Shifter Romance
She had every reason to hate him.
Aiden “AJ” Shepherd’s mistake during a Shifter Army Enforcement rescue mission cost Ellie Ortiz’s brother, Marco, his life. Ellie hates AJ with a burning passion until a chance encounter with him on New Year’s Eve reveals he’s not the cold, heartless man she once thought him to be. Her attraction to him takes her by surprise, and she vows to ignore her feelings. When a new job puts her in contact with him every day, the heat building between them threatens to flare out of control. Her resolve to keep the sweet, sexy man in the friend zone is weakening by the day.
He’s convinced she’s his mate, but a secret could ruin everything
Whether they’re fighting off fanatics who target shifters or working together to get his shifter resort, Haven Forest, ready for the grand opening, AJ can’t get enough of Ellie. Convincing her to give him a chance, more than the one-night-of-fun idea she’s proposed, might be impossible, but he’s fallen too hard for her not to try. During a disastrous assignment with Shifters United, AJ uncovers some information that changes everything. Keeping the secret from Ellie is killing him but he might lose her forever if he tells her the truth.
When Ellie ends up at the heart of a reporter’s plot to prove the existence of shifters, she and AJ must fight their way to freedom. The survival of shifters everywhere depends on it.
Uncaged Review: This first book in a series is a good
start, and the main characters are easy to like. Ellie
leaves her job as she is being undermined in her work
by a spiteful co-worker. A chance meeting with A.J.,
the shifter who killed her twin brother in a special op,
shows her that he isn’t the heartless man she always
thought him to be. When A.J. offers her a job at a
shifter resort that his brother and him are opening,
Ellie takes the job because of being blackballed in her
town.
This book has a good amount of danger, bad guys
you will truly hate, and the romance heats up between
A.J. and Ellie. As they come to know each other, their
feelings grow stronger. But A.J. will find out the dark
path Ellie’s brother was going down before he was
killed, will it destroy the relationship? Nice story
with some fun moments, danger and hot sex scenes.
