Review - Rebel Lion (Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire #3) by Anna Lowe



by Anna Lowe 


Lion shifter Dell O'Roarke has never been serious about life, but life is about to get serious with him. The beautiful stranger who's just arrived in Maui isn't just looking for anyone -- she's looking for him. And that's not just any surprise she's brought along -- it's a baby who looks a hell of a lot like Dell. Soon, he discovers there's more at stake than his lifestyle as a swinging bachelor. Vengeful shifters are hot on the stranger's heels, making Dell wonder... Are they after the woman, the baby, or him?

Ad executive Anjali Jain hasn't taken a vacation in years -- and she sure isn't on vacation now. She's simply keeping a promise, and then she'll get back to climbing the corporate ladder. But there's nothing simple about taking care of a baby -- or handing that baby off to a handsome, mysterious stranger who feels like a long-lost friend. Easygoing Dell isn't her type, but the more he reluctantly reveals of his hidden, soulful side, the deeper she falls in love -- and the more mysteries she discovers. How can one man possibly awaken so many lusts and desires at the same time? What evil forces lurk behind the brutal murder of her best friend? And why does she have the feeling there's something not quite human about the murderers -- or about Dell?

Rebel Lion is a fast-paced, emotion-packed paranormal romance filled with sizzling passions, hot alpha goodness, and irresistible characters. Ready to be swept off to sunny Maui's suspense-filled shifter side? Get your copy today!

My Review

This book started out on a sad note, Dell reliving his brother's death and I wondered where this story would go. I have to say it was a great read full of emotion, romance and of course some mystery and danger.

Dell's character is developed through the book, his sweet and tough and has to prove to his pack he can handle his new situation, and I found him rather wonderful. Anjali, she is a workaholic, her friend's death has put her in a position of responsibility, a trip to Hawaii is going to be a mini-break in the sun and an adventure she hadn't planned.

I had half expected Dell and Cynthia to get together at the beginning of the series as they really fire off each other, it's going to take a big man to take on Cynth!

These books always have a sizzle factor in, but in this book we have to wait longer for the bedroom scene as the story is pretty full.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

These books can all be read as standalones, but knowing the other characters that appear adds an extra dimension to the world they live in.

Review - Rebel Bear (Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire #2) by Anna Lowe




Rebel Bear (Aloha Shifters: Pearls of Desire #2)



Up-and-coming supermodel Hailey Crewe can’t wait to escape the limelight and return to the modest, anonymous lifestyle she once led. Escaping literally? That was never part of her plan. But when an unwanted suitor — and her scheming mother/manager — go a step too far with a surprise Hawaii wedding, Hailey becomes a bride on the run. Before she knows it, she’s not only being hunted by a greedy oil tycoon, but by his creepy security force, too. A good thing she bumps into her very own Lancelot at exactly the right time. 

Bear shifter Timber Hoving is just another Special Forces vet slowly adjusting to island time. That is, until an irresistible stranger rushes into his meticulously organized world. Before Tim knows it, his human side is wrestling with temptation, and his bear is head-over-heels in love. But Hailey’s first encounter with shifters is a terrifying one, and Tim can’t reveal the truth about himself without losing her forever. Worse, sinister shifter forces are closing in, following a ruthless agenda of their own. They’ll stop at nothing to capture Tim’s destined mate — dead or alive. 

Rebel Bear is a fast-paced, emotion-packed paranormal romance filled with yearning, sizzling passions, and forbidden love. Ready to be swept off to sunny Maui’s suspense-filled shifter side?



ARC REVIEW

Diving into book 2 of this series, I was excited to see the shifters again. 


The start of the book had me so angry at the stupid man putting a Hailey in a difficult position and then making it worse by chasing her. Luckily Tim the bear shifter was around to lend a hand, and start the journey of you guess it... fated mates.



This book was very sweet, it had a good storyline, passion, lots of emotions along with a mother that needs telling to butt out, in the nicest possible way of course.



I really like Hailey, she knew what she didn't want, and soon learns what she really wants and it has fur. Tim isn't high in the pecking order of shifter world and has to follow orders to an extent, but when it comes down to mates, the rules go out the window.



An entertaining, warm and furry read with passion.



4.5 stars

Blurb

There’s not much that can get this grizzly shifter worked up — except a threat to the woman he has secretly loved for years. Then all bets are off, and he’s willing to risk anything — including the most closely guarded secret of his lonely shifter soul.

ALOHA SHIFTERS: JEWELS of the HEART is a thrilling new series set on the tropical shores of Maui. Each story is a page-turner packed with action, emotion, and romance! If you like Magnum, PI and smoldering hot, alpha shapeshifters, you'll love these books!


* No cliff hangers. Each story is a standalone paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect read for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves and shapeshifters, billonaires, military romance, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, fantasy romance, and exotic, tropical locales! *



My Review

This series just gets better, I have to say this is my favourite so far!

Hunter is a bear shifter and has know that Dawn the sexy and strong Police officer is his mate, his known for years but his a bear shifter and she is a human it could never be.


Dawn is a heroine you will like, she loves her work as a police officer, she is pulled to Hunter and is inquisitive to the set up at the big mansion. If you are reading books in order (recommended) you will know Dawn had a shock at the end of book two, and has been avoiding the tempting Hunter ever since.


The was something different about this book that made it my fave of the series, maybe the fact that Hunter and Dawn had a history, so was more build up. Their first time together was delightfully sexy, and I loved reading about these characthers.

Aloha Shifters New series from Anna Lowe - Book 1 Lure of the Dragon


by 

BLURB

Aloha Shifters - Jewels of the Heart: Book 1

Good dragons? Bad dragons? Twenty-four hours ago, private chef Tessa Byrne didn’t know about the terrifying world of shifters. Now she knows too much, like the fact that a ruthless dragon lord is determined to claim her — forever. Tessa flees to Maui, where sunny skies, swaying palms, and a handsome stranger conspire to play tricks with her heart. Can she truly trust Kai Llewellyn and his band of battle-hardened shapeshifters to save her from a gruesome fate?

"Don’t trust a human, and never, ever fall in love with one." Those are lessons Kai learned the hard way. But Tessa is different. Her emerald eyes mirror the mysterious pendant she wears, and her flaming red hair makes his heart race. Is his inner dragon just greedy for a new kind of treasure, or is Tessa his destined mate?
 




ARC REVIEW

Set on a beautiful island with some beautiful men/shifters.

I thought of doing a statement/joke like 'what do you get when a wolf, dragon, bear and a tiger meet in a bar' - an entertaining start to a new series -but they don't meet in a bar they live in a book and in the book they live together and know each other well from serving in the forces - but sod it leaving it in! 

I loved the mixture of shifters, something for everyone. the author has given each a different personality, to tease us into wanting more. 

Kai is hot - literally hot, he's a dragon but he is also hot looking too as are most shifters. He recognises his mate straight away.

Tessa is running from a scary shifter. she is scared but settles quickly into the shifters home. She's a fiery charatcher, doesn't like being told what to do. She feels connected Kai.

Okay its fated mates, so feelings move quickly. 

It is not the longest of books (200 pages) so can read in one night if you're like me.

I enjoyed this story and the setup for future books.

Will be adding book 2, wonder which shifter it will be about!

Review - Redemption: Reckless Desires (Blue Moon Saloon Book 3) by Anna Lowe #soren #recklessdesires #annalowe #shifters




Redemption: Reckless Desires (Blue Moon Saloon Book 3) 

by Anna Lowe 


Book Blurb

What will it take for this weary warrior to redeem his lonely soul? 
Bear shifter Soren Voss lives and breathes for the new clan he leads as alpha. It’s all he has left after the rogue ambush that murdered the woman he loved — the woman he swears he’ll always love, even if it’s only in his dreams. But the day his dream comes true is also the start of a nightmare, because his destined mate may no longer be his and his alone. Is it fate’s way of torturing him or his last chance at redemption? 

Sarah Boone narrowly escaped the inferno that claimed her family and her home. For months now, she’s been on the run with a secret that will soon be impossible to hide. But the clock is ticking, and she needs a place to settle down soon. She never expected to find the love of her life running a funky little place called the Blue Moon Saloon. He’s darker and more dangerous than ever, but somehow more vulnerable, too. Does she have it in her to be the woman her world-weary warrior needs most of all? 

Behind the doors of the Blue Moon Saloon, alpha shifters confront their darkest fears and their deepest desires. Each book is a complete standalone story — no cliffhangers! 

* A paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect read for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves and shapeshifters, red-hot cowboys, romantic westerns, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, and fantasy romance! *



MY REVIEW

Soren has featured through all the other couples stories, so his book has been building slowly. In the end of book 2 Soren got a surprise the love of his life was alive and well, very well indeed, she was pregnant - his bear did a happy dance, but the man stormed off. 
Sarah was presumed dead, even though I expected her to appear at some point. She is a really nice calm characther, she is scared, she's being chased by a group who want to hurt her but doesn't really know why. She's arrived at Blue Moon saloon and its the safest place for her to be.
Soren struggles to be near her to begin with, but with Jess and Janna mooning over her its an impossible task keeping away, she's in the cafe, in the bar, in the apartment and now in his office!
Sarah isn't pushing herself onto Soren, she wants to press her body to his but just doesn't quite know how he feels.
Sarah is his mate so its only a matter of time until they finally get together.
I really enjoyed this book, Soren the big moody bear gets his women and I'm happy about that.

Temptation (Reckless Desires) by Anna Lowe - Review




Blurb

His darkest fears...her deepest desires. 
She-wolf Janna Macks knows trouble when she sees it, especially when it comes in the form of an irresistibly broody cowboy like Cole Harper. Her fledgling pack is already in the cross hairs of a ruthless group of rogues, and falling head over heels in lust with a human will only endanger her loved ones more. The problem is, her wolf knows her destined mate when she sees him — and Cole is it. 

Rodeo pro Cole Harper has never felt this off-kilter before. One minute, he’s lusting after Janna, the spunky waitress he can’t get off his mind, and the next, he’s growling at a dark inner voice demanding all kinds of crazy things — like howling at the moon and claiming Janna as his own. There’s only one thing stronger than the overwhelming need for Janna, and that’s the fear that without her, he’ll succumb to the strange inner beast wrestling for control of his haunted soul. 

Behind the doors of the Blue Moon Saloon, alpha shifters confront their darkest fears and their deepest desires. This book is a complete standalone story that ends with a strong hook to the main character in the next book of the series. 

* A paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect read for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves and shapeshifters, red-hot cowboys, romantic westerns, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, and fantasy romance! *



My Review

Janna met Cole in book 1 and it was obvious she liked him, but his a human so there's no future there not if she wants peace, as the pure blood squad always seem to be about to spoil someone's happiness.

Jess and Simon from book one are totally loved up and it's very cute, but this book is about Janna. Janna is finding it harder to keep away from Cole, she cant understand why? Cole is going through a tough time, his moods are all over the place and his feeling very possessive over Janna, his always liked her but this is something else.

I loved book 1 and I loved this book too, Janna is a good character and Cole is her perfect match and the story of how they get together is a read you will enjoy.

The link to book 3 is totally annoying as I'm now desperate for to read it.

Damnation: Reckless Desires (Blue Moon Saloon Book 1) by Anna Lowe - #reviews #pnr #pre-order



Blurb


He hasn’t forgotten her, and she sure hasn’t forgiven him. 
Jessica Macks is a she-wolf on the run from a band of murderous rogues. When she finds a job at a shifter bar, it seems like a safe haven from her hunted life on the road. But the minute she walks through the swinging doors of the Blue Moon Saloon and comes face-to-face with the man she once loved, she’s tempted to march right back out. No way, no how is she risking her heart to that infuriating alpha bear again. 

Simon Voss thought he lost everything in an ambush months before: his home, his family, his past. His new job at the Blue Moon Saloon is a desperately needed fresh start on life. Then along comes Jessica, the irresistible she-wolf his clan forced him to reject years before. When Simon is obliged to hire Jessica and work side by side with the one woman to ever make his bear go wild, he’s half in heaven, half in hell. He hasn’t forgotten her, and she sure as hell hasn’t forgiven him. Is this just another path to heartbreak or his last chance to claim his destined mate? 

* A paranormal romance with adult content. The perfect read for fans of strong heroines, alpha heroes, werewolves and shapeshifters, red-hot cowboys, romantic westerns, paranormal suspense, action-adventure romance, and fantasy romance! *




My Review

Check out that cover, I really like it!

Onto the book.

Jessica and her sister are trying to find somewhere safe they can settle down, they come across a small town that looks perfect, it's a mixture of humans and shifters, the shifters are under Ty's control his the Alpha and his fair but I have a feeling his fierce too!

Jessica is a wolf shifter and she is hurting, the man she loved deserted her and then her clan was killed by the blue bloods who have it in their heads that shifters have to stick with shifters of their own kind.

Simon and Soren are bear shifters, big and burly they are running the local saloon, but need some help, the place needs a woman's touch.

When Tina, Ty's sister introduces the sisters to the brothers Jessica is shocked to see the man that deserted her running the bar.

What entails is a mixture of ignoring each other, pining, the odd touch, keeping it professional, I wondered if either would ever give in and talk things through, luckily Soren makes them eventually.

I found the characthers enjoyable to read about, the author lets us get to know them before they get down to the nitty-gritty! 

The story line was interesting, I definitely don't like the blue bloods.   There is some fighting and other dangers mixed into the story to keep it exciting.

It is my first book from this author and I have a feeling it's a spinoff series from checking out other books.

I will definitely be reading more from this author as I enjoyed this story.
