone else.
He gets the bid at $1,9Mio, which he doesn't have (he has "only" a couple of thousand dollars).
His opponent is pissed but the auction house owner sees how wild Dylan is and takes his money, weds Dylan and Lucy on the spot and they walk out.
Only to get followed by his rich opponent who wants to pay full price and gets killed on the spot by Dylan. Well he and his bodyguards get killed.
And no. There is no consequence. No investigation. No follow up after the murder happened.
It just does, they drive home, have some hand stuff in the car and have sex at home.
The home he lives in with his brothers and their mates.
Which brings me to these idiots.
They disapproved Dylans choice to get some random girl to sleep with that is not his mate. See, they rather apparently would see their brother shot than have him do ANYTHING that could help his bear. Because yes, killing him would have been the only option after a bear turns feral. Ffs Dylan’s bear almost ruined his brothers wedding my because it is almost too late for him finding his mate. They don’t care. They disapprove.
So much so that they are absolutely cold when Lucy walks into the kitchen with them all sitting in. They think she is the random girl Dylan hooked up with to calm down his bear.
They say hello, but only when Lucy mentions that she's Dylan's mate they all circle around her, compliment her hair etc. It feels so fake and pseudo nice.
I really didn't like anyone in this novella. And that is super rare for me.
Oh and by the way! Lucy's hair & eye colour even changed within the novel.
She get's described during the auction as having brunette hair with blue eyes but then she later has golden hair and brown eyes.
God damn, this is a novella it’s not that hard to, at least, keep your main protagonist’s features straight. 🙄
Yeah, so. This was all around not a good time.

Story: Dylan (H), a grizzly shifter, exhibits feral behaviors due to his inability to find his mate. He decides to go to an auction and purchase a woman to help stave off his behavioral problems. Lucy (h) is homeless, jobless and penniless when she decides to sell herself at an auction. Dylan scents Lucy and instantly realizes she's his, and even though he may not have the funds to support the winning bid, nothing will stop this grizzly from claiming his mate. Intensely hot and sexy shifter quickie!
Audio: The narrators did a really great job with this story. The audiobook uses a male narrator and a female narrator – I always appreciate when an author goes for the additional costs of having two narrators so that listeners can hear male dialogue with a male voice and female dialogue with a female voice. Tor Thom his nice deep and soothing voice does a great job with the tone he brings to Dylan, and other male voices, and Fiona Clare gave Lucy a voice that seemed to embody her, as well as other female voices.

Honestly...
This was not the greatest I've read from this author.
I just can't get over the fact that Dylan was willing to go to an auction to find a woman until he could find his mate. Now I will say that he says in the book that he was just going to get his family off his back...but if that were the case then why is it he had thousands of dollars on hand in his truck? You know just to get his family off his back right??
Another big peeve of mine.? With books this short I can't understand why it is that the author can't keep the description of the characters straight. First Lucy is brown hair and blue eyed (this is the description given when she's on the auction block) but then when she is will Dylan she's now a blonde hair and brown eyed goddess. *rolls eyes*

Wow! This story was short but man was it hot! Lucy is homeless and in desperate need of some good luck. Deciding to put herself up for auction is a last resort. Dylan is a grizzly shifter who has watched his brothers all find their mates. Little by little, his bear is going feral and unless he finds his own mate, things may get really bad. On his uncle's advice, he goes to the auction to at least find a woman that he can be with until his mate comes along, if she ever does. You know what's going to happen when he scents Lucy! LOL The story is hot and quick but I really enjoyed it! I was rooting for Dylan and Lucy the whole time!
September 8, 2022
Another fun and sexy read for OTT. I can’t seem to get enough of her brand of growly alpha. There’s just something about it that does it for me.
Lucy finds herself in dire need of money. Dylan is in dire need of his mate. Fate intervenes and bring these two together perfectly. I loved the feral nature of Dylan. It was tempered nicely with the sweetness of Lucy.
I quite enjoyed this quick little sexy read.

I'm not used to reading novellas but this was a quick read. Damsel in distress meets her not so charming shifter mate ^.^ There is a bit of a purity obsession, but the heat was there. If you want a HEA, it's definitely a good one.

The smut was hot as hell, and let’s be real, that’s what we’re all here for.
And thank for for that because the plot was too short to actually do anything that even remotely makes sense.
The auction is terrible, the fight scene even worse.
🤷🏻♀️ It’s a good thing I wasn’t expecting much here.

Really wish this one was a little bit longer. If you have read other mate books by Olivia T Turner then you know the deal. One mate universe with dual virgins and a growly possessive mate. I love her fated mate books; definitely my favorite type from her.

A bear on the edge of sanity...
And a woman on the edge of desperation.
It may not be the way most shifters meet their mate, but their first meeting proves just how strong their bond is. He saves her from ruin and she saves him from his crazy bear, soul mates, fated mates, forever.
I love seeing Dylan attempting to wrestle his bear into submission, the picture of desperation painted provides a very clear image of a bear on the edge.
A fun addition to the Highest Bidder series, I read this on Kindle Unlimited.

Bear raging
Quick read. The couple pairing and interacting was good.
The story of her sudden eviction not accurate but it gave the story some extra.

if all you are looking for is porn, not romance, this is your book
I like steamy romance but this was basically caveman-like, over the top, giant man-bear who must rut or go insane, tiny female that needs him to save her from homelessness,…porn. There was no chemistry.
The guy kills 2 dudes, shifts back to a human and kills a 3rd guy in cold blood when he could have disarmed him and the girl gets hot for him.
Then after he claims her with his giant 🍆, she goes downstairs to find his family there and they treat her like dirt until she says she’s his mate and it’s like a light switch and they instantly jump up, welcome her to the family and hug them both.
This is not what I enjoy reading even in an insta love book.

Dylan's is a grizzly shifter who has always had a hard time controlling his bear. His bear is very strong and demanding and tries to force his way out on his own. What his bear has been pushing Dylan about is finding their mate. Now that his brothers are now mated, his bear has lost its patience and is about to lose his mind. Everyday Dylan gets closer and closer to becoming feral. His uncle suggests that he distracts his bear to give him more time to find his mate. There is a place called the Breeding Bidders Auction House and Dylan can buy a woman there to distract his bear for awhile. Dylan doesn't want to be with anyone but his fated mate but he also doesn't want to force his brothers to kill him if he becomes feral. He is shocked the night of the auction to smell his fated mate. He will make her his even if he doesn't win the auction.
Lucy is a human woman who is very down on her luck. She has only been in town a couple of years but it was during the pandemic so she hasn't had much chance to make friends. She has fallen into debt and can only find a low paying warehouse job. She has been evicted from her apartment because of her dog and lives in her car. She gets fired from being late to work because her car doesn't have an alarm. The last straw is when her car and all her things get stolen when she is in a gas station bathroom. A stranger gives her a card and tells her if she is a virgin, she can get one million dollars for one night and her v-card. Desperate Lucy agrees to go to the Breeding Bidders Auction House. During the bidding she hears a deep growling voice bidding for her. He wins the auction and she sees a half man, half beast coming towards her. Instead of being terrified, she finds herself pulled towards him. What is going on?

listen, the idea was there, especially with the grizzly-shifter-type aspect of the story, but the delivery was nothing short of boring.
the number of times i had to endure "virgin-tight hole" or any other variation was one too many. even the smut had me dozing off— and that's the ♡sole reason♡ i'm even here in the first place, baby.
and the whole plot of her being sold to a crowd of filthy rich men? him literally k!lling a group of men out in the open and facing NO repercussions whatsoever?? and his uncle having ties to a bride-buying organization??? um??? ykw, we'll just not talk about that part.
pros
- they were able to get the dog back
cons
- "Pink cream covers my shaft and the sight of her virginity on me makes me feel like the luckiest man on earth." uh— PINK CREAM?? girl, bye. i laughed for a solid ten minutes.
