A quick read but an enjoyable one. I just wish the story was longer.

Alpha bears who find their mates plus a little conflict between alphas along the way.

If you like shifter tales you will like this one.

BBW Paranormal Shapeshifter Mail-Order Romance
by Anya Nowlan
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Every book in this series is Absolutely SPECTACULAR! I love reading Anya Nowlan books and as I have stated before I'm a Fan for Life. OMG! Excitement is just one word I felt when it came to reading this collection of books, It has Bears, Wolves, Tigers and Lions to . I love all the characters in this book and the series. OMW! I know I would love to move to Shifter Grove! writing has never ever disappointed me. The storyline is strong, engaging and Fantastic. Her characters are amazing, thoughtful, powerful, exhilarating and lovable. The Dialogue is fascinating, humorous and realistic. This series is a best seller. The Sassy Shifter Brides Complete Series can be read as standalone books, but you will want to read all of them no matter which book you start reading book 5 or book 1. There is a lot action and so much excitement. I couldn't put it down. The storyline will captured your attention immediately and sweep you into the world of Shifters.

Hearts Laid Bear
What a great story to start! This is enjoyable, well written and the scenes are fabulous. I couldn't stop reading. This is Kacey and Warren story. Kacey is a Nurse that was tired of her mother sending her friends sons her way. Warren is a gorgeous Were-Bear who left his clan to start new. This is a charming, humorous, feel-good "fated mate" story. The dialogue is fun with a inventive story.
No More Lion
I must admit I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Liza and Rake. Liza missed her girlfriend and she like the gorgeous sexy Lion when last visit Shifter Grove. Rake didn't intend to be like his father. The story is a totally absorbing, exciting page turner that you can't help but to keep reading until you finish the story. The characters are exciting, captivating, engaging and written very well.
Bear the Cold
This is a adorable book to read. Anya use magic to weaves her words into a awesome story, as I read about Aubrey and Deacon, it gave me a heartwarming feeling and it’s a fantastic read. Aubrey is working in a dead end job, but she doesn't have anything else to do. Deacon knew Aubrey was his fated mate, so he used a false name to talk to her again. This is a captivating second chance romance. I fell in love with the fourth story in this great series. The characters you get acquainted with again in this story are amazing, powerful, exhilarating and full of surprises.
Roar for Her
This was a truly awesome, delightfully romantic story! Teresa is a substitute school teacher and her contract is at it's end. Slate is a tall sexy were-tiger pilot, he signed up on the shifter app because he wanted what his friends had found, Love. But he has a problem his heat is on him. This book is imaginative and filled with passion but at its heart, there is rebellion.
The Wolves' Bride
This story is the perfect end to this collection. It features Sabra, Tyler and Trey. I felt so connected to Sabra as she is a bossy not afraid to pitch right in type of woman just the type who could handle twin werewolves. Tyler and Trey are twin Alpha wolves and they are in need of their third to complete their triad. I am convinced that this story will be steamy hot. What a real treat this story is to read. The descriptions are awesome, and the characters were alluring and funny. Many times I laughed and it's a real treat to read.

Sassy Shifter Brides

I enjoyed these stories. They short, fun , sassy reads. Each was about 7 to 8 chapters but Nowlan keeps you interested and wanting more. Each story was alittle different but with the same theme behind it. Meet your mate on an online dating site, suggest the mate to come visit Shifter Grove for a week or two and these shifter men will wine and dine their mates right between the sheets. So of you enjoy Paranormal Shifter Romances give Sassy Shifter Brides a try.

A must read set

I loved these books, they are sweet and the characters are real. Each story is unique even though it takes place in the same setting. The first story starts with there efforts to build a town being sabotaged. Warren signs up for sassy shifter's. He meets Kacey on the app. He sends her a plane ticket so they can meet. The other men sign up too. All their stories are fast paced and well written. I feel you will enjoy this box set. I give it a 5star rating.

I have read each of these stories and I love visiting Shifters Grove. Each of these brides met these shifters on Sassy Dates. Each came to Shifters Grove looking for positive changes in their lives. And the shifters felt like they were someone special after talking and interacting with the women. These are fun hot sexy reads. Enjoy I did.
