Heidi is a very sweet wonderful character that won t back down from a fight When she and Aidan first me sparks fly The pull is strong but neither is willing to give an inch Both are very surprised to find they are not the same kind of shifter This is a nice romance but pretty clean and very sexy I enjoyed it.

For a short story the author put a lot in a little There are not many fillers with each word having a place in the story giving it a very believable plot with wonderful characters I love the mystery and how she deliverers the back ground and the history of the werebears There were some very intense passionate scenes that could give you hot flashes However I did think a few sexual words did take away from the story in book one which put it a little on the erotica side the other books are not like that but very enjoyable with passionate and lots of chemistry The author does a wonderful job of keeping your attention with a very good story line The ending was good and leads right into the next book in this series Lorelei Moone I received an Audio copy from Indie Sage PR in exchange for an honest review Thank you so very much Indie Sage PR for sending me an Audio version of Scottish Were bear Books 1 3 I m honored and grateful 5 Shifter Loving Stars For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to listen to an Audiobook and I can t even begin to tell you how thankful I am for finally getting the chance to Along with this being my first time listening to stories instead of reading them it was my first time reading Ms. Moone s work as well At first I had no clue what to expect besides the fact that the stories features shifters but boy was I in for treat It s been a long time since I ve read a shifter romance and I could not contain my excitement for this one All three of the stories were equally entertaining as well as addictive I couldn t stop listening The further I got into the stories the I fell in love with the world as it all unfolded in my mind as if it were a movie I swear I could smell the fresh air.

And the unconventional yet such beautiful love shared between the couples Nothing s ever easy and you can t always expect life s surprises which I adored the fact that within all of the stories those two things were featured because it made it realistic Ms. Moone creates a fantastic world were paranormal isn t far fetched and fighting attraction is easier said than done The Narrator Patrick Blackthorne has such a soothing voice and brought everything to life for me I am looking forward to reading of her work in the future An Unexpected Affair Clarice Adler was a character that was a romance novelist After a breakup that left her heart in a mess and a looming deadline seeking solitude in Scotland seemed like the perfect solution Writing was all that she was focused on until inspiration struck her in the most unlikely form of a farmer She was sweet and I really enjoyed how she got lost in the worlds that she created I connected with her from the beginning and even though it frustrated me a bit I understood her hesitancy towards certain situations. Derek McMillian was a character who ran a cottage and took care of his family farm that had been in his family for generations Being born and raised there made it easy to get lost in the wonderment of nature Having tourists come through wasn t something new to him and being a bear shifter he knew how to keep his distance when others were around until one woman changed everything He was a bit shy yet became brazen as things progressed His kindness really warmed my heart He also had a sexiness to him that was effortless. A Dangerous Business Aidan McMillian was a character that was a bear shifter that was part of The Alliance Uncovering a society called The Sons of Domnall that to put it lightly despised any kind of shapeshifter and trying to find out if there was behind his parents death than was let on the last thing he needed was to get distracted by a woman During the beginning I didn t really like him and wanted to smack him a few times Thankfully I started to like him as I got to the root of him as a character My heart felt for him a couple of times as well. Heidi Blackwood was a character that was a daughter of an alpha Working alongside the Alliance to destroy the society of The Sons of Domnall before they harm any shapeshifter s was the only thing on her mind until it wasn t Fighting the the attraction she had for a stubborn man should be easy right She was kind yet was quite the spit fire when need be I enjoyed her determination and how she fought for what she believed in I liked the fact that she was a wolf and how different she was from bears yet similar. A Forbidden Love Alison Campbell was a character whose job was to protect humanity from shapeshifter s Lying to get close to them seemed simple at first until she realizes that not everything is what it seems Protecting her heart is the last thing on her mind only the mission is until a shifter comes along that changes her mind I really disliked her and the hatred she had for the shifters even though I understood why overtime She was ruthless yet had a heart even though hidden at times. Jamie Abbott was a character that was the leader of The Alliance Trying his best to take down those that are bound and determined to take down not only his kind but all shifters alike was what drove him daily When a mysterious woman captures his interest he throws caution to the wind and takes chances he never thought he would before even though he still had his doubts that didn t need to be his mind Right He really knew how to stand his ground and was quite intimidating at times The risks he took shocked me. I highly recommend these three Novellas to anyone looking for reads that are quick and an absolute great escape from reality In my opinion listening to the Audio Version is the perfect way to go because it takes things to a completely different level in the way of seeing the story play out in your mind I really want to buy all three of them now as well to see which version I love the most These stories don t contain your everyday romances and supernatural becomes the norm It was a very fun experience for me and I definitely will be listening to it again I m looking forward to picking up the next two in the series A New Beginning and A Painful Dilemma If you haven t already One Clicked this Boxset Buy it Today You won t regret reading these unique and wonderful shifter stories I hope you love them as much as I did 5 Stars all around Lorelei Moone AnchorsI titled my review of this box set Anchors because all the stories featured shifters who found their mates and the bond anchored them both First a lonely.

Thoughtful shifter process Humor and adventure Novellas are quick paced and not very complex Character types are varied Predictability is passable I d suggest reading the series as a whole rather than trying to read them as individual stories. 0 Stars 4 Lorelei Moone Love this book I read it in two sittings and had a hard time putting it down Really enjoyed the character building and details put into the writing Highly recommend this book to all werebear lovers Lorelei Moone Lorelei Moone is an author of paranormal romance based in London A lover of all things sweet and caffeinated.

Brennan Lorelei Moone Full rating will come when I m finished with the whole book I was gifted a copy of the audible book in exchange for an honest review An Unexpected Affair may have some spoilers I found this to be an enjoyable story As with most paranormal stories the attraction was immediate but in this case Clarice and Derek feel that attraction but they also avoid each other for different reasons Since I got both POVs I knew what the other didn t know so I enjoyed the avoidance immensely Especially when Derek kept dropping off food and goodies for Clarice and she thought it was his wife Even though I enjoyed the avoidance I kept wondering how and when Derek and Clarice would finally get together One of the things that I think helped develop their connection was that they were able to sense each other and later each other s thoughts I loved that Derek knew when Clarice was in an accident and rode to the rescue A Dangerous Business This book didn t work as well for me as the first one I don t know if it s because Aiden and I didn t click or because I didn t click with Heidi or if it was because I didn t feel the connection between Aiden and Heidi maybe all of the above I enjoyed the suspense part of the story but felt like the beginning dragged a little for me But at the same time I wish there had been time together for Aiden and Heidi Even though Derek and Clarice didn t spend a lot of time together they were in close proximity so that their bond grew when they weren t looking leading to of a connection between them that was absent here for Aiden and Heidi There should have been time working together before he had to leave and the suspense aspect kicked in or it should have had before he had to leave to run his errand It was still good but not great A Forbidden Love Scottish Werebear 3 This book is definitely my favorite of the first three books This is what I wanted in the other 2 Jamie and Alison actually spent time together and you could feel an immediate connection between them It didn t hurt that there was also a small past between them and that Jamie had been dreaming of her since he was 12 years old So the connection was there for me Plus the suspense part of the story was extremely well done Paranormal Romance written by Lorelei Moone I was gifted a copy from the author in exchange for an honest review through IndieSage Pr. 5 Stars The Review I absolutely LOVED Patrick Blackthorne as the narrator I could listen to his pleasing narration all day His hypnotic voice smoothly turns words into images and he adds just the right hint of excitement when needed and doesn t change his voice for the female dialogue to a comical pitch like a lot of narrators do He performs perfectly and makes listening to the book a true joy. As for the book itself I liked these quick interesting and scenic stories There are three novella length stories in total and though they were short and had limited detail and exposition I was impressed with the amount of fun and imagination the author packs into each one All three had sexy engaging heroes with complicated pasts who were on exciting journeys to finding their true mates There s danger excitement rivals mystery and villainous evildoers who don t like the shifter clans This was my first bear shifter read and I enjoyed each story There wasn t a whole lot of deep emotional romance and because they were novella in length it was a quick jump to love and there wasn t a lot of character development but I still liked the setting the mythology the adventure and the characters. I ll definitely be back for Lorelei Moone

Scottish Werebears A Dangerous Business This was a cute read with danger a little mystery love story that is a little different but blends very well The characters were interesting with cross breeding and how they deal with it We learn about Aidan and what happened to his parents Here is where The Sons of Domnall feel the fear of coming face to face with an animal solitary bear found his anchor in a human who was also drifting after heartbreak Then that solitary bear s brother who was chasing shifter hunters and trying to solve a 15 year old possible murder finds his anchor in a female wolf shifter The female wolf finally has a taste of freedom from a rigidly rippled pack and her bear shifter offered her individuality. And last but not least a bear shifter living with years of guilt finds his anchor in the female that was the cause of his greatest regret One of the couples ended up with acceptable mates but you can t fight fate Lorelei Moone Individual titles were provided by author in exchange for a fair and honest review. Box set includes AN UNEXPECTED AFFAIR Third person POV Poor Derek he s a bit clueless in what to do with himself in the beginning but is such a softy sweetheart behind the gruff front he puts up Clarice is a bit fanciful but enjoyable Both characters were absolutely wonderful There really was not a lot in the way of secondary characters allowing the main focus to remain on the lead couple The chemistry while progressing at a steadily aggressive rate was something both denied until they just could not any a refreshing change to other similar stories Dialogue felt natural and appropriate The plot was full and complete for being a novella of this short length and it was written extremely well so smooth and fluid There really were not a lot of conflicts other than internal struggles but they managed in efficient and mature ways No predictability The conclusion allows Derek and Clarice their HEA but there s a nice big opening for A DANGEROUS BUSINESS to pick it right up at the end Although not a huge fan of paranormal I honestly would love to read the next book in this saga to see if my suspicions are correct Thank you Ms Moone for the opportunity to read your work. It s been 15 years since his parents died and Aiden is still searching for the answers that tie their death to the Sons of Domnall now as a member of the Alliance The Rannock Alpha has sent Heidi his own daughter to be the wolf representative for the Alliance to watch and insure balance for all shifter species Neither Aiden nor Heidi ever expected to find their mate in their Alliance partner Both lead characters are strong and mostly smart The secondary characters include Derek and Clarice book 1 as well as a few new ones The chemistry is instantaneous although they both try to avoid it at first Dialogue is very good so it character interaction The plot felt like a serial episode that a complete story There are many loose ends and open possibilities in every direction Flow is very smooth and easy to read The conflict is not easy to ignore but somehow it is avoided as a non issue HEA is implied but never seen through yet Already ADB is leading the reader into AFL This one just did not feel as complete as AUA and the serial aspect to the ending is much pronounced in this one leading to some disappointment I d recommend this series to those love smart and well thought out shifters BUT I d suggest you wait until the series is released in it s entirety to read as one full length novel instead of several micro novellas. 8 Stars 4 A FORBIDDEN LOVE Third person POV narrative Jamie is a werebear and the Alliance leader in Edinburgh Alison is the human informant Both have secrets Secondary characters consist mostly of those we ve met or have been told about in the previous two novellas. The lead characters are only just strong enough to carry the novella I m not sure what it is about this installment of the series but it fell a bit flat for me As with this series the chemistry is magnetic and attraction is immediate Maybe because a chunk of the plot was already preset in the last book Maybe because we know almost all of the characters I m not sure The secondary cast was supportive and provided crucial gap fillers The plot felt flat without the dimension and dynamics one would hope for in a longer story but it is a quick read and provided enough content to make it through The first third of the book lagged but the pace eventually picked up and finally provided a smooth ride There were some conflicts but there s really no going against the mating bond so in actuality the conflicts are rendered moot A minor secondary story line is cast out and resolved within the primary story also giving indication that it ll be the next book in the series Predictability was moderate The conclusion is passable While giving Jamie and Alison their assumed happily ever after we are left with many openings Matty s reunion the prisoners swearing vengeance upon both Alison and the Alliance the Alliance s threat to the recent odd matings Though this was not my favorite volume of the ongoing saga I do look forward to learning about Matty and what he s been up to in Glasgow Overall I think I d only recommend this series to others once all volumes or installments are out Ms Moone states that it can be read as a stand alone but I truly feel that you d lose a lot of the comprehension of the ongoing story if you picked it up half way through. 9 Stars 4 Overall Not a bad series when shes not writing about sexy bear shifters and their strong willed curvaceous love interests Lorelei can be found baking cookies or cakes for her family.

Come into the story they are a secret society of humans sworn to destroy all shapeshifters, I hoped in the end they would both be able to overcome all of their obstacles and take a chance on each other even though they were from very different worlds. I crossed my fingers that even though things were a bit forbidden between the two of them that they d fight for one another and achieve their missions: In the end I wanted nothing than for them to be together despite how dangerous it was and create a kind of peace among both of their worlds, 3 Stars 4 A DANGEROUS BUSINESS Third person POV Novella under 100 pages Can stand alone but it would be better to read in order, Most of her titles are also available in print as well as audio so you can enjoy them in your favourite format, Lorelei also writes contemporary erotic romance as L Moone site_link .
